The only Earth people who know where we are, or who are capable of traveling to this world are my former colleagues in the Justice League! While I cannot understand why they would do such a thing, I can think of no other possibility. One of them is the killer! 
It's beautiful isn't it? It almost reminds me of home. I don't think the human race understands just how precious this planet is. That's why I want you in the Justice League, Animal Man.
Green Arrow! You're firing an incendiary shaft at me! No...!
Thanks to your arrogance and stupidity, I have now seen two worlds die. I will never forgive you for this.
No, not me Superman... It's the entire universe that will have to pay the price of your failure! I warned you that you were dealing with forces beyond your comprehension... but you were too overconfident... too egotistical... to listen!
Earth people possess the same super-powers on Mars as I possess on Earth!
Sit down, Gardner... this instant... or I swear I'll... I'll call Batman.
Justice? For who? My wife and daughter? Myself? The man who orchestrated my murder still walks the streets. Half the League you knew is gone. Justice is dead, Barry. And the rest of the universe is about to catch up.
They were Terrified. But they didn't break ranks. They were horrified, but they stood Firm. And the shining Truth in that moment -- is that Never was the line between hero and villain so inescapably Clear.
I am Mars' sole survivor. There is a reason for that.
Physical force is useless in this… Soul-War that we’re fighting.
The Imaginal Realm is not so much a place, Arthur… as a state of being. A doorway to -- universal consciousness.
Who would have done something like this? Many of them are but children.
You still believe there's hope, Justice League? Look around you!! This is Armageddon!
We're the Justice League. We've beaten up real gods and made'em cry. You are nothing to us.
On Mars I was a Manhunter, a police detective charged with protecting my people from telepathic crime.
Your grammar is impeccable Wonder Woman. It appears to have stunned him.
A savage unbound. Lashing out blindly. Innocents in his path. Only Kyle notices... Only Green Lantern turns his back on mortal enemies to protect lives... of men and women who believe him a monster. Without much left resembling a face... I smile.. then nothing more.
Change is life, Clark. The League is a living, breathing thing, and sometimes... it too changes, in all ways but one... old heroes may fade away... but the League never dies.
Let's get this over with. I have a vacation to get back to.
Destroy? Wouldn't it be simpler, and less barbaric, to open a dialogue -- ?
You lunatic! I asked for a diversion! Destroying the center of Manhattan is more than a diversion!
My name is J'onn J'onzz. I am the sole survivor of a ravaged world. I will not see the same thing happen to Earth.
There isn't much Justice in this world. Perhaps that's why it's so satisfying -- to occasionally make some.
For such superior specimens, you don't seem to learn very quickly.
Doomed. Got it. Well, these things happen.
A leader cannot lead if he appears ludicrous to those who would follow him.
The League leads. When there is a Crisis, the other heroes -- and the world -- look to us first to deal with it, to rally others. We set the example.
It is time for our people to hear the voice of reason rather than rage.
Perhaps if we had "freaked" when there was a fight, my young friend, Mars might still be a living planet instead of a barren wasteland.
I'm not saying it's our time. But eventually -- they'll need us again. I'm talking about the League. It's the true beauty of what we created, Arthur -- for all its changes -- the League never really changes.
Unfortunately, your clairvoyant abilities make it somewhat… difficult for me to read your thoughts. I find similar obscurity in the minds of psychopaths and schizophrenics.
Home. Since rescuing the others, I've been thinking a lot about that word. What it means. What happens when it's lost. And why seemingly every sentient species will do anything to protect it.
I've been on this world for... how many years? I can't say for sure -- but long enough to be comfortable here... as comfortable as a Martian could ever be among men.
I dance with the past; I pray to it; I honor my world and family... I hold them close as breath, then gently... so gently... let them go. I've come home.
The future is worth it. All the pain. All the tears. The future is worth the fight.
By all the gods of Mars! They think I'm the cartoon character!
I never saw Abin Sur again. But because of him, I have called his two successors... Friends
For the last month, I have searched for the impossible. And all that time, I have asked questions. Tonight I get my answers.
Of all the human emotions I have observed... revenge is the only one not foreign to my people.
Home. Since rescuing the others, I've been thinking a lot about that word. What it means. What happens when it's lost. And why seemingly every sentient species will do anything to protect it.
Think like they think. Use their thoughts to fuel your needs. Your form is dictated by function and influenced by situation.
Martians only have one word for cursed. It's all we've ever needed.
I am going to ask you this question one time. You can tell me, or I can tear it from your mind. One hurts, one doesn't. It matters little to me which option you choose.
Batman was right. I was blinded by my desire for the others to truly be members of my race.
For as long as I can remember, my only wish was to find another like me. I told myself just one would be enough. Just one would give me hope that our race could survive. And now, to come face to face with the very thing I hoped for only to find you.
"Shoot first and ask questions later" is supposed to be a wry aside, not a credo.
It cannot end like this!
Mister President -- shut up.
Black Adam!! The time has come for a RECKONING!
You all look ridiculous.
