Synopsis for Martian Manhunter: "Menace of the Martian Weapons!"

When some Martian weapons appear on Earth, they are found by gangster Buggsy Roach and used by him in crime-sprees. John Jones is seen changing into J'onn J'onzz by Captain Harding, but Harding assumes that Jones has been physically transformed somehow by one of the Martian weapons. J'onzz's invisibly causes an explosion that destroys the weapons and allows him to capture Roach and his gang, but John Jones tells Harding later on he was able to find the weapon that "transformed" him back to his human state before it, too, was destroyed.
