Synopsis for Martian Manhunter: "The Wizard who Conquered J'onn J'onzz"

Roy Roggins, a thief, steals the magical Wand of Wodessa from an estate collection, beating magician-criminal Argus Weede's gang to it, and appears to prove the wand's power by using it to defeat J'onn J'onzz. Roggins is accepted by the gang and taken to Weede, with the Manhunter (who had been feigning defeat) secretly trailing. But when Weede acquires the wand, he energizes it with a "magical element" and activates its real magic. J'onzz is hard-pressed to deal with Weede's magic until he becomes invisible, snatches the wand away, and destroys it. Then he takes Weede and his gang to jail.
