Is Martian Manhunter the Ness of DC?

[LordTrump]

Franchise is never used or even rereleased, only really used in team/crossover stories, and never shows up anywhere else an us even passed up for less deserving characters to get spotlight. And psychic.

The Mother series is a finished series; creator Shigesoto Itoi has no interest in continuing the series following the third game's conclusion of the story. So, it's apples and oranges as J'onn belongs to a shared universe that continues existing, and doesn't have rights spread across several companies.
