The Idol-Head of Diabolu, a Martian Manhunter Podcast 024: JLA Day Minus-One (1977)

Podcast- JLA: Day Minus-One (1977) The Manhunter from Mars offers a supplement to JLMay-- The JLA: Year One Podcast Crossover Event! In the second edition of JLA: Day One Diabolu Frank discusses his (and apparently Comics Should Be Good's Brian Cronin's) favorite origin story for the team from  Justice League of America #144 (July, 1977)!  Another very important tale of the Sleuth from Outer Space, "The Origin  of the Justice League - Minus One!" offers a prequel to the better  known Silver Age story that firmly grounds the team (but especially  J'onn J'onzz) in the paranoid 1950s McCarthy era America! This setting  and the influence of the Steve Englehart/Dick Dillon story have  permeated the Alien Atlas' modern interpretation, arguably having more  impact on how the character is perceived by fans today than any comic  that preceded it!
