    It's a tie between Malefic and Despero.

    Normally I would say Despro but I kinda like the idea of Mr. V brining out the detective in MM

    What about one of the white martians? Or just the group as a whole.

    @chicken_chokergeist: the white Martians are definitely better as villains. Having Blanc or Malefic representing them as martian Manhunter's enemies would definitely be cool.

    Although Despero is a team busting JLA heavy hitter foe, it would be interesting if MM went up against him more regularly as his own archnemeis. Malefic has been done in the Pre New 52 universe so this would be interesting for New 52 MM's future.

    @avenging_x_bolt He's a Superman villain but honestly his powers make him a more suitable villain for J'onn

    Why?

    Sure he is a demon, but usually he and Jason Blood are "good people".

    @vitalius: Jason is. I've never seen Etrigan be completely good.

    Think about the parallels.

    An alien learning what it means to be human.

    vs.

    A human who is chained to a demon.

    And power-wise they are a great match.

    Well they could also be great friends to each other. Since I read Demons Knights and i fall in love with the characters, they form a wierd but fun and amazing team.

    @avenging_x_bolt: In Demon Knights he was never good. I haven't read all of his pre-52 appearances but as far as I could tell he was even worse.

    @joygirl: I'm pretty sure Etrigan has always been sketchy at best (Sort of like Vandall Savage). The bigger difference between Pre52 and New52 would actually be the host Jason Blood. Blood seems to have lightened much more than his original portrayal. The key difference is that in Demon Knights Jason happens to care greatly for how his actions affect others but has no problem screwing over the beast whenever he needs to, whereas, in Pre Flashpoint he was mainly disinterested in protecting anyone outside of his immediate inner circle.
