Synopsis:
John Jones is assigned to track gang boss, Cleat Moss, to the asian jungle. Moss is threatening a local village in an attempt to get them to give him valuable ivory tusks. Fearing the appearance of Martian Manhunter in the area could expose his secret identity, Jones disguises himself as Marsmann, a witch doctor from the land of magic. Using his powers, he is able to protect the village. With an assist from the local witch doctor, Kowanga, J’onzz stops the gang, before arresting them as John Jones.
