User blog comment:Evil117/Battle of Cosmic Green men: Martian Manhunter (Comics) vs Piccolo/@comment-5232784-20130427040024

Some interesting things to consider

1. While both are telepathic, Martian Manhunter is singled out as one of the most powerful telepaths in the DC universe, and Dc is known for its absurdly overpowred superheroes

2. Piccolo's Ki blasts are capable of dissolving Manhunter with a blast, or at least horrendously damaging him, posibly into a severely weakened, crumpled form. One ultra powerful Ki blast would give mr Piccolo the victory

3. Though both can last ultra long in a fight, thanks to comparable superhuman endurance, Piccolo's Ki powers will grow weaker over a prolonged fight, while Manhunter's energy based and other attack powers wont

4. If Piccolo's head is blown off or removed, he dies. Manhunter however can recover from such a wound, and perhaps just keep on fighting

5. Manhunter's shapeshifting abilities should allow for him to heal from any wound, no matter how terrible, with a single change into another form (he would have to be totally obliterated for him to die)

6. Manhunter can change into alien monsters so terrible, they can pierce invincible flesh with not problem (as in the picture of Manhunter all but slaying Ultraman in the pics above)

My Verdict: though Piccolo's Ki attacks are impressive, Manhunter's telepathy is more likely to be stronger than Piccolo's, and therefore he can overcome him mentally, winning without a punch being thrown. Manhunter's shapeshifting and horrid alien monster forms could make short work of Piccolo, and Manhunter can survive things Piccolo cannot. While Piccolo has the advantage in hand to hand combat techniques, his powerful Ki weakens during a prolonged battle, while Manhunter's formidable long range energy weaponry does not.

This is close, but I give this to manhunter, due to telepathic superiority, shape shiofting and its healing capabilities, being able to survive with his head blown off, superior strength, and the fact that his energy based attacks do not weaken over time.

This is a very tight victory, however.
