Indexer Notes
This story is a follow-up to "...And So My World Ends!" from Justice League of America (DC, 1960 series) #71. In that story, Mars was devastated and left uninhabitable by war, and the surviving Martians traveled into space to find a new world to call home, followed by J'onn J'onzz. In this story we learn how they ended up on the planet Vonn, and ultimately decide to stay there for their new home. J'onn J'onzz and his fellow Martians are next seen in Justice League of America #115.
