Martian Crystal

The Phantom Zone crystal.

The Phantom Zone crystal was a powerful artifact that the Martian Manhunter carried with him to trap Phantom Zone escapees and other entities. It was later destroyed by the Persuader.

The crystal is a similar device to the Crystal of El, which is carried by members of the House of El.

Powers and Abilities[]

Like the Crystal of El, the red crystal was able to remove wraiths from possessed humans.

According to the Legion of Super-Heroes, the red crystal was used in a future alternate reality to remove Brainiac from a possessed Chloe Sullivan. However, due to the intervention of the Persuader, the crystal was destroyed before this could take place, creating a different future.

Vulnerabilities[]

The red crystal was vulnerable to the Persuader's Atomic Axe, which was able to cut through atoms and surpass a Kryptonian's invulnerability, when he traveled through time and destroyed it.

Season Six[]

Martian crystal

The Martian Manhunter uses the crystal to extract the Dr. Hudson phantom from Clark.

The Martian Manhunter used the red crystal to remove Dr. Hudson from Clark Kent's mind and body after he tracked him down and telepathically entered Clark's mind to defeat Hudson.

Season Eight[]

Kara Bloodline

Kara uses the red crystal to extract Faora from Lois

When Clark and Lois Lane were transported to the Phantom Zone, they escaped using a portal built by Zor-El along with Kara Kent, who sought out the Martian Manhunter to get his crystal to capture Faora, who had also escaped and inhabited Lois' body.

The Persuader time-traveled to the present where he destroyed the red crystal, preventing Clark from containing Brainiac, who had possessed Chloe.
