Ed's Notes: Not to be confused with the Manhunter or the Martian Manhunter, these are the one-time mooks of the 
Guardians of the Universe who later went all BSG-Cylon on them and rebelled.  They also make up the bulk of the cannon fodder in the DC Legends mobile game, of which I am a huge fan.  And as cannon fodder goes, these guys will represent a slightly tougher challenge than "thugs."

  2. I believe a few alterations should be made to the Manhunter Android. Manhunter III, Mark Shaw, wears the faceplate of a Manhunter Android, with associated powers given from it. Manhunters possess miniature Oan Power Batteries behind their masks, in their heads, which can, I believe, raise the power of the mask's abilities beyond what Shaw's mask provided, as they do the power of the baton's energy blast, as well as giving the ability to steal Emotional Energy for personal use. They are also capable of flight. I believe the following stats should be present:

    ---

    (Powers affected by Power Reserve: *)

    *Bomb: 10
    -
    *Chameleon: 12
    -
    Comprehend Languages: 20
    -
    *Danger Sense: 10
    -
    *Directional Hearing: 10
    -
    Energy Absorption: 18 (From any attack using Emotional Spectrum Energy of the same color as the installed Power Battery, as well as complimentary Emotional Spectrum Energy, using BODY. If Blue Emotional Spectrum Energy (Hope) is absorbed, it combines with the Green Emotional Spectrum Energy (Willpower) within the Manhunter's power battery, and doubles (*2) the strength of all powers and weapon powers until it has been used up, if no further energy is absorbed. WILL can be used to attempt to steal nearby Emotional Spectrum Energy, even if not directed against the Manhunter. The miniature Power Batteries in their heads can be exchanged for others, some Manhunters having the original Oan green batteries, others the Sinestro Corps yellow batteries, thus it is likely all color batteries can be exchanged. Complimentary colors of different installed Power Batteries (such as Blue/Green) have the doubling effect, whereas clashing colors (such as Yellow/Green) cannot be absorbed into the Power Reserve, and halve (/2) all powers and weapon powers for a turn when used against the Manhunter, the complimentary/clashing colors dependent on the Power Battery color currently installed.).
    -
    *Extended Hearing: 10
    -
    *Flight: 40
    -
    *Life Sense: 40 (Only to detect Lantern Power Ring wearers of the same color as installed Power Battery.)
    -
    Power Reserve: 18 (To either enhance stats, or recharge a Power Ring, must have absorbed full reserve of Emotional Energy first to recharge ring. The correct colored Power Battery installed will only recharge the matching colored ring.).
    -
    Recall: 20
    -
    *Regeneration: 4
    -
    Skin Armor: 4
    -
    *Telescopic Vision: 10
    -
    *Thermal Vision: 13
