Synopsis for "J'onn J'onzz Witch Doctor"

Captain Harding sends John Jones to track down Cleat Moss and his gang in the Asian jungle to which they have escaped. Moss is now in the village of Lonaku, and threatens to have his gang kill the villagers unless they deliver a large amount of ivory tusks to him. Kowanga, the village witch doctor, opposes Moss. Jones becomes J'onn J'onzz to help, but realizes appearing in his Martian identity when John Jones had been sent there will endanger his secret. Accordingly, he disguises himself as Marsmann, another witch doctor, and offers aid to Kowanga and the tribe. J'onn J'onzz thwarts Moss's attempts to harm the villagers. But, when fire saps the Martian's power, Kowanga uses a rainmaking trick to put out the flames and restore J'onzz to normal. The Manhunter defeats the crooks, and gives the credit to Kowanga.
