A small Martian resistance movement used a nerve gas to paralyze the Imperium about 500 years later, but J'onn was the sole survivor of the last raid. After two Earth astronuats discovered the statis chmabers imprisoning them, the Imperium were freed and set their sights on Earth. They infiltrated the highest ranking positions pushing reforms to disarm the world's nuclear weaponry, leaving the planet open to attack.
As a beachhead they installed factories to pump out an ionized gas to cover the Earth in eternal darkness for their troops to mobilze. A group of Earth heroes united to stop the invasion, but were captured. The Imperium leader personally came to Earth to kill J'onn to fully eradicate the Martians. Unbeknoest to the heroes and the Imperium, Batman sabotaged the ion chamber to bring back sunlight killing off its invasion force. The Imperium flagship then rertreated, leaving their soldiers to die on Earth.
