So DC did a recent Looney Toons/DC Heroes crossover series which-- much to my delight-- featured this:
And this inspired me. I already have a Marvin the Martian tattoo on my right shoulder, and it looks kind of like this, but with the gun pointing straight forward:
So now I think I need a Martian Manhunter tattoo on my left. (At some other point, we'll discuss the epic John Carter of Mars back tattoo.) Which way do I go with it? On the one hand, there's the traditional Martian Manhunter:
But this is highly detailed and very prone to being done poorly. Or at the very least- any mistakes are going to be very noticeable. On the other hand, I could go for a cartoony/anime Martian Manhunter like this:
This is starting to appeal to me. Not only is it simpler and easier to get a good rendering from a tattoo artist- but it's cartoony nature seems to fit better with the Marvin the Martian that I already have.

Re: My Martian Manhunter Tattoo
What about a Bruce Timm take on Martian Manhunter - like this?
Outside of the comics, that's my favorite take on him.
