Holy shit! This is it, the actual comic I read was a copy of JLX. I thought I had temporary insanity as a kid, reading a comic about Mr. X, leader of a teenage group of mutants, whose actual identity was the Martian Manhunter.

Oh yeah, I loved these comics as a kid and wished there were more. I recently found a collection just to read back through these for how fun they were.
