Synopsis: 

Learn at last, the secret origin of the Last Son of Mars -- J'onn J'onzz! How did he become Hank Henshaw, director of the DEO and what is his mysterious connection to the Danvers family. All will be revealed in this Arrowverse Beginnings coda.

Intentions: 

Welcome to the fifth and final installment of ARROWVERSE BEGINNINGS! It is not a full origin or even the full story... it is the Beginning of a Legend! Unlike the previous Arrowverse Beginnings entries, this not an expanded pilot movie. It is more of a "Very Special Episode" or a "Backdoor Pilot". The objective of this fan edit is simply to have fun telling an abbreviated origin of my favourite Martian.

Change List: 

The fan edit is comprised of material from 3 episodes:

ep 4 "LIVEWIRE"
--the flashbacks of Hank Henshaw recruiting Jeremiah Danvers into the DEO
--CUT Livewire plot
--CREATED a one minute "Previously on" recap, and was even able to sneak in a Chocos reference!

ep17 "MANHUNTER"
--flashbacks of J'onn's encounter with Jeremiah and Hank
--J'onn recruiting Alex into the DEO
--CUT DEO investigation plot

ep11 "STRANGE VISITOR FROM ANOTHER PLANET"
--CUT the entire Cat Grant storyline
--ADDED a shot of SG and MM flying together from ep10 "Childish Things"
--ADDED custom closing credits scored to Zayde Wolfe's "Heroes"
