The "fake martians" from the JL cartoon are a loose adaptation of DC Comics' evil White Martians, ancient enemies of J'onn's race. From earlier comments, I'm pretty sure the "fungoids" are the Gnards and/or Paeecs from Mars Attacks!

And "sarmak," for the record, originally comes from the '90s anthology "War of the Worlds: Global Dispatches," used by Burroughs' Red Martians to refer to Wells' crew. It has since been adopted by large chunks of the fandom.
