Biography
Born on Krypton to Jor-El and Lara Lor-Van, Kal-El was sent to Earth after the planet was destroyed by Thanos and most of the Kryptonians absorbed as citizens of Apokolips. He became all their hope for the future of Krypton or that one day those enslaved by Thanos would be freed.

Landing on Earth, Kal-El was adopted by Jonathan and Martha Kent, two farmers of Smallville, Kansas, who raised him by the name of Clark Kent. They kept his nature as an alien a secret, and he was raised as a human.

However, with time, he discovered his alien abilities, such as flight, super strength, resilience, healing, speed, arctic breath, among many others, and started thinking he was a monster. His parents eventually revealed the truth to him, after showing the ship he was sent on Earth, which the couple kept hidden.

After his father died by a heart attack, Clark saw that he needed to move on and help his mother, as her job couldn't afford all the money to pay their farm's bills. He moved to the city of Metropolis, where he got a job as a reporter for the Daily Planet. There, he met J. J. Jameson, Lois Lane, and Peter Parker, becoming instantly infatuated with the redhead reporter.

Their first job together was investigating a series of illegal shipments conducted by LexCorp, many of which were seemingly linked to the CEO Lex Luthor. There, Clark used his powers to uncover a large conspiracy, meeting one of Luthor's lackeys, John Corben, who had kidnaped both Lois and Peter. Under a new alias, Superman, Clark was able to take down Corben, arresting and his goons. However, no proof connected him to Lex Luthor, who had smartly covered his tracks. Unknown to anyone on Metropolis, Lex was actually selling high advanced technology for the Lin Kuei and the Black Dragon, in turn granting him an alliance with Thanos.
