Secret Origins

When the planet Krypton's core grows unstable and scientist Jor-El discovers that his world will soon die, he has one last hope : to rescue his infant son, Kal-El. Rocketing his only child into space, the battered spacecraft crashes onEarth near Smallville, Kansas, where it is discovered by Jonathan and Martha Kent. Shocked to uncover the precious cargo amongst the wreckage, they adop the Kryptonian infant, naming him Clark and raising him as their own. As the child grows, so do his powers of superhuman strength, speed, invulnerability and his ability to fly, among others. The Kents instill in their son a strong work ethic, the valuesof generosity and kindness, and the importance of using his powers for good. After college, Clark moves from Smallville to the big cityof Metropolis, taking a job as a reporter for the Daily Planet newspaper. Feeling the call to heroism, he adopts the identity of Superman. His heroic adventures pit him against some of history's greatest villains, send him to alternate universes and even reunite himwith fellow Kryptonians. Co-created by Canadian Joe Shuster and American Jerry Siegel, Superman is a timeless inspiration to all.
