Summary
Kal-El is the last survivor of the planet Krypton. When Jor-El and Lara learned that Krypton was doomed and going to be destroyed, they sent away baby Kal in a rocket, aimed towards Earth where they knew their son would be strong under the yellow sun. The rocket landed in Kansas, where Kal was discovered and adopted by Jonathan and Martha Kent, and given the name of Clark Kent. After he got a job as a reporter at the Daily Planet newspaper, he became the superhero known as Superman and a founding member of the Justice League.

Notable Attacks and Techniques:
- Solar Energy Absorption: This is the main source of Superman's powers, his cells act as solar batteries that absorb different types of solar energy such as Earth's yellow sun, granting him vast superhuman abilities.
- Flight: Superman can fly at high speeds by manipulating the graviton particles around his body allowing him to defy gravity.
- Heat Vision: Superman can fire beams of intense heat from his eyes, capable of burning through steel, destroying Parademons and bore into Darkseid's eye sockets.
- Accelerated Healing: Superman possesses a limited, but rapid healing factor which is further enhanced by his exposure to direct sunlight. Despite being fatally wounded by Doomsday, he entered a regenerative coma, where he recovered from his wounds. Upon being exposed to the sun's rays, all of the injuries he had sustained during his fight with Cyborg Superman had instantaneously healed.
- X-Ray Vision: Superman can project harmless X-rays from his eyes, allowing him to see through solid objects except lead. He used this to see through Batman's smokescreen and look through Batman's mask to discover his identity.
- Underwater Breathing: While his physiology appears human, Superman can breathe and speak clearly underwater without any aid and can handle the bottom depths pressure of the ocean unfazed.
- Super Hearing: Superman's hearing is very sensitive, allowing him to detect even the faintest of sounds.
