Superman (Earth One)

==Summary==
Sent from the destroyed world of Krypton, Kal-El was found and raised by the Kents as their son Clark, trying to blend in and hide his growing powers. Deciding to pursue a normal life and riches via the advantages his talents would offer, his hand was instead forced when Tyrell, a representative of the Dheronian race that destroyed his home world, pursued him to Earth to execute both him and the planet. With no other choice, he revealed himself to the world and defeated Tyrell, deciding to continue as a 'superhero', going on to battle enemies like Parasite, the Luthors, and his uncle Zod-El, the true architect of Krypton's destruction, as Superman.
