## Biography

### Early Life

Kal-El was born on the planet Krypton to Jor-El and Lara Lor-Van.

### The Last Son of Krypton

Kal-El was born on the day known on Earth as February 29, 1980, in the outskirts of Kandor on planet Krypton to Jor-El and his wife Lara Lor-Van in the wake of a military coup d’état led by General Zod. Following a difficult birth, Kal-El's first cries were heard by the nearby Rondors outside the House of El Citadel.

The first Kryptonian conceived from natural birth on the planet in centuries since the end of the age of Krypton's cosmic expansion, Kal-El was Jor-El's proof that their race could continue on past the planet's demise. In the time leading to Kal's birth, Jor-El made preparations to save his son, developing a specialized pod to deliver him to Earth, located many light years away from Krypton. Jor-El deduced his son would develop astonishing abilities during his time on the planet, becoming a godlike figure he'd hoped would lead the planet's population to greatness. Moments before bidding his son farewell, Jor-El bonded the genetic information within Krypton's Growth Codex to the cell's of Kal-El's body, after which he finally placed a command key into the starship.

As his parents started the launch sequence for his ship, however, General Zod and his forces invaded the Citadel and engaged his former friend in a fierce duel, desperate to retrieve the Codex and abort the launch. Lara, however, succeeded in launching the starship, inducing an enraged Zod to mortally stab her husband through a gap in his armor, killing him. Determined to retrieve the Codex, Zod ordered Kal-El's pod shot down, but at that moment the Sapphire Guards overtook the Sword of Rao, destroying their aircraft. This gave just enough time for the Phantom Drive of Kal-El's starcraft to activate, allowing Kal-El to escape to his freedom.

In the wake of Zod and the Sword of Rao's capture, the birth and mere existence of Kal-El was hushed, as was the theft of the Codex. It was decided to downplay Jor-El's transgressions so as not to trouble the populace further. Lara herself escaped prosecution, being allowed to witness the sentencing of Zod and his compatriots. In his last words to Lara, Zod promised her that she was mistaken in her belief that her son was safe, shouting that he himself would find Kal-El one day. Disturbed by Zod's threats, Lara inwardly hoped that the Phantom Zone would be able to hold him and prevent Zod's words from coming true.

Soon after, Lara spent time in the Citadel's armory, idly examining the scarred armor that Jor-El had worn to his death. Carefully focusing on the crest, Lara was reminded of Kal and the hope in the future that he offered. As a nuclear volcano erupted and bore down on her and the Citadel, Lara addressed her final words to her son, asking him to build a better world.

### Raised in Kansas

The starship emerged near to the gas giant Saturn, and continued on its course to Earth. It landed largely undetected in the rural town of Smallville, Kansas within the property of the Kent farm. Upon seeing the alien craft's flaming aftermath, local farmers Jonathan and Martha Kent (who were driving home from a grocery run) sought to put out the flames to prevent further damage to the farm, all the while noticing the craft that had crashed in the middle of their farm and found Kal and adopted him and raise him by the name Clark Kent.

### New Powers

He then thwarts a jewel thief attempting to scale the Solow Building, captures robbers fleeing police and depositing their getaway cabin cruiser on Wall Street, rescues a girl's cat from a tree, and saves Air Force One after a lightning strike destroys an engine. The "caped wonder" is an instant celebrity. Daily Planet boss Perry White wants the newspaper to find out more information about him. Superman visits Lois at her penthouse apartment the next night for an interview and takes her for a flight; Lois subsequently writes an article naming him "Superman".

### Stopping Lex's Rocket

A powerless Superman requests help from Lex from prison to help him restore his abilities by sending him to the sun. Through S.T.A.R. Labs CCTV footage, Superman realises Rudy is the Parasite due to Lobo's grenade which was an organic EMP. The organic EMP consisted of a purple foam/liquid and was designed to absorb any and all energy it came into contact with, but instead bonded with Rudy's DNA to create the Parasite. Lex deduces that the Parasite would have gained Superman's weaknesses from absorbing his energy, and reveals that he has enlisted Lobo after buying out S.T.A.R. Labs.

### The Final Fight With The Parasite

Lex, Clark, and Lobo devise a plan to lure the Parasite into Metropolis' power plan and use Lobo's Kryptonite ring in hopes to weaken it. The plan becomes unsuccessful when the ring fails prompting Lobo to suicide-bomb the Parasite. Lex equips the ring with a magnifying pulse rifle and shoots the Parasite, ultimately taking it down. Lex then double-crosses Superman but is stopped by an alive J'onn, who faked his death using his abilities.

Suddenly, the power plant begins to overload. Superman stopped the plant with freeze breath but Parasite attacks him, Superman defeated Parasite.

### Earth's Man of Tomorrow
