History

Kong Kenan, or as he would be known in Western notation, Kenan Kong, was born to Kong Zhongdan and Kuang Maitai. His parents were believers of Truth, Democracy and Justice, with his mother being a member of the Freedom Fighters of China known as the Liberty Goddess. Unfortunately his mother was killed in a plane accident when Kenan was young, causing his father to join the Freedom Fighters, although Kenan only found out about his parents' roles in the Freedom Fighters at a much later date. Due to the nature of his mother's death, Kenan would often bully Luo Lixxin, who was the son of Luo Longde, who owned the airliner his mother died on.

One day while beating up Lixxin, his victim was attacked by Blue Condor, a super villain member of the Freedom Fighters. Reacting out of instinct, Kenan threw a soda can at Blue Condor's head, causing him to flee the scene. This was recorded by Laney Lan, a reporter, who heralded him as a hero. Picking up on Kenan's success the Ministry of Self-Reliance's director Doctor Omen decided to pick him for their Super-Man of China project. Upon being promised the powers of Superman Kenan travelled to their facility where he was imbued with the life force of the dead Kryptonian.

Upon emerging from the power imbuing chamber Kenan began trying out his new powers. When he refused to stand down, Doctor Omen sent in the Bat-Man and the Wonder-Woman of China to deal with Kenan. During the fight, Kenan's powers stopped working and he was taken down by the pair. Upon waking up, Kenan was suspended from leaving the complex. However, during a mission briefing for Bat-Man and Wonder-Woman, Kenan noticed that he had the passcode to the homestead they were heading to. After begrudging being sent on the mission by Doctor Omen to save Wei Li, C.E.O. of the biggest network support company in the Nation from the Freedom Fighter, Sunbeam. Even though Wonder-Woman and Bat-Man told him not to engage Sunbeam, he saw Wei Li in danger so he punched Sunbeam. She then shot Kenan with a solar beam causing him to power up and defeat Sunbeam. Laney Lan then arrived and he revealed to the World that he was Kong Kenan the New Super-Man, and that he, Bat-Man and Wonder-Woman were the Justice League of China.
