History
Kal-El was just a baby when his biological father, Jor-El, a scientist on his home planet of Krypton, sent him away on a capsule due to the core of planet being unstable and doomed. He would crash land in Smallville, Kansas, discovered by Jonathan and Martha Kent, who both took him in as their child.
The Kent family raised Kal-El as their own, donning name of Clark Kent in the process, assuring Clark that he'd be well-protected on Earth. For years, Clark genuinely believed that he was a real human. He looked and acted like one. It was not until his teenage years that Clark began to develop his Kryptonian and metahuman abilities. Jonathan and Martha were forced to tell him the truth, with Clark viewing a holographic message from his biological parents, Jor-El and Lara, about his old home in the solace of Krypton.
Clark would move out of his parents' home into the storied city of Metropolis, where he would work under Perry White's Daily Planet newspaper. He would fall in love with fellow reporter Lois Lane, who would eventually become his wife and one true love. Clark would also meet the clunky photographer Jimmy Olsen. However, as threats began to unleash on the city, he would become Superman.
