Background

Superman, also known as Kal-L, is the Earth-Two version of Superman. His life is nearly identical, with several differences in his history and personality. Baby Kal-El was born to Jor-El and Lara on the planet Krypton. Shortly after his birth, his father placed him in a space-ship model he had constructed, as he had run out of time to build a full-size ship to carry the whole family off the planet. The ship was launched, and traveled through interstellar space towards Earth.

His rocket landed in rural Smallville. There, he was found by Martha and Jonathan Kent, who soon took him to the orphanage. In the orphanage, the baby performed amazing feats of strength, frightening the staff. When the Kents returned the next day to adopt him, the staff were only too happy to be rid of the uncontrollable baby. The kents named him Clark, after Martha's family, the Clarks.

The Kents soon discovered the amazing powers their adoptive son had. He was seemingly invulnerable, faster than a locomotive, and able to leap amazing distances.

As Clark approached adulthood, Martha grew ill and died, and Jonathan soon after. On his death bed, Jonathan made Clark swear to use his powers for good. Clark soon adopted the identity of Superman, to make good on his promise to his father.
