Supermanâ„¢

I am the sole survivor of the planet Krypton. My father, Jor-El, discovered that a nuclear chain reaction was building inside Krypton that would soon shatter the entire world. Jor-El therefore had his unborn son Kal-El removed from the Kryptonian Gestation Chambers and affixed the life matrix containing Kal-El to an experimental vessel for travel through hyperspace. Jor-El launched the starcraft toward Earth just before Krypton exploded.
Superman was, in effect, born on Earth when the starcraft landed there. My earth parents Jonathan and Martha Kent found me as an infant inside the vessel and brought me to their farm in Smallville, Kansas. Since I appeared entirely human, the Kents assumed that I was a victim of a cruel experiment. At this time I had no super powers. The Kents named me Clark and raised me as their own son.

As I grew older my Kryptonian body began developing superhuman abilities. When I was eighteen, my dad took me to the field where my starcraft still lay hidden and explained how he and and my mom had found me. I resolved to use my powers from then on only for the good of mankind. After revealing my secret to my childhood friend, Lana Lang, I then left Smallville to study at Metropolis University.
I initially used my powers covertly to help people and prevent or thwart disasters. Ultimately, I was forced to use my powers in public to prevent the crash of a NASA space-plane. Thereafter my foster parents and I devised a new costumed secret identity I would adopt when using my abilities in public. They called my new persona "Superman," the name given by Lois Lane, a reporter for the Metropolis Daily Planet who had been aboard the space-plane.
Shortly afterward, I obtained a job as a reporter for the Daily Planet by turning in my first detailed story about Superman. I wrote that he currently enjoys a freelance status with the Planet.
Superman lives by the traditional moral values instilled in him by his foster parents. Superman is an idealist, devoted to promoting "truth, justice, and the American way," and has proved over and over that he is a true hero, capable of whatever bravery and self-sacrifice is necessary to right a wrong or save a life.
