Sent as a baby to Earth from the dying planet Krypton, Kal-El was adopted by Martha and Jonathan Kent of Smallville, Kansas.

Gameplay
Superman, much similiar to Big Daddy and Zeus, is a powerhouse, that is, is slow, but can rack AP quickly. However, he racks less AP than the other two powerhouses, but this fact is comprehensible, because Superman is actually kinda fast.
