Superman, also known as Kal-El or Clark Kent, is a Fighter from the DC Universe in MultiVersus.

Origin
Created by artist Joe Shuster and writer Jerry Siegel, Superman (real name: Kal-El) is one of three most popular superheroes from the DC universe, alongside Batman and Wonder Woman. While Superman has had various reincarnations and reinterpretations across DC 's history, his most well-known backstory revolves around Kal being sent to Earth as a baby in an escaped pod by his parents after his home planet, Krypton, got destroyed by a natural cataclysm. His pod landed in the American countryside, near the town of Smallville, where he was found and adopted by farmers Jonathan and Martha Kent, who named him Clark Kent. Clark would later develop various superhuman abilities, such as incredible strength and impervious skin. His adoptive parents advised him to use his abilities for the benefit of humanity, and he decided to fight crime. To protect his personal life, he changes into a colorful costume and uses the alias "Superman" when fighting crime. Clark resides in the American city of Metropolis, where he works as a journalist for the Daily Planet.

Official Biography
"Founding member of the Justice League, and one of Earth’s mightiest heroes."

Disaster struck Kal-El’s home world of Krypton when he was just a baby, leaving his parents with no choice but to send him to the stars. His rocket crash-landed on Earth where he was found by Martha and Jonathan Kent and raised as their child. As he grew older, the light of Earth’s yellow sun activated his incredible Kryptonian powers, which he vowed to use to protect humanity and stand up for truth and justice. As one of the founding members of the Justice League he has been an inspiration for countless generations of heroes as he continues to fight evil in all its forms.
