HistoryEdit

Clark Kent, also known as Superman, was born on the planet Krypton. When his world was on the verge of destruction, his father placed him in a rocket and launched it in the direction of Earth.

The ship eventually landed on Earth and was found by a motorist, who took the infant to an orphanage.

Eventually, he was given the name Clark Kent and over time realized his powers. He eventually moved to Metropolis, was employed by the Daily Planet, and adopted the alternate identity of Superman to fight evil.

Superman became involved in World War II, destroying several ships in Japan while he (as Clark Kent) and Lois Lane were on assignment there. He also help protect allied military documents from falling into the hands of the Nazis.

NotesEdit

He was never referred to on screen as Kal-L or Kal-El in the Fleischer Studios or Famous Studios shorts, nor was his father referred to by name at all. We can assume that the names are Jor-L and Kal-L, but they didn't appear on screen in this continuity. The character history given at the beginning of most of the serials said that a "passing motorist found the infant child and took him to an orphanage. That suggests a much different history than the main stream Superman at the time, the Earth-Two Kal-L.
