What Happened To Everyone Who Joined The Superman Family?
10. Clark Kent
Nowhere better to start than at the beginning with the guy this surrogate family is named after: Superman.
We all know Superman's origin by now, seeing as how Warner Bros. seems convinced that that's the only Superman story that can ever be told. But the past decade has seen some of the most interesting changes ever brought to the character.
First of all, there was the New 52, which was... tumultuous, to say the least. Especially for Superman. But after the 2016 soft reboot known as Rebirth, things REALLY turned around for the Man of Steel. With the New 52 Superman dead, he was replaced by an alternate Superman who had actually settled down with Lois Lane and had a son named Jon.
In latest news, Superman finds himself infected with an alien parasite that's slowly killing him, which just so happens to line up with the timeline of the recent DC story Future State, which shows Superman as having died in the years between the current DC timeline and the 31st century.
So, while Superman is technically still around, the mantle has been passed on. Which I'll explain more about in a bit...
