10 Memorable Punch Scenes In Comic Book Movies

3. Zod Thinks He Can Threaten Clark Kent's Mother (Man Of Steel)

Superman Punch Zod When Kal-El is sent to Earth in a spacecraft by his parents, in order to escape the destruction of Krypton, they first infuse his cells with a genetic codex of the entire Kryptonian race - so that the knowledge and legacy of Krypton and its inhabitants will live on forever in him. At the same time, Kyptonian military General Zod murders Jor-El - Kal-El's father - and he and his followers are captured and banished to the Phantom Zone. However, when Krypton later explodes, they are freed. Years later, Zod arrives on Earth, after having received a Kryptonian signal from a ship that had been there for many years, searching for the codex. Believing Kal-El (now called Clark Kent) to have it, he arrives with his followers to the Kent farm and they start intimidating Martha Kent both verbally and physically. At that point, Clark flies in quickly and we see him let loose for the first time. He smashes in to Zod, pushing him through buildings at immense speed. Then, (whilst shouting "you think you can threaten my mother?!") he punches Zod in the face over and over again.
