Clark Kent was originally named Kal-El and born on the planet Krypton to scientists Jor-El and Lara, but was raised on Earth by human parents Johnathan and Martha Kent on their farm in Kansas after his Kryptonian parents sent him to Earth for his safety; he has super strength, speed, vision, and other powers including ventriloquism and hypnotism, and the writer would most like to have his super strength to prevent injuries by lifting heavy objects.
