A Modern Take on an Immortal Hero
This version of Superman dives deep into the internal struggle of Clark Kent, who must reconcile being Kryptonian by birth and human by heart. Growing up in Kansas shaped his values—truth, justice, compassion—but the modern world challenges these beliefs like never before.
