About

Mild-mannered Clark Kent works as a reporter at the Daily Planet alongside his crush, Lois Lane. Clark must summon his superhero alter-ego when the nefarious Lex Luthor launches a plan to take over the world.
Balancing the clumsy vulnerability of a reporter with the godlike weight of a savior creates a sense of genuine wonder. This definitive origin story captures the pure, soaring optimism of a hero who truly wants to do good.
