Our hero is Superman. Also called "The Man of Steel", "The Man of Tomorrow", and "The Last Son of Krypton".
He is the one who saves the world day in, day out. He defends the people against the evil monsters. He is very strong, he can fly, he is super fast, he has got a freezing breath, super hearing, superman strength, regeneration etc. But there is one thing he can not bear and that is kryptonite, a substance coming from Krypton, Superman’s birth place. His enemy, Lex Luther knows this and uses it against Superman.
Superman was born on Krypton. Just before his planet Krypton exploded his father sent him to Earth. Superman was found by Jonathan and Martha Kent, who lived in a little town not far away from Smallville. Jonathan and Martha called their new son: Clark Kent.
Superman grew up on Earth with the name Clark. With his superpowers he fights crime, but when he doesn’t do that he works as a journalist for the Daily Planet. Superman always fights crime. You almost can say he never rests. When anybody has got a problem Superman will be there for them, he always must go to a quiet place to change from his undercover-clothes, to Superman.
Why is Superman a hero? Superman is a real hero because he saves a lot of people with his special powers. He is the strongest man in the world. He also has to fight with criminals who are after his powers. That’s why he is a big hero for a lot of people. Superman is a hero and not a celebrity. He saves people because that is good and not because he wants to be a famous man. This man is very important to us, because we like his films and comics.
