Many light-years away on the distant planet of Krypton, Jor-El conducts his research within his home citadel of the recent earthquakes that have been occurring around the planet. And tending to his wife, Lara's pregnancy and the birth of their newborn son, Kal-El. For the past few days they both knew that krypton's has been destabilizing for few years and has already begun to implode in 2 days from now, Jor-El began making preparations to send Kal-El away to another planet to ensure his survival. Lara was hesitant about sending their only child away, Jor-El ensured her that their son will be safe for he has found a habitable and breathable world orbiting a yellow star, which will give their son extraordinary abilities. While Lara stayed with Kal-El and continued the preparations with their assistant droid, Kelex, Jor-El has traveled to the capitol of Kryptonopolis and stood before Lor-Em and the Kryptonian High Council, giving his evidence and warning them that Krypton's core was about to collapse, imploding within 48 hours. The Council couldn't acknowledge that a planetary evacuation wouldn't be possible. Jor-El stated that there's another way and asks them to give him a Crystal of Knowledge.

Suddenly, they were all violently interrupted by General Dru-Zod and his Sword of Rao loyalists as they entered the chamber, disbanding the council. Shocked and appalled, Jor-El asks his friend of what was the meaning of this. Zod believed that the Council was weak and had lead Krypton to ruin, so he declares that he needs to take charge and ask Jor-El to join and help save their race and start anew. Jor-El refused to be apart of Zod's madness, while he resects him as a friend and the man he once knew, but he could never join the monster he has become. Zod commands two of his men to take him into custody while Faora and Thunkian arrested the remaining council members. Zod's coup has resulted a Civil War at throughout the entire city.

Jor-El escaped from the guards and contacted Lara to prepare the launch and will be there shortly. He goes outside only to see Kryptonopolis in the middle of an all-out Civil War, Jor-El makes his way to the archives and takes a Knowledge crystal. Thunkian and two gunships intercepted him, but Jor-El manage to loose them and return to his Citadel. General Zod arrived to the citadel and went inside with Thunkian, while his commanders, Faora, Nam-Ek and Tor-An, and the rest of their loyalists, Jax-Ur, Ursa, Dev-Em II, Az-Rel, and Vax-Nor await his command outside on the platform. Inside, Zod and Thunkian search for Jor-El only to find an interstellar escape pod above the room and looks directly at the sudden appearance of Lara and threateningly questions her of where is she hiding her husband. As Thunkian violently throws objects around the lab, they hear loud wailing cries and Zod went to see what it was, he sees a cradle in the next room and discovered a baby in it, Zod was surprised that his friend had bared a son and realized what was his intensions was for the pod. Jor-El, now wearing Kryptonian combat armor, he manage to quickly incapacitate Thunkian by shooting his internal processor, shutting him down. He then engaged his former friend in a fierce duel with Lara watching on holding Kal-El in her arms. Zod had the upper hand and threaten to execute him and his family for betraying Krypton, starting with his newborn son. In a fit of anger, Jor-El viciously slashed Zod across his eyes and Faora heard his painful cries and rushed in to his aid. Jor-El then orders his former friend to stand down and Faora came pointed her weapon at him. In the least minute, a capitol ship destroys Zod's ship and reinforcements and had the Sword of Rao arrested by the Kryptonian military guild, thus ending the Civil War.

The High Council regain control of Kryptonopolis and put Zod and the Sword of Rao on trial before them with guards and Jor-El and Lara present. Found guilty for high treason and attempted murder, Zod and his compatriots were sentenced to exile within the Phantom Zone on Jor-El's request. Councilmen, Lor-Em asked him if had any last words, Zod expressed his utter disgust and anger with the council's verdict and a addressed Jor-El and Lara, swearing vengeance on their house and warns them that no matter which planet they send their infant son, Kal-El to, he will find him. The ship descended on Kandor and Zod, Faora, a deactivated Thunkian, Nam-Ek, Ursa, Jax-Ur and his cohorts boarded and went through the Phantom Zone Projector for their sentence. As Krypton was about to implode in 4 hours Jor-El and Lara returned home and Kelex informed them that preparations are complete and ready to initiate the launch. They placed Kal-El inside the pod with the Knowledge Crystal next to him and bidding their final goodbyes to their son as they watch the ship launching into space. As earthquakes rock the planet and craters opened up, Jor-El and Lara hold on to each other and share their last kiss in their final moments. Behind Kal-El's ship, Krypton explodes and transforms the planetary debris and crystals into glowing green kryptonite. The pod activates it's warp drive, opens a portal and enters, with several chunks of kryptonite fragments follow into it.

Kal-El's space pod reapears to another solar system and made it's way to the planet Earth. The ship crashed landed in the town of Smallville, Kansas where it was founded by two passing motorists and farming couple, Jonathan and Martha Kent who they discovered the baby inside and decided to raise him as their own son, naming him "Clark." The couple brought the baby back to their farm and toed the spacecraft with them.

Part II
Several years later, Clark Kent, now a teenager attending Smallville High during football. Clark's team won and he was approached by his friends, Pete Ross and Lana Lang who asks Clark if he would like to be his date for senior prom tonight which he gladly accepts. Later that night, Clark attend to his Senior prom dance to be greeted by his classmates and only to find Lana seen arguing with Clark's rival, Kenny Braverman who claimed that he would be Lana's prom date which she rejected that she never asked him at all and finds Clark arrived just in time and the two shared a dance. Just when Kenny was about to interrupt them, a loud crash occurred outside the high school and everyone got out of the gymnasium to see what's going on. Outside there was a traffic accident with a few people injured and a tanker truck has overturned with the driver trapped inside with the door stuck. To make matters worse, the fire began to spread on the leaking fuel. Without thinking, Clark races in to the accident with high speed to free the driver, rips the door off with ease and pulls him out and pushes him away just as he gets caught in the truck's fiery explosion, which he remained unscathed from the flames as ambulances and firetrucks arrive.

Clark returns home to his family farm to talk with his parents about his newfound powers and the incident at school. John talks with him that there was something he and his mother have been wanting to tell him about the truth of his adoption. They followed with him to the barn where they show the spacecraft where they found him as a baby. Shocked and confused at the revelation, Clark calmingly acknowledges and asks that if this is where his parents found him, where'd he come from and why. Martha gives his a long 6 sided crystal which was next him when they found him and began to glow. After his high school graduation, Clark prepares for his journey to the North to learn more of his origins, before he departs, he kindly tells John and Marta they'll always be his parents that he loves so much, says goodbyes and promises them that he'll be back someday to tell them what he's learned.

One month later, Clark has followed the beacon to the artic circle and throws the crystal into the icy sheet where it grows into a huge crystalline structure and enters inside. Clark explores inside, where he inserts the crystal into the panel and a holographic figure appears before him, which took the form of Jor-El. He explains that he is his father and the fortress is a fragment his now-destroyed planet of Krypton and that his real name is Kal-El. He informs him of Krypton's history, General Zod's coup, and the reason Clark was sent to Earth. He then explained to him of his purpose of protecting this world and it's inhabitants. He then introduced him to his assistant drone, Kelex and combat drone Kelor. After many years of education with Kelex to training with Kelex & Kelor within the Fortress, and understanding his purpose from his father Jor-El, a grown Clark emerges garbed in a red cape and a blue formfitting bodysuit with the House of El family symbol on the chest and flies off.

Few months later, it's morning in the city of Metropolis, there's been rumors of an unseen guardian angel helping people in need. Clark Kent becomes a freelance journalist for Metropolis' broadstreet newspaper, the Daily Planet where he is hired and acquainted by its Editor-in-Chief, Perry White. He then introduces Clark to the Planet's best award-winning reporter, Lois Lane as she was about to inform him of the LexCorp story she walked into his office but he told her about the Constitution space shuttle taking it's first test flight at the airport this afternoon. Clark wouldn't mind doing the cover story for the LexCorp unvielment ceremony, Perry approves and assigns Lois to show Clark around for a few days. With time to spare, Lois gave Clark a tour of the Planet as meets the rest of his co-workers on the city desk. He first meets young photographer, Jimmy Olsen, whom told by Lois to give Clark the rest of the tour for she has a "flight to catch". Jimmy talks to Clark more about the Planet as they walk to workspace to meet the rest of the staff when a football flies towards them as Clark catches then a tall man approaches them and Clark gives him back the ball. The man introduced himself as Steve Lombard, Sports Reporter to Clark, shaking hands and complimenting him for the catch and his strong grip. Ron Troupe walks up to Steve and arguably tells him that his foot ball almost knocked over his coffee, spilled all over the story he's publishing but Steve shrugs that it was no big deal and Ron reminds that the story is important to him when he stopped the sudden present of Clark. After Jimmy introduced Ron to Kent, a beautiful attractive woman walks up and asks Jimmy of the tall handsome man standing before her. Jimmy tells her that Clark is new here and she introduced herself as Catherine Grant, gossip columnist of the Daily Planet, but everyone call her "Cat". Clark wished he could get to know more of his co-workers, but he doesn't want to be late on his first cover story and leaves. Clark suddenly bumps into a rushing woman and helps her up. She tells him that she's late and will greet him later.

At the Metropolis airport, Lois is about to board the Constitution when she notices a airfield worker doing something to one the engines and ask a security guard to check him out. The guard ask the engineer what was he doing and he tells him that he's triple checking the engine to make sure it's turbine's okay. As they both leave, a strange device is attached inside the engine beeping a red light with explosives attached. The strange worker walks away from the crowd and hops into a van that's waiting for him and tells his "boss" that the charge is set and he approves his success and tells his men to move in position. Clark arrives in time at the airport on his first assignment: the presentation of LexCorp's latest weapons project: a mobile, agile & powerful multi-purpose, all-terrain state-of-the-art battle suit, the Lexo-Mech 9000: "constructed by a patented impenetrable alloy, and virtually indestructible", one person piloted suit with the same functionality as a human: two legs, two arms, and highly dexterous hands which instantly respond to the driver's hand and leg movements in perfect synchronization. Armed with a thirty millimeter Autocannon/machinegun with a multi-barrel feature that fires armor piercing, explosive or incendiary rounds per minute on the top and a plasma launcher on the bottom. The suit has built-in shoulder missile pods, wrist mounted impact grenade launchers, jet repulsion system and temporary shield generator. The driver's HUD (head-up display) projects radar, active IR (infrared) and passive thermal targeting data on an impact-resistant visor on top of the center console. The ceramony was hosted by billionaire industrialist and CEO of the LexCorp himself, Lex Luthor. Lex declares to thee press that the Lexo-Mech isn't a weapon of war, but as a weapon to end wars, adding a little joke to that part.

Suddenly, the ceremony was interrupted when a group of armed mercenaries attacks and steals the LexCorp Lexo-Mech along with it's advanced weaponry and supplies. As Lex was being escorted to safety by his bodyguard Mercy Graves, a hidden Clark decides that it's the perfect time for his debut and opens his shirt to reveal the his costume and emblem. Now costumed in his suit, Kal-El saved a civilian with his wife and children from being crushed and attempts to pursue the mercenaries. They fired their weapons at him, but were greatly ineffective by his incredible invulnerability and he destroys their weapons with his heat vision. The mercs were getting away with the battle suit in one of their trucks. At first it seems that Kal-El will save the suit, but the group's leader in the van pressed a detonator making the charge in the engine to explode, causing the Constitution to falter and Clark sees the plane as it's falling straight to the city.

Part III
Kal-El leaves the mercenaries and flies into action upward to aid the Constitution. One of the passengers aboard was Lois who witnessed a glimpse of the stranger outside her window. With all his godlike might, Kal-El saves the plane from crashing and gently lands it into a baseball stadium, which is full of spectators. The crowd cheers for the hero's act bravery. When an awe-struck Lois Lane rushes out and asks who the stranger is, he merely replies, "A friend" and flies off. Later that afternoon at the Daily Planet, Perry White demands that his reporting staff, Clark, Lois, Jimmy, Steve, Ron and Cat find out who this stranger is in the capture image. Jimmy comments that is a flying guy in a cape, Steve says he's been hitting the gym while Cat thinks he's handsome. Ron points out that nobody was seriously hurt and that's what matters most. The woman that rushed passed Clark Kent earlier today joins the discussion and introduced herself to him as Jenny Jurwich, Perry White's secretary. Lois asks Perry about the theft of the Lexo-Mech, he sidelined the story that makes discovering the red-and-blue stranger the #1 priority of the Planet and then assigns all his reporters to get whatever information they can get from the mysterious "Caped wonder" to publish it. Cat ask Perry if she could get a copy of the photo of the caped hero so she could add it to her gossip column, Lois rolls her eyes in obvious.

Meanwhile on a shipping freighter in the metropolis harbor, the mercenaries celebrate of successfully stealing the Lexo-Mech rest of LexCorp's tech and the but is was short life when their boss comes in and congratulate his men. However, he ponders of who the flying vigilante was and how'd he prevented an entire space shuttle from crashing into the city. One of the mercs, Finn respectfully reminds him that the Kaznian buyers are expecting the cargo in two weeks. The boss, revealing to be John Corben states that they need to lie low to avoid the authorities at this time, especially "him."

The next day, Clark visits his parent's John and Martha whom were very proud of him for saving all of the people who were on the space plane and convince him to tell the citizen of Metropolis about his yet to-be-named alter ego. Later on, he return to the Fortress of Solitude for training with Kelor and consulted with his father, Jor-El.

At LexCorp Tower, Lex Luthor is also intrigue of Metropolis' new visitor when his assistant Mercy Graves informed him that meteorite touched down near one of their laboratories in Nevada and he tasked his employee and Mercy's brother, Otis to go and investigate the crash site.

Later that night, Lois was at her penthouse apartment writing a new article on her laptop when she had an unexpected-yet surprised visit from Kal-El and then landed on the terrace, greeting Lois by her last name. Lois kindly asks him if he would like to have an exclusive interview while he's here, Kal said yes. They sat down on the furnisher outside the terrace as the Man of Steel informs Lois of his origin, how he gets his powers, that he's here to help those in need and to protect the world for truth, justice and the American way. Lois curiously asks him what was the "S" on his chest stood for. He stated that the insignia isn't an "S" but a symbol of hope and family name, the House of El. Lois quietly dubs him, "Superman". He then invites Lois for a flight to see how fast he can, and so she bravely but nervously holds on as Superman flies her all around Metropolis, and over the river. Superman then takes her back to her apartment and the two bid a reluctant goodnight. Lois then goes back to her Laptop to begin writing her new article about her exclusive interview with Superman.

Part IV
The next several days, Superman flies all over Metropolis in numerous feats of heroism, from helping others in need, assisting the police to stopping muggings & foiling armed robberies. Superman's good deeps has quickly made him a famed celebrity & American icon and made front-page news everywhere from Lois, Jimmy, Perry and Daily Planet staff in Metropolis to John and Martha Kent and a grown up Lana Lang with Pete Ross in Smallville. and the Mercenaries hiding out in the harbor, much to Corben's displeasure that his men are slacking off and distracted while they should be doing securing the last of shipment and Lexo-Mech right now. Corben was just about to rip up the newspaper when he suddenly stops and notices the byline: Lois Lane, whose name was very familiar to him.

At LexCorp, Lex Luthor reading the story of Superman's origins in his office while being interviewed by Clark Kent and Lois Lane about the theft of the Lexo-Mech, which he had no further comment on it. Lex' assistant and secretary, miss Teschmacher walks in his office to quietly inform him that Otis has secured the "package" in Nevada and will be back in the city by tomorrow morning. He then asks Lois and Clark as he has other matters to attend to and asks Mercy to escort them out of LexCorp.

At the Planet's archives with Jimmy, Clark finds a photo with a Kaznian col. next to a mercenary, based on the evidence that the Kaznian's have hired the squad of mercenaries against his regional enemies. Lois decides to investigate herself in secret for she has reliable source to know where the Mech was taken. Clark changed into his costume and would then use this time find the suit as Superman. Later at the at the docks, a man onboard repeatedly told another man, Bibbo that there's no work for him on the ship and tells him to leave before he calls the police for trespassing. Bibbo then meets with Lois whom he tells her that the freighter has been in the port for two week with no cargo on or off and will be leaving the port tonight. Lois then instructs him to call Clark Kent, let him know where she is, and contact Inspector Maggie Sawyer if he doesn't hear from her within 20 mins. Bibbo agrees and walks back to the Ace O'Club tavern but he slowly forgets Lois' instructions after getting a drink and nodding that she'll be fine.

Lois then walks onto the ship where she encounters a man named, Garrett who flirtingly asked of what brings a attractive and beautiful woman out at the docks so late, Lois bravely tells him that she's a reporter looking for someone whos in charge on the ship. Then another man came along, Hans asks Garrett of why is there a trespasser onboard. Lois asks Hans if she would like to speak to his captain but he sternly tells her that they are not giving any interviews and the ship is off limits when his walkie-talkie was beeping. Hans answers that he's in the middle of something, the caller, which was his boss telling Hans it can wait as sees the whole thing via security camera. He recognizes Lois on the monitor and tells Hans and Garrett to her bring to his office for a chat, but Hans tells Corben that the ship will be leaving in 10 minutes. He replies to him to just do it. Hans humbly obeys and understands and tells Lois to follow him, but no sightseeing, just eyes forward, As they walk to the office in the lower deck, Lois come across very shady men, one of them, K.C. asks Hans of who was his pretty lady, he tells him to shut up. Lois then meets John Corben in his observation office he looks on something through the window then turns attention to her, whom claims that they're part of a diplomatic envoy to ensure friendly relations between Kaznia and the U.S. Lois sees the stolen Lexo-Mech through the window behind him and says she's seen enough and should take her leave right now but was captured when Corben, Hans and Garrett pulled out their guns on her that she's not going anywhere.

Later on at the Ace O' Club, Superman comes by and lands to walk in the nearly empty tavern and to ask few any about the Lexo-Mech theft at the airport a week ago. Bibbo, thinking it was some wannabe in a Superman costume, walks up and punches Superman, hurting his hand. Superman kindly asks him if he was alright, Bibbo replies that it stings for a bit but he's ok. When realizing that it is Superman, Bibbo humbly apologizes to him and complements that he's tough and has a strong jaw. Superman thanks him and no hard feelings, and asks Bibbo if he has seen Lois Lane around by any chance. Bibbo suddenly remembers and he regretfully forgot about Lois that she told him to contact Clark Kent at the Planet and the police if he hadn't heard from her for a while. Knowing Lois would be in danger, he ask Bibbo of where was the last place he saw Lois. He tells him that she was investigating the freighter and it's leaving the harbor as the speak but he if he hurries, the ship could still be there before it makes it to open waters. Superman thanks him and flies off the rescue Lois in a flash.

As the ship being escorted out to sea, Lois Lane now tied up and taken hostage and surrounded by the mercenaries. Lois tells Corben that he is making a mistake that every in her office knows where she is. Corben says if anyone knew, they would've made a move by now. He then tells Lois of his past and history with her father, the decorative General, Samuel Lane. After they would sell the LexCorp weaponry to the Kaznians, he then plans to hold her hostage for ransom from her father in exchange for advance weaponry in his armory to sell to the highest bidders. Superman comes in through the ceiling and stand in front with Lois behind him. Finn recognizes him from the airport and the papers. Corben tells Superman that he had some nerve of sticking his alien nose in his business. Frankly, he then didn't care who he is or where'd he came from, he then tells his men to open fire as they all uses their energy guns, but the bounced off Superman. Fulton ran at him and tried to slash him with his combat knife but it was shattered at the point of contact then complained that it was his favorite knife. Superman flicks him away with ease and frees Lois from the ropes with his heat vision and tells her to find cover. While Superman fights off the mercenaries, John Corben pilots the Lexo-Mech to give himself a fighting chance. He shoots Superman down with the Autocannon and turns his sights to Lois. As he was prepared to kill her, Superman recovers, flies and carries Lois to safety. With the freighter now on fire, the mercenaries made their way to the single lifeboat while Corben, in the Lexo-Mech emerges and uses the propulsions jets to escape.

Superman drops off Lois and tells her to call the police and let them know what happening while he tries to stop Corben. As he flies off, Lois tells him to be careful. Corben communicates with Hans to inform the Col. that his battle suit coming by "special delivery" but then Superman lands on top the suit and Corben activates it's electrical shield, then grabs a stunned Superman and throws him into the water followed by a powerful plasma blast. Corben jets off across town but was then tackled by Superman and crashes through a building. As he got back up, Corben, seemingly frustrated, tells Superman that he's starting to get on my nerves and activates the defense shield. Superman fights Corben on as the shield drops at 25%. The police arrive on the scene, warning everyone to clear the area. Lois arrives and then watches on from a great distance and tries to get closer. On the life boat, Finn asks Hans of they should go back to help their Boss hen they were surround by police helicopters with Maggie Sawyer asking them to surrender and have their hands in the air. With shields down at 37%, Corbin fired the suit's missiles at Superman directly but he only brush few away and shot own by the Autocannon. Superman ran for a cement truck. Corben think it was a poor move as he fires at the truck and Superman throws it at Corben as it explodes. While being buried in burning rubble with shields down 50%, he fires a missile at a monorail pillar, causing it to fall, Superman sees and rushes to recue the passengers on the monorail, this distraction buys Corben enough time to get up and grabs a steel girder.

After saving the passengers ,Lois sees Corbin right behind Superman with the gird and shouts at him to watch out but gets blindsided by Corben after being hit with the girder. Stunned and staggered, Corben beats down and stomps on Superman, grabbing him by the face and repeatedly slams him hard against the pavement, knocking him unconscious. Corben now hold Superman by the cape with sick smile and thrashes him on top a police car. Lois continues to look on with a worried and concerned look on her face. He then crushed the car into a ball with Superman in the center Corben then shouts "Let's see if you survive this!!" and throws him into an abandoned building, unloads a barrage of weaponry, missiles and incendiary grenades. Corben laughs in triumph and walks over to search the wreckage. Just when he though that he was victorious, Superman survives with shocking disbelief on Corben's face and then throw him o top of a building. The Auto cannon's ammo was depleted and Corben engaged superman in a villainous breakdown as he tries to beat him to death. With Corben's shields completely down, Superman gets the upper hand tears the Lexo-Mech apart and blows it down to the middle of the street, defeating Corben. Superman flies down and Lois Lane runs to him if he's alright. The two notice an injured John Corben crawling out of the destroyed Mech and was trying to reach for his handgun, Superman steps on it and picks up Corben by his collar and tell that this fight is over. Corben grows furiously at him and surrenders.

Lois calls Perry to stop the presses at the Planet and re-prints the front page, with a story on Superman's victory over John Corben and his mercenaries.

Superman meets and confronts Lex Luthor at LexCorp in his office which Mercy and Eve leave the two in a private conversation. Lex scoffs at his feeble threats and Superman warns him that he'll be keeping an eye on him and flies away. Lex now finds himself the greatest challenge of the century comments "Let the games begin." with a smirk on his smile.

Superman flies through Metropolis with various citizens cheering him on with their heartfelt support, The Daily Planet staff praising him with Cat blowing him a kiss and Lois and Jimmy applauding him, and John and Martha watching proudly of their son on the National news on their TV.

Epilogue
