== Introduction ==

Kal-El was born on Krypton to Jor-El and Lara. After Jor-El discovered that the planet was doomed to destruction, he attempted to escape with his family into the Phantom Zone but was repelled by the criminals who had been imprisoned there. With no other choice, he and Lara resigned themselves to their fates, placing their son in a prototype evacuation rocket, activating its Brainiac intelligence, and sending it to a place with a yellow sun: Earth.

The crash site was discovered by Jonathan and Martha Kent, who had just learned that they could not have children. Seeing this alien orphan as their chance, they gathered him up and took him home, leaving a stillborn calf in his place in the hopes of throwing the government off their trail. They raised him as Clark Kent in Smallville, Kansas, teaching him their values. Eventually, Jonathan revealed Clark's true parentage to him, but left it to him to decide what it would mean. On the night of his prom, however, Clark's adopted parents were both killed in a car accident. After their funerals, Clark sold Kent Farm to a neighbour and moved to Metropolis to become a journalist.

== Character Strengths ==

Superman possesses a very versatile moveset, allowing him to both zone and play offensively, though he does not fare super exceptionally at either in comparison to many other extremes in this game. His strength is in his ability to alternate between the two and utilize his flight to pressure the opponent in incredibly unique ways. Playing Superman requires you to be able to play both a zoner and a rushdown character at the same time, to varying degrees, depending on the matchup present.

Strengths:
* Strong zoning.
* Well rounded set of normals.
* Flight is incredibly good, easily the best flight in the game.
* Very high damage.
* Can do some REALLY unreasonably difficult cool looking combos. If you like that, you're at home here.
*
Weaknesses:
* Very bad high/low mixup. Has only one low, and its his sweep, which can not be special cancelled and it does not lead to much damage.
* Very poor reversal options without Omega, Omega Dashing Punch is serviceable but not fully invulnerable.
* His super is pretty mediocre.

Superman's standard zoning fireball now travels faster, starts up a bit slower, but, adversely, has less recovery after its shot! Use this to really make Despero players hate you. And zone.

Similar to Light Comet Punch, but travels MUCH further and is useful for similar reasons. Also does more damage, so it's commonly used at the END of BnB combos, to finish Superman's juggles.

 |description=
This is basically Dashing Punch but on some serious amplification. Comes out as fast as the Light one, travels INCREDIBLY far, VERY quickly, and has 9 frames of invulnerability on startup, making it Superman's best escape option, as well as a great way to fly across the screen and attack.

 |description=
Very good anti air move. Will almost always trade or win against jump-ins that aren't directly on top of Superman, and since air opponents are knocked down, you can use Super Flight to pressure them from there. Can also be used for corner meaties, though fairly risky.

Ice Breath variation that is most commonly used to meaty, as such it's incredibly slow and if you anti air with it, you're a genius. The freeze on this one gives considerably more frame advantage than the light version!

 |description=
Very nasty meaty, starts up slower than the Light version, but faster than the Strong, and is VERY safe on meaty, allowing Superman to pressure with this on knockdowns pretty sparingly. In addition, it has a TON of frame advantage on hit. Very super of you, Superman. Also freezes airborne opponents and leaves them in the air, unique to the Omega version of this move.

This is Superman's primary unique character trait! His ability to fly! He can access moves out of this flight, and also move in all 8 directions! Superman can cancel into his Jumping Light Kick and Jumping Heavy Kick on Frame 6, as well as Comet Punch, a unique move, more info below.

 |description=
Superman dives like the other Comet Punch, except he glows red and moves up a bit before diving down. This move low crushes (can not be hit by any crouching attacks), and unlike the other Comet Punch, hits overhead, which gives Superman a cool mix up if someone forgets that they really don't need to block low a lot. Also has less landing recovery to allow for more combos on hit at multitudes of spaces.

 |cancelable=It's Not
 |description=
Superman does his TRADEMARK Ice Breath, faster than he normally does even, and if this connects, he goes into his Super! Has invulnerability to some extent, does not cover the entirity of the startup, but helps. This Super is primarily used for combo ending, but it can be a serviceable anti air as well if you use it properly.

Superman does his TRADEMARK Ice Breath, faster than he normally does even, and if this connects, he goes into his Super! Has invulnerability to some extent, does not cover the entirity of the startup, but helps. This is the Omega version, it does more damage. That's it. This Super is primarily used for combo ending, but it can be a serviceable anti air as well if you use it properly.
}}
}}

== Combos & BnBs ==
Notation is as follows: Cr = Crouching, St = Standing. Any instance of a light going into a heavy attack is considered a "CPS Chain", which can be performed by pressing both attack strengths together (i.e. St.LP into St.HP is inputted as St.LP > St.LP+St.HP, but will be simplified into St.LP > St.HP)
*
1. Standard resourceless BnB, works midscreen and in corner:
* Cr.LP(x1 or x2, depending on the character's hurtbox) > St.HP/Cr.HP > Light Dashing Punch > St.HP > Strong Dashing Punch
*
2. Anti air conversion/followup
* St.HK > Super Flight
* This combo is not necessarily for damage, but it allows Superman to begin pressuring with his flight from his standard anti air, giving it much more utility.
*
3. Ice Breath meaty conversion
* Ice Breath (Meatied or Omega variation) > BnB #1 (as seen above).
* Works in the corner and midscreen. 
*
4. Omega BnB (Uses 1 Omega, no Super)
* Cr.LP (x1 or x2) > St.HP/Cr.HP > Light Dashing Punch > St.HP > Omega Dashing Punch > Strong Dashing Punch.
* Sizable damage and stun difference from BnB #1, a simple yet effective extension.
*
5. Combo into Super without Omega
* Cr.LP(x1 or x2, depending on the character's hurtbox) > St.HP/Cr.HP > Light Dashing Punch > St.HP > Man of Steel
* Follows the same route and theory as BnB #1, except replaces the last Dashing Punch with a super.
*
6. Command Grab routes
* Command Grab > St.HP > Strong Dashing Punch (works anywhere on screen)
* Command Grab > Omega Super Flight > Omega Comet Punch > St.HP > Strong Dashing Punch (Midscreen)
* Command Grab > St.HP > Omega Super Flight > Omega Comet Punch > Super Flight > Comet Punch (Corner only. Difficult!)
*
7. Max Resources
* j.HK > Cr.LP(x1 or x2) > St.HP/Cr.HP > Light Dashing Punch > St.HP > Omega Dashing Punch > Super
* j.HK > St.HP > Omega Heat Vision > St.HP > Light Dashing Punch > St.HP > Super (1 Omega, 1 Super)
* j.HK > St.HP > Omega Heat Vision > St.HP > Light Dashing Punch > St.HP > Omega Dashing Punch > Super (2 Omegas, 1 Super)
*
