Jonathan Samuel Kent

Jonathan "Jon" Samuel Kent is the first born son of Clark Kent and Lois Lane Kent. He is a Kryptonian-Human hybrid, much like Kon-El, but is the first hybrid to be born naturally. He is also a member of the Superman Family, as well as another to bare the mantle of Superboy.

Birth
Jon was born to Lois and Clark during the multiversal cataclysm known simply as the "Convergence". His parents were abducted from their world to fight amongst other abductees from all over the multiverse. Despite his father's Flashpoint Paradox counterpart almost jeopardized their very lives, Clark was able to get himself and his wife to safety and encountered Thomas Wayne, the Batman of the Flashpoint Paradox. Wayne himself aided in the birth of their son. When the Brainiac of Future's End found himself changing his mind, Lois and Jon accompanied Superman to the first crisis in hopes of changing the outcome of the multiverse, ensuring it didn't collapse. Once this was successful, the three were stranded on a different Earth, but managed to get by, hiding their actual identity and under going the alias White.

Early Childhood
Jon grew up with a "normal life", but was completely oblivious to the fact that his father was Superman and that his mother was still writing under the "Author X" pseudonym. It was then however that he and his mother were kidnapped by this world's Bruno Mannheim and Intergang, that his superhuman powers began manifesting. After being rescued by his father, Clark and Lois decided to tell Jon the truth about him being Superman and where they were actually from.

After this incident, he began manifesting other superhuman powers, such as heat vision when he accidentally killed the family cat. Later on however, both he and his parents encountered the Eradicator, who purely intended on absorbing the Kryptonian side of Jon. A battle ensued between Superman, Jon and Lois, which ended up on the lunar Batcave. Jon was able to aid his father in the defeat of the Eradicator as a result.

Following this, Clark had begun forming a disguise for his son, with the use of a hat and glasses like himself. He made his presence known as Superboy to both Wonder Woman and Batman at the Justice League Watchtower, when he accompanied his father to the orbital station.

New Superboy
During his first adventure as Superboy, both Jon and his father were in the Fortress of Solitude. They were working on a science project for school when a device in the fortress went crazy and causing them to be transported to Dinosaur Island. Once there, both father and son fought for survival and with the aid of Capt. William Storm, were able to return home safely.

During the Christmas season, Jon was out looking for a Christmas Tree, however accidentally torched some woodlands. Rescued by Nobody and Goliath, Jon was taken to the Batcave for questioning. It was here where Jon met Damian Wayne, the current Robin, who had kept tabs on him for a while. Initially, both boys didn't get along, leading to a conflict, resulting in the arrival of both their fathers. Superman and Batman blamed each other for the resulting conflict, but it was Jon who used his arctic breath to separate both and explain the incident to both of them.

As a means of disciplining their sons, both Batman and Superman put both of them through a series of challenges to get them to work as a team. Initially, both failed the challenges, but would succeed when they realized they needed to work together to complete them. Following this incident, Alfred Pennyworth dubbed both Damian and Jon the Super Sons.

History Rewritten
Later down the road, Jon had his first run in with Mr. Mxyzptlk, a 5th dimensional imp who always was a thorn in his father's side. The imp was known to have taken on an alternate Clark Kent, revealing himself to Superman and attempting to once more, harass the Man of Steel. Jon however was the target and it was due to the fact that Superman failed to save the Imp from Mr. Oz, that Mxyzptlk was angry. The imp began toying with the minds of Jon's parents, making them forget they even had a son, but it was Superman who offered to play a game with Mxy in order for Jon's safe return.

With Mxyzptlk agreeing, he created an obstacle course, known as the "Infinite Planet", which both Clark and Lois beat. Jon was returned, but was red with the infused energy of his parents' Prime Earth counterparts. Unlike his parents, the Prime Earth versions never married, nor had children and Jon managed to convince his parents to merge with their Prime Earth counterparts. As a result of their merge, the family's story had been altered.

With the new timeline, Jon's birth was now within the Fortress of Solitude with both Batman and Wonder Woman present and the Kents were not known under the alias of White.

Super Sons Vs. Kid Amazo
In their first mission within the new timeline, Damian recruited Jon in a mission to investigate a series of recent break-ins at LexCorp. Their investigation however was complicated by the company's owner Lex Luthor. He tried capturing both boys and question them on their business at his place of work, however both boys escaped before he could. They were able to follow a lead on a family who retained superhuman powers from the Amazo Virus and that one of the family members known as Reggie Meyer was driven insane by constant use of his powers. Reggie had undergone the alias of Kid Amazo and he was responsible for the break-ins, stealing a suit of armor to aid him in leading the Justice League into a trap.

With the aid of both Reggie's sister Sara and Lex Luthor, Jon and Damian managed to defeat Reggie, but both boys left before explaining themselves to Lex. Despite this, their family's realized they were gone and both were punished upon their return. Despite this, both boys explained the incident and were given permission to venture off on their own, so long as they had each other's back.

True Power Revealed
Batman and Robin visited the Kents during a big storm, which the family was hiding out from in the basement. Batman had analyzed Jon's DNA and suspected that something in the environment was suppressing the young boy's growth in power. Deducing that whatever was causing this was within the milk from a neighbor's cow, Batman went to investigate, only to be attacked by an unknown substance hiding in the milk.

Following Batman's disappearance, Jon, Damian and Clark went about searching for him, but ended up encountering a massive squid-like monster, which Jon dispatched with his heat vision. As a result, his father spoke to him about the consequences for his actions.

The suppression of Jon's powers was revealed to be caused by Manchester Black, who had plotted his revenge against Superman for sometime. Using several other aliens about the land, including the dairy farmer named Branden and his granddaughter Kathy Branden. He planned to groom the young Superboy into his protege, forcing him to fight his own father while under his control and pushing his powers to their absolute limits. With the aid of Kathy, Jon was able to free himself from the mind control, sending it back to Black in a feedback of psychic power, defeating him in the process. As a result, things returned to normal and it was then that Jon had finally gained the power of flight.

Metropolis
Following his family moving to Metropolis from the countryside, Jon was allowed to patrol the city with Damian, so long as he was home by 10:00 pm. During one patrol, Jon had his first run-in with Damian's group called the Teen Titans, who were investigating strange energy readings within the city. Starfire offered Jon to accompany them, however Damian denied it, as Jon was not a teenager and was only 10 at the time.

The Titans found their lead led to the culprits known as Atom Master and Chun Yull, who managed to defeat the team. This resorted in them turning to Jon for help, who agreed to aid them. Now with Jon on their side, the successfully defeated them and offered Jon an invitation to join the Titans, only for Damian to deny it once again. Both boys continued following up on their investigation of these mysterious villains. This however resulted in both of them being sucked into an inter-dimensional portal, finding themselves on Yggardis, the living planet.

With the aid of other survivors, both boys fought for their lives and managed to return home, debriefing Jon's father about the incident. This resulted in both boys getting their own base of operations, which despite Damian's dismay, Jon dubbed the "Fortress of Attitude".
