- Clark Kent about Jordan Kent

Jordan Kent (born 2007), nicknamed Superboy by Jonathan Kent, is the son of Lois Lane and Superman.

Early life
Jordan Kent was born in 2007 to Clark Kent and Lois Lane.

At some point in a summer, Jordan and his brother went to Smallville and met Sarah Cushing.

Life in Metropolis
In 2020, Lois Lane called Clark Kent to inform him that he was needed in Metropolis to deal with an issue regarding their sons.

Martha Kent's Death
In 2021, Jordan's grandmother died of stroke and the family returned to Smallville. After the funeral, Jordan met Sarah Cushing for the second time. Sarah then talked to Jordan and Jonathan about the life in Smallville as well as mentioning the internet reception in the Kent Farm. Jordan then volunteered to fix the router located in the barn. The trio then went into the barn and Sarah asked Jordan for his phone number for future uses. He then climbed on a ladder to the top of the barn for the router, only to fall on the ground. Jonathan ran across the barn attempting to protect Jordan and was actually protected by Jordan's invulnerability. Sarah shouted for help and Clark arrives to rescue them.

Later that night, Jordan was treated by an EMT and returned to his room with his brother. They then argued over how they are able to survive the accident.

The next day, Jordan and Jonathan searched for something their father was hiding in the barn. They then found a door to an old wine cellar where the Kryptonian pod was stored. As they left to question their parents, they arrived and later revealed Clark, their father, is Superman. In disbelief, Jordan stormed away with his brother following him.

Powers Manifesting and Moving to Smallville
During the night, Jordan went to the Shuster Mines attending a bonfire. As he talks to Sarah about their respective mental issues, he kissed her and was attacked by Sarah's boyfriend. His brother then arrived in defense of him and Sean's group attacked the both of them. Seeing his brother overwhelmed by the group, Jordan's eyes started glowing red and a focused ocular blast shot out of his eyes causing an explosion.

Later, the Smallville Fire Department arrived with Clark quickly arriving afterwards moments after a battle. Clark comforted the both of them and brought the twins back to the house.

Soon, Jordan and Jonathan was approached by Sarah Cushing who arrived to apologize for her boyfriend's impulsive actions. Sarah then offered to have Jordan going with the group and he politely denied.

As Jordan's powers being a dangerous threat, the Kent family decided to move to Smallville.

Training
After Clark discovered Jordan's powers, they decided to skip a day in school and go to the Fortress of Solitude for advice from Jor-El's A.I.. During the test, Jor-El's A.I. found no difference in Jordan and the powers are possibly a one-time occasion. Returning to home, Jordan was furious about his powers and shouted at his family. Jonathan, who also suffered from consequences of Jordan kissing Sarah, shouted against Jordan as well. The twins was then stopped by their mother and was brought to the city council.

The next day, the family went to the Cushing Residence for a barbecue event. Jordan, Jonathan and Sarah talked about how the kiss affected their daily life and Sarah told them that it would be forgotten quickly.

Returning home, Kal-El called the kids to the dining room and gave Jordan an ELT in case of an emergency while mentioning that their mother is going to quit the Daily Planet.
