Superman: Son of Kal-El #3 Favourite Moments
minor spoilers!
1. Jon Stands With The People
The police had started to arrest people at a peaceful protest, claiming that it was an illegal gathering.
What does Jon do when he sees that? He stands with them.
More than that, he refuses to accept special treatment because he's Superman's son.
He knows he has privilege, but he refuses to use it to his advantage so that he may stand with the people, his people.
This shows the world that he can be trusted, that he's on their side, that he's still human, despite his Kryptonian heritage.
2. Dad Bails Him Out.
Despite dear ol' dad helping him out, he still made sure he wasn't only getting out because he's famous. He made sure everyone else who was arrested with him to be released, too.
Jon cares so much about the people. In some ways, he connects more with them than his dad does. He was born and raised on earth, Clark wasn't. This subject was even brought up briefly in the previous issue.
I also like how he's able to casually joke with Clark, "forty-five minutes of hard time" lmao that's cute.
3. Lois Lane Fanboy.
This is cute.
We hardly ever see people pay as much attention to Lois as they do to Superman.
But this scene puts Lois right in the spotlight. Recognising and acknowledging her for her work and her character.
More often than not, people in the DC community still see Lois Lane as just a journalist who is a love interest to Superman.
They forget that she's an incredible woman and character outside of her relationship with Clark. A woman who aims to inspire, who aims to help however she can, who people look up to.
4. Fanboy-ing Intensifies.
He's all over the place, meeting his hero for the first time.
"Clark Kent is good, but Lois Lane..."
Now that's a sentence we don't hear very often, I'm happy that we get to see an actual Lois Lane fan.
He recognises every achievement, every award, every good deed she's done, everything she is outside of her love life. It's refreshing to see after decades of praise towards Superman while Lois always stood behind him like a shadow.
We love to see the girlboss -ery.
5. Super Father-Son Moment.
Clark embraces his son before he has to leave, knowing he might not return.
Clark is believes in his son 100%, he knows that Jon can/will be a better Superman than he is/was.
"People need Superman, and that's you now."
"I'm the Man of Tomorrow, you're for the days after."
Such powerful things to say to your son. Clark keeps emphasising on Jon, a perfect symbolism of him passing on his title as Superman to his son.
He's fully aware that he's not the main character anymore, and he's 100% encouraging his son to be the main character, someone that everyone has their eyes on, someone people will look to for help.
Clark knows this, he isn't sad that he's not in the spotlight alone anymore, he's even ready to step out of the spotlight completely. Letting Jon take the lead and be the Superman.
Really great stuff from Young Justice #17!
