The New Sinister Sons Are a Duo Unlike Any Other

While most fans are aware of Jon Kent ’s condition as Superman ’s son , fewer are mindful that he was n’t the first . The first Super Sonwas Lor - Zod , the child of General Zod , who escaped the Phantom Zone . Clark and Lois ended up adopt him and aid him adjust to his Kryptonian major power on Earth , something they ’d by and by repeat with their biological Word Jon decades later . Chris Kent was a legitimately good child who want to hightail it the shadow of his father , and when Zod cease up invading Earth , it was Chris ' forfeiture that stopped his evil father . It seems , though , that DC ’s latest version of Lor - Zon is utterly glad to be in his Father of the Church ’s footstep .

Chris Kent was a fighter in jolly much every sense of the Holy Writ : not only did he give himself to stop his evil father ’s plans for existence domination , but he later come back and even took on the mantle of Nightwing . Chris was Superman ’s first attempt at take a Logos and Chris did absolutely everything he could to embody the theme of being Superman ’s son . But despite this , this new interlingual rendition of Chris Kent is how he would ’ve turned out if he truly was raised by Zod instead of the Lane - Kents .

Will Superman’s Forgotten Son Take Down His Father?

Superman is no alien to orphic enemies returning from his past tense . Just of late , Superman has had to deal with the return of Jax - Ur , an old Kryptonian villain . So , whileSupermanmight be intimate with villains from his past returning , there ’s no doubt someone who used to be his former son appear as a villain will take the Man of Steel by surprisal . While Chris Kent used to be a hoagie — and cogent evidence that one was n’t defined by his parents — now readers are see to it just what Chris would ’ve become under Zod ’s influence .
