HISTORY

By the year 2020, on the parallel world designated Earth-2020, after years of secret training, Kalel Kent took up the title and responsibility as the third Superman. His first recorded adventure involved thwarting the plans of "The Purists," a self-named xenophobic group who threatened to destroy the sky-city of New Metropolis.

Superman III "killed off" his identity as Kalel Kent and later adopted the two identities of Jon Hudson and Lewis Parker. It has not been revealed if there were additional identities.
