Jonathan Kent Superman Would Be A Tyrant (Infinite Frontier Spoilers)

Jonathan Kent is a Superman out of time and space. He was born to a Clark Kent and Lois Lane from a different Convergence Pre-52 reality, transferred over to DC Superman Rebirth, and then spent years with a time-displaced dead grandfather and returned to find he'd aged but others had not. He kissed his first girl a thousand years in the future, where he had his legacy thrust upon him. And in Future State, had being Superman thrust upon him, setting him at odds with his aunt Supergirl. It's possible that being written this way may have some issues. But it's handy when fighting new Supervillain, the Empyreal Maw, an interdimensional being who fights across space, time and dimensions. Jonathan has seen and lived it all.

Because we've been hearing a lot about DC Infinite Frontier – and especially the #0 issue, which is going to FOC this weekend. You can catch up with a few of them here and debate their veracity as usual all across the internet and call me whatever names you wish.

But for Jonathan Kent, I understand that the Powers That Be have declared that Jonathan Kent must never take on the role of Superman, or he will become a tyrant of Earth.

Not the only time Superman has become a tyrant in one form or other. Injustice: Gods Among Us was a good one, as was Red Son. But little Jonathan Kent? That's a new one. Look at him… isn't he sweet?
