Jonathan Kent

Jonathan Kent is the adopted father of Clark Kent and the husband of Martha Kent.

Early Life
Jonathan was born and raised in Smallville, Kansas where his family owned the Kent Farm.

At some point in his youth, Jonathan met and fell in love with a local girl named Martha Clark. Martha liked Jonathan as well.

Leaving Smallville
When he came of age, Jonathan enlisted in the U.S. armed services. After returning, he and Martha spent much more time together and got romantically involved, then getting married.

Finding Kal-El
In 1975, when Kal-El arrived from the doomed planet of Krypton, he landed in Smallville, where Jonathan and his wife found his pod; being a kind-hearted couple with no children of their own, they raised him as their own son, naming him "Clark Kent". The man and his wife taught Clark important lessons and strong moral values, which led him to decide to use the extraordinary powers he gained on Earth from its yellow sun to do good, fighting evil and protecting the innocent as Superman.

Raising Clark
Jonathan raised and loved Clark as if he were his very own son. He bestowed upon him a strong moral fiber and a strong sense of righteousness and humility. Martha noted that Clark was in extremely fit health, and could not recall a time that ever seemed ill, or even under the weather. Clark emerged from accidents without a single blemish on his body. It was then that Jonathan realized that his adoptive child had powers unlike anyone else on Earth.

When Clark was twelve, Jonathan finally confessed to him that he was not their biological son. He took him to the barn and showed him the rocket ship that brought him to Earth. Clark initially was unaccepting, but later that year, Martha and Jonathan were convinced his powers should be used for good. Jonathan motivated his son to become a young hero in Smallville. Clark eventually earned the name "Superboy" by the media. Years after, Clark left the family farm for college in Metropolis and soon adopted the costumed identity of Superman.
