Ezekiel Forge (Earth-M8)

Origin
The son of an aerospace engineer and a bio-technologist, Ezekiel was born into excellence. His parents both helped to usher VonKleiseng CyberX Enterprises, Inc into the modern era and bring a shift in the tech landscape. Ezekiel was exposed to an extended amount of information early on, and boy did he use it to his benefit. His entire childhood/teen years were spent working on machines and designing programs for these machines to operate off. Ezekiel graduated from MIT with degrees in mechanical engineering and nanotechnology, as well as bio-engineering. He's an extremely intelligent and gifted being that has a natural affinity for machines. In fact, Ezekiel single handedly revolutionized the Nano field by creating A.S.P.E.C.T (a subatomic particle accelerating cancer treatment). A.S.P.E.C.T was the first fully functional nanite that could descend down to the subatomic level and eradicate cancerous cells, effectively neutralizing their regenerative properties and thus preventing the cells from reproducing. The technology was a breakthrough in a much-needed area, and this breakthrough was proprietary to Mr. Forge, who cashed in on the idea. While Ezekiel was more so about the research and science behind something, he understood that to do what he wanted to, he needed the funds. He had the immediate backing of VonKleiseng CyberX Enterprises, Inc as well as the proceeds from his nanite which was engineered and built by the company.

It was during a test run in the labs at MIT when Ezekiel discovered his abilities, around the age of fourteen. He was designing a program that could redirect brainwaves through Nano implants and could instead send the information to an outside source, like a machine. During this process Ezekiel was wiring the machine that he was going to use and amid connecting the wires, it lit up. It was an android that shouldn't have been fully operational but it was somehow, and he could communicate with it. As the communication continued, Ezekiel realized that he could reconstruct the machine out of nanites and even build other things, as well as alter things, such as his own appearance and biology. It was here that Ezekiel discovered his gift and it was here that A.S.P.E.C.T was truly born, although he purposely handicapped the full capabilities of the nanite which would later revolutionize the world.

W.M.D Descends!
Ezekiel was in his lab, researching a new form of what he called Techtress, a super nanite, by his own accord, capable of endowing others with technological advancements. The original form of this, he had already tested on a few animals, such as lions and gorillas, and it had overtaken their bodies and turned them into mecha animals, but giving Ezekiel complete control over them due to the nanite originating from him. It was a process that was still in the early developmental stages but what Ezekiel was hoping for is that if it worked then he could unlock the biological code, meaning he could truly understand and unravel not just human origins but hopefully the origins of life in of itself. His work was interrupted by breaking news of the new Russian President, a.k.a, his boss, declaring that the U.S. will be held responsible for the deaths of the special forces unit that was deployed in the Northern African country of J'lande. Ezekiel originally didn't care to entertain the news as it had little to nothing to do with him or his work, however, this like all things it seems, would change. The following week, corporate sent out an email alert that all current projects would be put on the backburner and all resources would be put towards the efforts of developing new technology to be used in the coming war. Ezekiel was infuriated by the news and knew that this meant that his work would come to a screeching halt and his current work would be redirected for military purposes and for the funding of a political agenda that he didn't care for. His father reached out to him to see if he could give his department a hand with their design of a new exoskeleton suit. Ezekiel headed there to check the suit out and see what the designs were like. He was somewhat impressed that they were able to come up with this suit with their limited resources in comparison to himself. The next evening Ezekiel went to work and decided to conjure up his own suit, something tailored to him that would allow full mobility while also giving him and very advanced interactive interface. Ultimately, he succeeded and came up with the perfect exoskeleton, something agile and durable as well as something to keep him connected to essentially everything.

However, Ezekiel knew that the suit wasn't exactly great for full on combat. He armed it with a nano cannon, but also made the backup armor. This armor was comprised of everything the suit had but offered far extensive protection and capabilities, being able to conjure force fields as well as generate nanites that could essentially do whatever he wanted them too. The armor was designed to withstand full-fledged combat, multiple nuclear explosions, hell he calculated the type of force that it would take to destroy the planet and designed the armor to withstand even that. Essentially this armor was the end all be all, and it was very impressive. November 14th arrived and the news of the confrontation in Lebanon broke and with the Russian and American forces coming to a head, Ezekiel knew this was the time to act. He suited up in the standard exoskeleton suit and located the coordinates of the confrontation and teleported there via nanites. He arrived in the middle of four beings already there, they all greeted him and introduced themselves as Judgment, Vortex, Magnus, and Velocity respectively. He would respond and tell them who he was, the end of days, a walking arsenal, a weapon of mass destruction, thus he was forever known as W.M.D.

The Gathering of Five
W.M.D was the last to join the other four, Velocity, Magnus, Vortex and Judgment, who had been the only thing standing between these two armies and the end of the world. Now it was these five men who would be the only thing standing between the earth and doomsday, in the most literal sense possibly. W.M.D watched as Judgment tried this whole stop sign hand thing and chuckled a bit before forming five ear pieces and throwing them to each of the guys. He let them know that they can communicate telepathically with these, just hook them on their ear and they can talk to one another mentally. They all looked a bit skeptical of the device, but no one had time, well maybe except Velocity and Vortex, to really take it in because the two forces opened fire on them right in that moment. Velocity took off and started catching bullets and taking guns away like he was the anti-Santa Claus. Meanwhile, Magnus started taking off and shoot tank ammo out the sky like he was cancelling the Fourth of July. W.M.D joined in a took out some American forces sabots, and as they disintegrated, his nanites rose from the ashes and created mecha harpies. He smirked as the harpies ravaged the tanks, dismantling them and tearing them apart. He joined in on the fun as he shot tanks apart and sent troops scurrying. Velocity quickly joined him and the two started taking on troops head on, punching their way in and out of combat. He was thoroughly enjoying the fray and watching his comrades kick ass was fun too, especially Vortex sending missiles and jets to different dimensions. The ear pieces he gave them also scanned their brain activity as well as their abilities and recorded them for him. He wanted to get a sense of what his partners in heroics were truly capable of.

Velocity was impressively taking names at a steady rate and putting down enemy forces alongside W.M.D and his mechas. However, there was a shift in the battle when a mysterious male showed up and let a ghoul that emitted a sonic scream, pushing Velocity back and putting W.M.D on the defense. His harpies headed into his direction, yet he let out another screaming ghoul which sent the harpies flying back. The random being charged at him, fist glowing green and as he leapt into the air preparing to let out a powerful blast, but he disappeared, his body turning into nanites and dissolving into the ground. W.M.D reemerged from behind the random being and grabbed his head and shoved it straight into the dirt, before picking him up by his legs and proceeding to kick his midsection which sent him flying towards Velocity. Velocity had then grabbed him as lightning charged from the sky and he ran towards Vortex and placed the man right above his force-field as Vortex looked up to see what he was doing and then shrugged as Velocity ran past him, the bolt fell and seemingly collided with the force-field but had hit the man who was pushed into the force-field and sent into another dimension, assuming he survived. W.M.D looked to where the bolt came from and formed a super-cannon and fired a beam towards that part of the sky, although it didn't connect as a being fell to the ground, who had seemed to absorb the blast. The battle had changed and now it went from relatively easy to be presenting perhaps a real challenge in these new arrivals.

Emergence of the Collective: W.M.D vs Destroyer
The lightning bolt had distracted every force on the battlefield, making way for a surprise assault from new threats. W.M.D watched as his comrades engaged in the fights of their lives, yet he could only take this in briefly as he had his own threat to deal with. A machine with blades emerging from both hands stood before him, and before he had time to truly react, it rushed him. W.M.D pushed himself back but the machine was stabbing at him left and right. He flipped over the machine and formed nanite mechas in the form of two lions and a tiger but the machine casually ripped them apart and destroyed the nanites in the process. W.M.D knew he had to step it up as this was no ordinary machine. He brought his cannon back and fired at the being, but it tanked the cannon blasts as if they were literally nothing. The robot opened its palm and fired out energy blasts in rapid-fire fashion. W.M.D avoided those that he could, but was tagged by one which ripped his left arm off. He looked at it and yelled loudly, as a new arm grew in its place from his nanites. He decided that he was done playing around and his form changed, he appeared as a larger entity, white in appearance and far more robotic as well as durable. He charged the being and exchanged blows with it, sending it flying through a mountain. W.M.D formed two large cannons mounted on his shoulders and he started firing off at the robotic entity. The being took some hits but jumped in the air and flew at W.M.D, flying them all the way across the world and landing on a barren island. The robot then charged at W.M.D again, this time it held a miniature device in its hand which it attached to his back before flying into the air. The device detonated before W.M.D could remove it, and the detonation completely destroyed the island and ending up forming a large hole in the middle of the ocean.

W.M.D emerged from the hole unscathed as he launched himself into the robot and propelled them through the sky and into space, before throwing the being into a satellite. W.M.D then used his nanites to form a large, super cannon, which fired a laser directly at the robot and sent him flying through a large asteroid. W.M.D scanners detected that the being wasn't dead, so he flew towards it and right into it, sending them into another large asteroid. The two fought inside the asteroid, before the entity destroyed it, much like he did the island earlier, thus earning it the name "Destroyer" from W.M.D. The fight continued, with no one backing down, and Destroyer formed its own minibots which came barreling towards W.M.D and acted as suicide bombers. Destroyer soon flew towards Venus with W.M.D following quickly behind him. The two engaged in yet another large battle while in the atmosphere of Venus, W.M.D released some more blast from his cannons that sent the Destroyer falling into the planet and W.M.D joined, flying into Venus. Destroyer stood up and unleashed those hand claws again, attacking W.M.D and lodging them in his back before ripping them out and using them to dismember him, removing both legs and then his head. Destroyer thought his opponent dead and proceeded to fly off, yet W.M.D body literally reformed from the nanites and he followed Destroyer, cloaking himself in the process. He hid behind the being that was hovering slightly above the atmosphere of Venus, then like a snake, he struck and stuck a bomb on destroyer which cause a huge explosion in the atmosphere and sent Destroyer falling back towards the planet. W.M.D flew higher he was outside the atmosphere and off the planet. Two additional cannons joined the first two that were on his shoulders, which had reformed with his body. The four cannons formed four separate beams which all connected into one giant beam and was sent straight into Venus, right where Destroyer should have fallen.

The blasts tore the planet apart, and Venus literally imploded on itself, or so it seemed. Destroyer had survived the planetary destruction and he even absorbed the energy from the destruction. W.M.D was scanning the space where Venus was at to check for life, and was surprised to see Destroyer flying out of the destruction and heading straight for him. W.M.D flew the opposite direction, towards the sun, and Destroyer caught up and pushed him into the sun. W.M.D engaged in a stellar fight with the entity and sent it flying into the core of the sun, yet Destroyer came back and drug W.M.D in there with it. They fought literally inside the core of the giant star, with the fight only stopping when destroyer unleashed the energy from Venus' destruction. The energy pushed W.M.D back, but did no major damage to the star itself. W.M.D. then noticed how Destroyer was seemingly absorbing the actual sun and growing. He knew this would be catastrophic for the solar system so he rammed into the being and formed eight nano-tentacles which tried to absorb the energy from Destroyer. However, the robotic being countered the attack and soon the two techno goliaths were fighting to see who could out absorb the other. W.M.D pushed back harder, and while Destroyer was distracted, W.M.D pushed the robot into himself and put his hand through the core of the techno entity and ripped it out before consuming it inside of himself. The being let out a large screech and its eyes flashed blue before losing all color and just floating inside the sun. W.M.D flew outside the star with the body of his adversary. W.M.D had absorbed the essence of Destroyer and thus retained its knowledge as well as the inner workings of its programming; and boy did Destroyer carry a good amount of information. W.M.D headed back for earth to rejoin his allies and see what progress could be made from the events that just took place.

The Collective: The Aftermath
W.M.D returned to earth, rejoining his allies who had all returned from their own successful fights. They would discuss the events that just transpired amongst themselves before Judgment offered to take them back to his private research facility. W.M.D was very interested in hearing about this, as it confirmed that Judgment was an intellectual like himself, thus he respected Judgment more for this. Vortex opened a portal, and soon they were transported to the facility. It was very large and had a great ocean view from all sides, as it seemingly existed on a private island. They walked into the facility and news stations from around the world were on, all of them recounting the events that had just taken place and assessing the aftermath of those events. W.M.D watched as a few of the others got worked up when politicians and reporters and even social media was going abuzz about how the five of them were a serious and dangerous threat to life itself and that they needed to turn themselves in. He chuckled to himself at the thought, but he saw that Vortex, Magnus, and Velocity clearly didn't take too kind to any of this. He knew that their humanity meant something more to each of them, so this affected them a bit more than it did him. He also noted how calm Judgment seemed despite this breaking news, he was the only one there that he couldn't read which is something he admired and hated at the same time. The reporters would go on about how the moon had been destroyed alongside three other planets, which caused Velocity to somewhat lose his shit over. He was surprised that everyone besides himself just took it upon themselves to destroy celestial bodies left and right without regards to public perception of the events. Vortex commented that he had no part in any of that, however W.M.D checked him and let him know that his scanners caught his actions across dimensions and he was aware that he ended a world himself.

Judgment then asked them all how did their adversaries even come together. It seemed so well thought out and meticulous, yet Stormbringer, the so-called leader of this group, was supposedly just a simple arms dealer. Judgment then asked for each of them to give details of their encounters, to see if there was anything hidden there. Vortex started by explaining his battle with a dragon known as Cosmic, and how the battle expanded across multiple dimensions before he was able to finally banish him to a foreign dimension. Magnus then told of his fight with this Theron character and how they fought across the solar system, with Magnus destroying both the moon and mars in the process. Velocity, perhaps had the biggest shocker of all, as he told of his fight with Stormbringer, who turned out to be Zeus himself and how he was able to actually take him down for a moment while also learning that the god is in search of a god-killer on earth. W.M.D was the last to go, stating that he also had footage to provide for his encounter, that he actually had footage of all the encounters. So, he hooked it up to Judgment's interface and they watched his fight with the techno that he calls Destroyer. They also went over Judgment's fight with Abyss as well and everyone else's so they could see their enemies up close and see what they were dealing with. Judgment asked about what Theron meant by Magnus was the Apocalypse, and who the hell was this god killer that Zeus was willing to destroy the planet over?

The Overseers Emerge
Superman and Jor-ElAfter battling a group of mentally enhanced psychics known as the Twenty in a sort of "Psi-War" [25], Superman learned that H'El had survived and had managed to bring Krypton back to life. However, H'El also altered the timeline and they had to stop him from destroying the universe. With the help of Faora, Superman traveled to Kryptonopolis a few months before Krypton's destruction, where he meets his mother Lara.[26] [27] Superman witnessed Lara telling Jor-El that she was pregnant, but then, Superman was confronted by a mysterious person who was aware about his travel in time.[28]

This stranger was in fact Jor-El, who came from one of the alternate futures created by H'El. Realizing he was the one who created H'El, Jor-El came to the past to stop H'El from conquering Krypton. Superman and Jor-El travelled to Krypton's core and fought H'El. At first, Jor-El wanted to kill H'El but Superman instead used H'El's own chronal powers against him and froze him with his super-breath, locking H'El in a state of eternal limbo. Superman and Supergirl were reunited in the present, but they learned that Superboy sacrificed his life to stop H'El. Mourning the loss of their friend, Superman and Supergirl returned to Earth.[29]

Trinity War and Forever Evil
In the hopes of ridding the world of evil, Pandora tried to have members of the Justice League open her box for her, believing that their virtuousness would prevent the calamity that occurred when she opened it.[30] However, this backfired, and the active Justice Leagues took sides, fighting over the "correct" method to open the box.[31]

While trying to understand the escalating tension of opening the box, Superman and Wonder Woman were ambushed by Dr. Light and, during their fight, Superman accidentally killed Light with his heat vision.[32] Superman asked to be locked away for his outburst but started getting sick in captivity.[33] Upon investigating further, Firestorm, the Atom, and Element Woman discovered that there was Kryptonite in Superman's nervous system, which caused him to attack Dr. Light unintentionally.[34] However, before they could save him, the Crime Syndicate came to Earth from their world and trapped the Justice League inside the Firestorm Matrix.

After being freed by Lex Luthor and his group of rebellious criminals, Superman was eventually saved by Luthor, who was volunteered to remove the Kryptonite from his brain.[35]

Doomed
SuperDoomAfter discovering Doomsday wrecking havoc and harboring a dangerous toxin within his body, Superman ripped the beast in half and used his super-breath to inhale the toxin to stop it from spreading.[36] After recovering, Superman realized that he was slowly turning into a Doomsday-like creature.[37] Superman's girlfriend, Wonder Woman tried to help him, but the transformation was becoming stronger[38] and Superman had no choice but to turn himself to the authorities.[39] Superman was locked in a special facility but he soon was needed by the Teen Titans to defeat an enemy, which he eliminated ruthlessly.[40]

The military declared Superman an enemy of the state and they sent Metallo and Atomic Skull to eliminate him. Steel tried to help Superman fight the enemies, but, after a suicide attack with kryptonite by Metallo, Superman became weak and his transformation into "SuperDoom" was accelerated.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-40">[41] Wonder Woman then took Clark to outer space where he could escape into its depths until they found a way to save him.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-41">[42]

While in space, SuperDoom tried to help an alien colony but lost control and attacked their leader.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-42">[43] He was then warned about an incoming invasion of Earth by Braniac's forces and he confronted its commander, a cyborg with Superman's appearance.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-43">[44] After a brief fight between them, SuperDoom returned to Earth and joined the Justice League to fight Braniac's forces and after their victory, the Justice League remove the kryptonite from Earth's atmosphere, making Superman temporarily change back to normal.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-44">[45] <sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-45">[46]

When Brainiac's forces returned with reinforcements, Superman attempted to turn back into SuperDoom to fight them. Unfortunately, Superman lost control of his body completely to the virus.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-46">[47] Once defeating Brainiac, Lois Lane helped Superman steal Braniac's powers and finally cure Superman of the Doomsday virus. Once free, the hero captured Braniac and took him inside a black hole,<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-47">[48] returning back to Earth sixty days later.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-48">[49] Once back, he was reunited with Wonder Woman, and the two resumed their relationship.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-49">[50]

Men of Tomorrow
Superman and UlyssesDuring an alien attack on Metropolis, Superman was assisted by a stranger called Ulysses and together they defeated Klerik, one of the alien soldiers. Superman then learned that Ulysses believed himself to be the last survivor of Earth.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-50">[51] With Superman's help, Ulysses found the truth about his past,<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-51">[52] but they were soon confronted by "The Machinist", a man responsible for creating destructive robots.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-52">[53] The criminal managed to escape and shortly afterwards, Ulysses revealed his plan of taking millions of people to his home planet, "The Great World" in order to save mankind from what he believed was Earth's doom.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-53">[54] This lead to a confrontation between Superman and Ulysses, with the latter winning and taking Superman prisoner.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-54">[55]

On their way to Ulysses' home planet, there was another confrontation between Superman and Ulysses<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-55">[56] and the fight was brought to Metropolis, where Superman unleashed a new power he didn't know he had: a super flare of solar energy, beating Ulysses for good. Unfortunately, the solar flare drained his powers for a day, leaving him as a normal human until they slowly began to come back.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-56">[57]

Final Days of Superman
After his last fight with Vandal Savage in his depowered state, the events of the Darkseid War, and his fight with the Kryptonian god Rao, Superman learned that he was dying and asked for Batman's help to find him a successor.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-57">[58] As part of his legacy, Superman told the whole truth to Lois Lane and asked her to publish everything in the Daily Planet in order to have his history and identity revealed to the world before his death.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-58">[59] Superman told the truth to Diana, and they shared a moment before they were needed back in Metropolis, where the "Energy Superman" they had caught days earlier had escaped Stryker Island and was destroying everything.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-59">[60]

Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman together tried to stop the Energy Superman and, while doing so, were assisted by the mysterious "Black Superman", who chose to remain unidentified for the time being. Superman took the Energy Superman to space, where he used his solar flare power to finish the threat and the Energy Superman evaporated in the cosmos. Superman's body fell down to Earth and as he was surrounded by his friends, he asked the "Black Superman" to take his mantle and become the New Superman of Earth. After this, Superman's body died and turned to ashes.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-60">[61]

Superman Reborn
In order to escape Mister Oz, Mr. Mxyzptlk brainwashsed himself into thinking he was Clark Kent.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-61">[62] He harrassed the New Earth Superman and when he was found out, kidnapped Jon Kent and made his parents forget about him. Trapping all of them inside the Fifth Dimension, Mxyzptlk revealed that both the New Earth and Prime Earth Supermen were actually two halves of the true, complete Superman, who was split into two separate people during the Flashpoint incident. The same was true for Lois.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-62">[63] Out of love for Jon, Clark and Lois merged with the essences of the other two and each became single, complete Prime Earth version; fixing their conflicting histories and bringing the world back to normal.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-63">[64]

Afterwards, Clark felt the need to investigate the changes to his past<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-64">[65] and reach his cousin out to warn her about his unknown enemy, Mister Oz, and ask her help to fight him.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-65">[66]

Revenge

 * Main article: Superman: Revenge

As Clark and Lois get ready to move back to Metropolis, Hank Henshaw puts together a new Superman Revenge Squad.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-66">[67] Stealing a mystical item from Superman's Himalayan backup Fortress, Henshaw turns himself back into Cyborg Superman and allies himself with Metallo, Blanque, Eradicator, Mongul and Zod. Superman tries to stop them, but exposure to the energies of Belle Reve's Black Vault has rendered him blind.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-67">[68]

Superman is forced to retreat, taking Lois, Jon and Krypto to the Fortress of Solitude. The group of villains assaults his Fortress before he can come up with a plan, but the Superman Family -Kara Danvers, Lana Lang, John Irons, Kong Kenan- and Lex Luthor turn up, ready to help him.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-68">[69] During the ensuing brawl, Zod manages send most of Superman's allies to the Phantom Zone and freeing his wife Ursa and their son Lor-Zod.

However Cyborg Superman got stuck into the Zone, and Superman decides against getting him out of there.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-69">[70]

Powers
This umbrella ability includes the following: This also confers:
 * Kryptonian Physiology: Under the effects of a "yellow" sun, Superman possesses the same potential powers as an average Kryptonian. These include:
 * Solar Energy Absorption: Under optimal conditions, this is the main source of Superman's super powers as they are contingent upon exposure to solar radiation from a yellow sun star system. His biological make up includes a number of organs which lack analogues in humans and whose functions are unknown. It is believed that between one or more of these and his bio-cellular matrix, "yellow" solar energy is stored for later use. This allows for the use of these powers to fade when yellow solar radiation is not available instead of immediate failure.
 * Heat Vision: Superman can, as a conscious act, fire beams of intense heat at a target by looking at it. He can vary the heat and area affected.
 * Super-Hearing: Superman's hearing is sensitive enough to hear any sound at any volume or pitch. With skill and concentration, he can block out ambient sounds to focus on a specific source or frequency.
 * Enhanced Vision Superman's vision processes the entire electromagnetic spectrum as well as allowing vast control over selective perception and focus.
 * Electromagnetic Spectrum Vision: Superman can see well into most of the electromagnetic spectrum. He can see and identify radio and television signals as well as all other broadcast or transmitted frequencies. Using this ability, he can avoid detection by radar or satellite monitoring methods. This also allows him to see the aura generated by living thing.
 * Telescopic Vision: This is the ability to see something at a great distance, without violating the laws of physics. Though limited, the exact extent of the ability is undetermined. In function, it is similar to the zoom lens on a camera.
 * X-Ray Vision: This is the ability to see through any volume of matter except lead. Superman's can see things behind a solid, opaque object as if it were not there. He can focus this ability to "peel back" layers of an object, allowing hidden image or inner workings to be observed. The exact type of energy perceived - such as x-rays, cosmic rays, or some other energy invisible to normal humans - is unclear. This ability perceives an ambient energy source though, it does not involve the eye projecting a concentrated, possibly toxic, beam to be reflected back from objects.
 * Microscopic Vision: This is the ability to see extremely small objects and images down to the atomic level.
 * Infrared Vision: Superman's can see with better acuity in darkness, and to a degree in total darkness.
 * Flight: Superman is able to manipulate graviton particles to defy the forces of gravity and achieve flight. This ranges from hovering to moving in any posture, in any direction.
 * Invulnerability: Due to the interaction of his dense molecular structure and supercharged bio-electric aura, Superman is nigh-invulnerable to extreme energy forces. In addition, his extends this protection against toxins and diseases.
 * Superhuman Stamina: Superman is able to maintain continuous strenuous physical action for an indefinite period of time. This based on his body converting yellow solar radiation directly to energy, but is limited by physiological and psychological needs to eat, drink, and sleep.
 * Superhuman Strength: Superman's strength is augmented by yellow solar radiation interacting with the greater than human density, resilience and biological efficiency of his musculature. His strength is more an act of conscious will on energy fields than actual physical strength. It is this act of conscious will that enables him to perform physical feats that are beyond the mere application force, such as moving a mountain top without said rock crumbling under its own mass.
 * Superhuman Speed: Superman is able to move at incredible speed by sheer force of will. This extends to his perceptions and allows for feats such as catching bullets in mid flight as well as covering vast distances in little or no time.
 * Superhuman Agility
 * Superhuman Reflexes
 * Super-Breath: Superman is able to create hurricane force winds by exhaling air from his lungs. He can chill the air as it leaves his lungs to freeze targets. He can also reverse the process to pull large volumes of air or vapor into his lungs.

Abilities

 * Intimidation
 * Journalism

Weaknesses

 * Kryptonian Physiology: Under the effects of a "yellow" sun, Superman possesses the same potential weaknesses as an average Kryptonian. These include:
 * Vulnerability to Kryptonite
 * Vulnerability to Magic
