Born not on Earth but in the Red Lands of the planet Krypton, Absolute Kal-El was nurtured by humble farmers who, despite their potential for great scientific advancements, were ostracized by Krypton’s corrupt ruling Science Council due to their dissenting voices. This world was segregated into two classes: the wealthy and the impoverished, with the latter treated as inferior beings and marked by the S-crest as a symbol of their social standing. His parents learned that Krypton was on the brink of destruction and tried to alert the Science Council, only to find out that they had been aware for some time, choosing instead to hide the truth and prepare escape vessels while abandoning the masses. Kal revealed this deceit to his people, joining forces with his parents in an effort to construct ships to save as many lives as possible. Tragically, he was the sole survivor when Krypton met its devastating end.
