A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away... LONG TIME AGO IN A GALAXY FAR, FAR AWAY... SUPERMAN: A NEW HOPE The core of the planet Krypton was heating to a point that would soon cause the planet to explode. In hopes of saving their infant son and preserving the Kryptonian race, Jor-el and Lara-el loaded their young son into a ship and sent him soaring toward the planet Tatooine. Having arrived on the planet, Kal-el soon realized that Tatooine's twin suns gave him superhuman powers. Guided by the Jedi master, Obi-Wan Kenobi, the young Kryptonian was guided to a small farm where he was raised by his adoptive parents, Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru. Having been raised as Clark Skywalker, a series of events now leads the young man on an adventure that will take him to the far reaches of the galaxy. There he will learn the ways of the force, come face to face with ultimate evil and attempt to take down the Empire's newest and most destructive force, The Death Star.
