"They only lack the light to show the way. For this reason, above all, I have sent them you... my only son."
Krypton is gone. But its last son lives on.
Raised as Y/N Kent in the quiet fields of Smallville, Kal-El now walks among the people of Earth. Uncertain, overwhelmed, and still discovering what it truly means to be Superman. The world knows his name, but not his heart. Not yet.
In the shimmering chaos of Metropolis, Y/N juggles two lives: an underdog reporter at the Daily Planet and a reluctant symbol of hope in a world that doesn't fully trust him. His powers make him unstoppable, but his inexperience makes him vulnerable. One wrong move, and the world could turn against him.
Across the city, Lex Luthor, once a brilliant friend, now a bitter visionary, has returned, determined to remind the world that no alien savior is ever without a hidden agenda. Their history is tangled, personal, and unresolved... and Lex knows exactly how to use it against him.
When a mysterious, otherworldly presence arrives and a forgotten Kryptonian guardian, Krypto resurfaces from deep isolation, Y/N is forced to confront not only his heritage, but his role in the destiny of an entire planet.
At his side stands Lois Lane, a bold and relentless journalist who sees through the cape and into the soul beneath. Together, they must navigate truth, trust, and the fine line between power and purpose.
This isn't the story of how Superman became Superman. This is the story of how he learned what kind of man he truly wants to be.

Into dust
Iris Luthor never wanted to return to Smallville - the town that buried her father, the town that ruined everything she never had. After years of boarding school disasters, headlines, and whispered scandals in Metropolis, Iris is sent back to the one place she swore she'd never return. Her mother's last-ditch effort to get her back on track comes with strings: finish high school under the eye of her cousin, Lex Luthor, and keep a low profile. But Iris has never been good at quiet. Beneath the sarcasm and rebelliousness , Iris carries a secret no one knows, not even Lex. Ever since the meteor shower, strange things have followed her. Fires that spark from nothing. Rain that falls when she cries. Glass shattering without a touch. She's managed to keep it buried, blamed it on perfect coincidences. But Smallville has a way of revealing the truth. Especially when she crosses paths with Clark Kent, the golden boy of Smallville High. The two couldn't be more different. Clark is infuriatingly noble, frustratingly good, and sees right through Iris's walls. Iris is chaos, always pushing boundaries, and quick to challenge Clark's black-and-white sense of right and wrong. They clash instantly, she was a wildfire; he was the calm before the storm. But the more time they spend together, the more Iris sees that Clark is hiding something too. Something deep. Something impossible. And in a town full of secrets, maybe the only way to survive is to stop pretending they're normal at all. I do not own anything from Smallville except plotlines and characters i created
This Is My Super-Life (Superman Reader)
(Catwoman x Superman Reader, Red Lantern OC x Supergirl.) Yet another superhero in a world that needs him the most! Superman is known by all for being the most vanilla superhero in the world, but... regardless of the instance, the Man of Steel still has a story to tell. In this case, you were sent from Krypton to Earth to avoid its collapse. After honing your strength under the Earth's yellow sun, you fought your adversaries for the sake of keeping this new home safe, to show your thanks. General Zod, a man responsible for the downfall of his home planet, was one of soon many who were made an example, showing everyone on Earth that this hero was here to stay. However, Superman would soon be called upon again to save the Earth from yet even more extraterrestrial threats. When a close friend (OC) of his accepts an invitation into the Red Lantern Corps from Gotham, chaos ensues, and his super-life will forever change. DISCLAIMER: This content is mature; you can expect the worst. There may potentially be violence, topics of cheating, and sexual content. This is written like a real book, (There might be some dumb stuff later in the book). Also, since this is my first DC story I've ever written. I am going to tell you right now that I am going to get stuff wrong and pull "canon" stuff out of my back pocket like a complete clown. You have been warned.
Superboy K-pop Manager
Being the son of Superman isn't as glamorous as it sounds especially when you're trying to live a normal life. Eighteen year old Benjamin Kent, better known to the world as Superboy, has spent most of his life in his father's shadow, saving lives by day and finishing homework by night. But when he decides to attend college in Seoul, South Korea, Ben sees it as a chance to start fresh new city, new culture, and maybe even a shot at being something more than just the "Boy of Steel." What he didn't expect? Becoming the assistant manager of one of the biggest K-pop girl groups in the world: TWICE. Between dealing with chaotic dorm life, fangirls, tight schedules, language barriers, and nine very different personalities, Ben quickly realizes that this job might be tougher than stopping a runaway train. But as he bonds with the girls and navigates the highs and lows of fame from the sidelines, he discovers that strength isn't always about muscle it's about connection, growth, and learning to live a life that's truly your own. Welcome to Seoul. Welcome to the spotlight. Welcome to Superboy: Seoul Vibes. (Disclaimer: This fanfiction is a work of fiction and is not intended to depict real life events or people accurately.

Superman Cape of Red
This story is unlike many others. Instead of Kal-El, son of Jor-El, landing on Earth and becoming the world's first superhero, Superman, this one takes a different turn. He swaps places with his cousin, Kara Zor El aka Powergirl, resulting in Clark arriving on Earth later than expected. As a result, Clark grows up in a world already populated by numerous existing superheroes and villains. So, when Clark eventually becomes Superman, how will he stand out? What makes Superman different from any other superhero? Why do we need Superman?

Super Girl: The Unexpected Kryptonian (I)
I never given any thought to of being a hero. Let alone help Kara and Kal-El save a few dozen people, go through a breached portal from time to time and meet The Flash, Green Arrow, and Batwoman or even travel through time. I thought keeping a low profile at L-Corp would be easy but it has been anything but. I DO NOT OWN ANY CW & DC'S SUPER GIRL CHARACTERS, Except Nala, Jude, and the Vel-Tem & Velez family characters.

Indestructible: Superman x BlackOC
NEW COVER - SAME STORY A superman story like no other, far from any canon in existence, Kal-El made his way to Earth as an infant, not to be discovered by the Kents, but by the Luthors! (for all my true DC geeks, think Ultraman's story expanded) Moving to the inner city of Metropolis during middle school, Clark and Lex quickly filled their roles as the cocky, @sshole jock and even bigger @sshole genius respectively. Their rise to popularity was almost instantaneous with the Luthor name and bank account behind them. Clark Luthor is a complicated creature. Sure, he's incredibly powerful, but he always found himself at odds with his ingenious brother Lex, competing for their father Lionel's approval and attention. Rather than hiding behind nerdy glasses (don't come for me, y'all, I love nerdy Clark Kent), Clark Luthor's upbringing turned him into something much darker and more dangerous. But this story isn't really about him, it's about the shy and quirky girl who seems impervious to death or permanent injury who unfortunately gains his attention. Follow Lyra Queen's story and find out what happens 😉. TW: bullying, harassment, violence, etc. NSFW and def 18+ (read at your own risk). This follows no canon, but lmk if you have characters from DC you wanna see. Also, this (like all my stories) features a black main character and many (maybe all) of the other DC characters in the story will be BIPOC. Iykyk. No apolgoies.Complete
