While the new Superman Jon Kent is certainly an inspiration to the world just like his father, he's also going a step beyond Kal-El and taking direct action to encourage new perspectives among Metropolis' citizens.
In the latest issue of DC's Superman: Son of Kal-El, Jon Kent wants to be incredibly intentional with those he protects, going beyond simple inspiration through action and directly speaking into their lives . When a giant sea creature is unearthed from the depths of the ocean near Metropolis, Jon and the new Aquaman Jackson Hyde team up to make sure everyone stays safe .
In previous issues of Superman: Son of Kale-El, Jon Kent has created a new rival for himself in the form of Henry Bendix, the corrupt and powerful president of Gamorra and owner of a secret army of manufactured metahumans. Currently, the news of the leviathan in this new issue from writer Tom Taylor and artist Cian Tormey is a chance for Bendix to show off the superpowered puppets that are completely under his control.
Case in point, the true monster ends up being Bendix who forces one of his metahumans to freeze in the path of the leviathan after they attack it, making it look as though the sea creature has murdered him. Of course, this creates a mass public panic as a result, something Bendix must have been counting on.
While the issue sadly ends in disaster with Superman standing in between the leviathan and Bendix's team of metas posing as heroes, Jon Kent still had his personal victory with the kid. Hopefully, the young boy will take Jon's words to heart and live out his life accordingly, encouraged by Superman himself to not make snap judgments in regards to the things and people he might not understand right away.
