Overview
In this Pre-Superman series, two farmers, Jonathan and Marha Kent, discover an alien infant in a spaceship during a meteor shower raining down on Smalville, Kansas, and decide to adopt the boy, renaming hm Clark and teaching him to use his supernatural powers. As a teenager, Clark discovers his origin as Kal-El the Last Son of Krypton, and becomes Superboy. Now Clark must protect his identity from his friends, as he copes with adolscence to become the "Man of Steel".

The series also focuses on the people in Clark's life; his parents, Jonathan and Martha Kent. His friends, Chloe Sullivan, Pete Ross, and T.J. White. His off-and-on again romance Lana Lang. His mutual frenemyship, to friendship, to romance with his Daily Plane co-hort Lois Lane. And most importantly his friendship to arch-rivalry with Lex Luthor.

The mineral kryptonite is used as a recurring plot device throughout the series. Kryptonite is shown to have bizarre and lingering effects on human physiology and the young canine often encounters mutated and psychotic villains who have developed bizarre powers, such as psychic abilities, shape shifting, and other paranormal abilities. On a Kryptonian like Clark, though, kryptonite has very different effects; the general idea is that Krypto is virtually invincible except when around the kryptonite rocks. There are multiple colors of kryptonite that affect kryptonians in different ways. Green kryptonite physically weakens Krypto and could possibly kill him if he is exposed to it for too long. Red kryptonite causes him to set aside moral standings and act out on his impulses and dark desires. Black kryptonite splits Krypto into (and merges him back together from) two separate beings that exhibit his two personalities (Clark and the darker Kal-El). Silver kryptonite (which is solely the creation of Brainiac in the show) causes him extreme paranoia. Blue kryptonite takes away his abilities, bu only as long as he's around it. Lastly,Gold Kryptonite can permanently damage or scar a Kryptonian and take away their powers permanently.
