grew up unaware of his heritage, potential powers, or superman's identity, but was always mildly suspicious, until he and lois got kidnapped and he discovered he inherited his dad's kryptonian powers. while discovering his powers, he tried flying unsupervised and got lost, only being found by nightwing hours later, sitting in a cave he carved out with his heat vision to keep safe. he's looked up to nightwing since. later, while searching for
a christmas tree, jon accidentally torched some trees near a swamp but was rescued by some vigilantes. he was brought to the batcave for questioning, where he found out that robin - damian, at that point - had been keeping him under surveillance for a while. they didn't get along, and it only got worse when batman and superman arrived, who each blamed each other for the tension between the kid. jon stopped them from fighting using his powers and explained the situation to them. superman and batman decided that, to properly discipline their sons and teach them the value of working together, they had to undergo a series of challenges, but their lack of teamwork caused them to fail every challenge. the boys finally managed to put aside their differences and save their fathers from an apparent threat in the batcave, which later turned out to be a ruse. at this point, alfred pennyworth declared them to supersons, and they were best friends who worked together since. one year later, when he was 11, after jon got his powers and started working as superboy, the kent family was visited by superman's time displaced father and jon's grandfather, jor-el. he had come to take jon on a trip through space to better educate him about the known universe. lois and clark initially refused, but jon tearfully revealed his insecurities to his parents, stating that this could be an opportunity to better understand himself. convinced, lois agreed and volunteered to go with them. a short time later, lois returned to earth and their ship suddenly fell into a black hole. jon crashed to earth 3, where he was taken prisoner by a villain called ultraman, who imprisoned him in a volcano for years. he eventually managed to escape, spending an indeterminate amount of time helping the needy on earth 3, to varying reactions. after some time, Jon attempted to break into the crime syndicate headquarters in order to find a way home. jon was then rescued by jor-el and sent back to earth, where he found that although years had passed for him, on earth it had only been three weeks since he left. he was 6 years older than he should've been, but everything on earth was the same.
