Since his creation over 75 years ago, Superman has gained a reputation for being one of the most over-powered characters in fiction. After his alien parents jettisoned him to Earth from their exploding world, our planet's yellow sun nourished his developing body, ensuring he had all of the powers of an average Kryptonian. Average to a Kryptonian, but awe-inspiring to us ordinary humans. Superman's body functions like a solar-powered battery; when charged up with radiation he possesses superhuman strength, speed, stamina and reflexes. All of his senses are greatly enhanced, especially his vision, allowing him to see telescopically and microscopically, as well in X-Ray, infrared, and into the electromagnetic spectrum. He can also use some of his senses offensively in the form of his heat vision and super breath.
