Soon, she traveled to that world, where she became a champion for justice and equality as Wonder Woman.
Powers & Abilities: The Amazon Princess possesses godlike strength, speed, and the ability to fly. She’s also a skilled warrior, wearing bullet-deflecting bracelets and wielding the Lasso of Truth to stop criminals in their tracks and compel them to tell the truth!
Alter Ego: Clark Kent
Related Locations: Metropolis, Smallville, Krypton
Bio: Sent to Earth from the dying planet of Krypton as a baby, Kal-El was found by farmers, Martha and Jonathan Kent, and raised as their son, Clark.
