everything you know about Superman has changed because this is absolute Superman a version of Superman created by dark side when he merged with the Spectre and created his own universe and actually the backstory and meaning behind Superman's iconic s is completely changed in this version of Superman's back story he comes from a cast system on Krypton and now his symbol the symbol of the L's pretty much means that you're garbage cuz the ruling class of Krypton is a bunch of clerics known as the science league and they're the ones that are responsible pretty much for
the death of Krypton and actually the way that the science League designates its lower cast of citizens is through them questioning the science League's practices like in the case of Superman's mom laara lur van she wrote an essay criticizing krypton's lack of funding for Interstellar exploration and because of this she was ruled unruly and forbidden from ever applying to the Science Academy when she was nine as for his dad jorel was getting ready to be a high ranking member of the science league but at his graduation he gave a speech condemning what he saw as
the science League's environmental recklessness which gets him sent down to become a laborer
