Overlords-verse: Superman (read desc)
What's that you say? I already did him? Well yeah, I did, but not in enough detail. I completely neglected to tell the story of his debut as Superman, or when he found out he was different. There's not much to the minifig, so we'll ignore that. I'm not sure how far I'll go, as the original bio kinda covers the more recent history. As always, please lemme know what you think :D
Superman
As Clark Kent grew up on the family farm, he began to notice he was different. He could run faster than a train, leap over the barn, and see and hear things several miles away. He was stronger than his siblings, John and Mary. Jonathan and Martha agreed it was time to tell him of his heritage, how they had found him in a capsule in their field (they left out the part where Jonathan accidentally shot his birth mother). Naturally, Clark was taken aback by this revelation. He had always known he was different, that he didn't quite fit in. Now he knew why.
This was in 1913, the year before the outbreak of World war I. Although Clark wanted to use his powers to help people, his parents were able to persuade him to stay on the farm, for fear of what would happen to him if the world found out about his existence. However, once the war ended, Clark was able to convince his parents that he could use his powers to help people, and that it was inhuman not to. Now aged 19, Clark was convinced that he could help people. So, Martha made him a suit, using the blanket he was found in, and the symbol that was emblazoned on his ships hull. Although they didn't know what it meant, Clark felt a connection to it. It was only later that he found out its true meaning.
So, Clark used his powers to help people. He started with his hometown of Smallville, and worked his way up to Metropolis, where he one day wished to live. He started with minor crimes, before working his way up to bigger issues. There was a newspaper article about his antics every week, written by the up and coming journalist, Lois Lane, who Clark was quite fond of. Everything was going well, until 1938, when news of war once again reared its ugly head. In Europe, this war was spreading like the plague. Although he desperately wanted to help, he had agreed with his parents that it was for the best for him to stay out of international conflict, and away from war.
This was until a stray Japanese Bomber hit the farm, killing his parents. Thankfully, his brother and sister had moved away to begin their own lives in the newly built city of Metropolis. Devastated by his parents death, Clark swore revenge, and took to the skies, his destination: The nearest military sign-up site. He became a soldier, providing critical support to US troops in the pacific war. It was during this time that he met others like him. Wonder woman and Shazam. Like him, they knew they couldn't just stand by and let the world go to ruin. So they fought. For freedom.
Once the war was over, the trio returned to the United States. Together, they formed the Justice society of America, alongside many others. They became Americas first super human team, and fought against many terrible foes. The society was flourishing, until their first tragedy: The death of Kent Nelson. Subsequently, Alan Scott left the league to find his replacement, and the league began to fracture. But not for long.
Over time, more heroes joined the team, and the Justice society of America evolved into the Justice league of America. As more and more members joined, the JLA went worldwide, becoming simply, The Justice league. Everything was going well. Until the invasion of the new god Darkseid in 1999, which brought with it the Millennium war.
