Welcome to the Wellington Comic Lover’s (WCL) Guide, where we take you through the Wellington City Libraries’ collection of a comic book character. This guide is about the undercover reporter himself, Superman!

Who is Superman?

Sent away in a rocket from the doomed planet Krypton as an infant, Kal-El arrived on Earth and was raised by a kindly couple, who taught him the values of truth and justice. Gaining incredible superpowers under Earth’s yellow sun, he protects his adopted home as Superman, while working for the newspaper 'The Daily Planet' as the reporter Clark Kent.
