When Superman was just a teenage boy the whole superhero thing was unknown territory. Ma Kent had not yet figured out how to make his costume so it did not look like a kid still in his pajamas and it was not clear what it meant to be super. As Superboy, he began mostly doing good deeds like walking people across busy streets, carrying bags of groceries for old people and mowing lawns for free at super fast speeds. Soon evil came in the form of super villains like Lex Luthor, Branianc and other terrible threats too numerous to name. When he grew up to be Superman, he would often fly over the ocean and dream about those simple days as a boy back in Smallville when all it took to be super were little acts of kindness.
