    Years ago, Klar Ken T5477 took over the role of Superman from his father, a role passed from father to son since the original Superman 1000 years before. The descendants of Superman have become immune to all forms of kryptonite, however a chemical residue left in sea water by a past atomic war paralyzes all people of Kryptonian descent. In the year 2965, Superman is deputized by the Federation of Planets to act as a lawman with unlimited powers. Klar is an ultra-news reporter who receives his latest assignment: Muto, one of this Superman's greatest foes, has been seen robbing a Neptunian bank.
