He even has a device that absorbs powers and gives the villain access to all the Kryptonian memories.
1. His relationship with his Son: Superman only has one Son in the comic. However, in the show, he has two, and only one of them has powers. Superman tries to balance saving the world and bringing up his sons, training them, teaching them how to be, and being a good dad for both of them. He instructs both of them and tries his best to keep them out of trouble.
