Superman is easily the most popular Superhero alive, to the point that you’re your grandma has and her pet dog has probably heard of him. Needless to say when a character is this popular for this long they tend to inspire quite a few copycats.
But some clones are better than the others and even grow in their own rights from the large shadow cast by superman by doing things a bit differently.
So here are the 5 best Superman clones with a unique twist:
Marvel and DC have been copying each other’s homework for as long as they’ve been writing stories about superhumans in tights, and there are quite a few copycat characters (eg. Swampthing & Man thing) and so it’s no surprise they have a superman clone as well.
How similar are they you ask:
Hyperion was send to earth from an alien planet before his planet exploded
Hyperion gains his powers from the radiation of the sun
Hyperion’s power set includes superhuman strength/speed/endurance, flight and heat vision (although he calls it Atomic vision for all the difference that makes)
Man Marvel wasn’t even trying to hide their ‘inspiration’ with this one
Are you one of those people who really like the pairing of Batman and Superman but just wished they’d kiss a bit more. Or do you lurk the stranger parts of the internet to read fan-fiction about Bats and Supes getting it on.
Well do I have the Hero for you: Enter Apollo, a superhuman with flight and sun based powers, who fights crime with his life-partner a brooding guy good at fighting and dressed in all black Batma…er I mean Midnighter.
This Super-couple is published by DC itself and I think naming the hero after the Greek Sun-God Apollo who was famously bisexual was a nice touch.
Now let’s take that same story of an alien with superpowers crashing into earth. Now let’s add that the alien shape shifts to take the features of the closest sentient life form around him, in this case a Blackwomen in 1839, who finds him in the form of a baby and raises him as her own.
