Comment(s):
- The story takes place over twenty or more years, following Kal-El's arrival on Earth to becoming Superman.
- The events are presented as an "Imaginary" Story, placing the baby Kal-El in Gotham City and raised by Thomas and Martha Wayne. The events of this story were later designated as occurring on "Earth-353" in Crisis on Infinite Earths: Absolute Edition (November 2005.)
