But don’t worry – the laser eyes, super speed, and saving the world are still there, just with the high school angst and neighborhood gossip thrown in.

Watching Superman try to raise teenagers is a plot twist, especially when he has to face a threat more terrifying than Lex Luthor: the secrets of moody teenagers who didn’t actually sign up to be half-Kryptonian.
