  • Martha Clark Kent and Jonathan Kent, also known as Ma and Pa Kent, are fictional characters published by DC Comics. The Kents are the adoptive parents of Superman. They live in the small town of Smallville, USA. The couple is usually portrayed as being either late middle aged or elderly. In most versions of Superman's origin story, Jonathan and Martha were the first to come across the rocket that brought the infant Kal-El to Earth, with their adopting him shortly thereafter, renaming him Clark Kent — "Clark" being Martha's maiden name. The Kents are usually portrayed as caring parents who instill within Clark a strong sense of morals, and they encourage Clark to use his powers for the betterment of humanity. In most continuities Martha is also the one who creates Clark's superhero costume. In DC Comics continuity before John Byrne's 1986 reboot of the Superman series, Martha and Jonathan Kent died shortly after Clark's high school graduation; in the current comics' continuity, they both remained alive even after Clark became an adult, and remained important supporting characters together, until Pa Kent's recent death during an attack by the supervillain Brainiac.
