| - Clark Kent and Jor-El's relationship has slowly been fleshed out over the years. Clark also had the opportunity to meet his Kryptonian biological mother Lara-El. Initially, Clark and Jor-El's relationship was turbulent, but changed and progressed over the years. Jor-El's apparent desire for Clark to conquer Earth put Clark at odds with his father, and Jor-El's questionable actions to force his son to fulfill his Kryptonian destiny further strained their relationship. However, as time went on and Jor-El's motives have been revealed to be fundamentally benevolent, Clark began to trust Jor-El, sometimes asking him for aid in overcoming problems and facing particularly challenging foes. Despite this growing bond, Clark's continued refusal to accept his destiny has driven Jor-El to punish him on occasion, such as removing his powers or imprisoning him for a month. Despite these punishments, it is clear that Jor-El cares for his son regardless. Although they are are related by blood and they have gotten closer over the years, Clark still classes his earth father Jonathan Kent as his true father.
