Superman has been missing for five years, since traveling to the location where astronomers believed they had discovered the remains of Krypton. During his absence, Superman's nemesis Lex Luthor has been released from prison. Superman, having failed in his quest to find surviving Kryptonians, returns to Earth and, as Clark Kent, resumes his job at the Daily Planet in Metropolis. Lois Lane has moved on from her relationship with Superman. The world rejoices at Superman's return, but he has difficulty coping with Lois' fiancé, Richard White, nephew of Daily Planet editor-in-chief Perry White, and their 5-year-old son, Jason. Luthor steals Kryptonite and plans using one of Kal-El’s Kryptonian crystals, which he has combined with the Kryptonite, to grow a new continental landmass in the Northern Atlantic Ocean that will cause sea levels to rise drastically, killing billions of people.
