Which DC superhero is known as the 'Man of Steel'?

The DC superhero known as the “Man of Steel” is Superman. Born Kal-El on the planet Krypton and raised on Earth as Clark Kent, he is one of the most recognizable figures in superhero history.

Superman first appeared in Action Comics #1 in 1938, created by writer Jerry Siegel and artist Joe Shuster. His powers typically include superhuman strength, flight, speed, durability, heat vision, and heightened senses. Under Earth’s yellow Sun, his Kryptonian biology gives him abilities far beyond those of humans.

The nickname “Man of Steel” reflects Superman’s near-invulnerability and enduring moral strength. It is also the title of several Superman stories and the 2013 film Man of Steel. The Flash, Wonder Woman, and Batman are fellow DC heroes, but they are not associated with this specific epithet.
