The Jonathon, Martha, and Clark Kent lived on a ten acre farm in Smallville. She inherited it from her first husband, who had passed away. 3....... Clark Kent's favorite meal is Beef Bourguignon (with ketchup) 4....... On the black and white Superman TV show, the Superman costume was actually brown! 5....... Clark Kent met mermaid Lori Lemaris while a senior at Metropolis University. It's a long story, by the fell in love and almost got married! 6....... When Superman started out in the comics, he could only leap, not fly. (about 1/8 mile) 7....... Unless stated otherwise, Superman is always 29 years old in any given story. 8.......
