And what this can imply for Jon Kent. But what are the broader implications for the DC Universe as a complete?Well, it simply received much more harmful. A lot.
1. A Very Super Secret
(*8*)
So the Justice League, Titans and Superman’s household all nonetheless know that Clark Kent and Jon Kent are Supermen. But in the event that they inform anybody else, on objective or accidentally, then the individual they point out this to, dies. It could be value mentioning this to them. All of them.

Then there’s those that simply handle to work out that Clark Kent is Superman. Those glasses will not idiot everybody. The merest suggestion, inkling or stray consideration and, bam! They’re on the ground”
3. Are You A Bit Psychic?
It’s not simply the superheroes who’ve psychic defences. A bunch of supervillains could have as effectively. Some of them are precise psychics themselves. And now they’ve a homicide weapon at their fingers. All Captain Cold has to do to kill folks is to whisper “of course, you know that Clark Kent is Superman, right?” and they’re useless.
4. Superman Vs The Birth Rate
This psychic imprint is just going to have an effect on those that are alive. But hundreds of thousands of individuals are born on daily basis and they’ll have entry to the web. People with the psychic imprint might not be capable of see tweets about Clark Kent and Superman, however in seven years’ time a brand new technology goes to know and be speaking about it when taking part in Fortnite. All over the world, folks older than that will likely be dropping useless for actual throughout Battle Royale. Reading out a textbook that mentions Clark Kent is Superman aloud at school would kill academics.

7. Parallel Dimensions Too
As we see in Action Comics #1050, different dimensions nonetheless know that Clark Kent and Jon Kent are Supermen are as effectively. And they’re at all times popping by way of the Bleed. See time travellers, above.

Still, what occurred to Perry White when he realized that Clark Kent was Superman, would possibly imply Lois Lane will likely be up for Editor-In-Chief of the Daily Planet now…
Silver linings…
