1941



1941 is the second year of the 1940s and the forty-first year of the 20th century.

A young girl is molded from clay by Hippolyta, and brought to life by Aphrodite, who named her after the moon goddess; Diana.

Jor-El places his son Kal-El in a rocket and sends it toward Earth, just as Krypton explodes, causing the near-extinction of the Kryptonian race.

Kal-El's rocket ship crash-lands near a farm in Smallville, where he is found and eventually adopted by Jonathan and Martha Kent. They name the boy Clark, after Martha's maiden name. They soon learn that this boy is no normal boy, as his super powers become evident.
