Superman is a character created by DC Comics.
Introduction
Superman was conceived by Jerry Siegel and Joe Schuster; two Jewish immigrants, in 1938, and first appeared in Issue #1 of Action Comics (dated June 1938). They had already written a story with a similar "super-powered alien" concept before.
Backstory
He was the son of the Kryptonians Jor-El and Lara, who sent him to Earth on a capsule during the destruction of the planet Krypton. The capsule landed in the town of Smallville, where he was found by the human couple of Jonathan and Martha Kent, who raised him as his own son, giving him the name of Clark. Jonathan and Martha then found out about his alien origin and powers.
When he grew up, he began working as a reporter for the Daily Planet newspaper in Metropolis.

Influence
