Solar Energy Absorption: Clark's cellular structure allows him to absorb, store and metabolize the wavelength of yellow sun radiation to fuel all of his abilities. Direct exposure to sunlight will also accelerate his absorption rate. He can also drain solar energy stored in plants to recharge and heal himself. Having been constantly exposed to yellow sunlight and maturing with it since infancy has allowed him to store up energy in far greater quantities and metabolize it with equal efficiency than other Kryptonians. He can even submerge himself into the sun itself to temporarily boost his powers just as vastly, reaching levels that cannot be forcibly drained by others.

• Enhanced Mental Capacity: Clark's mind is very advanced and efficient, surpassing most humans. It works at computational levels, able to process and prioritize a massive information input. So fast and sharp, he has a perfect memory and recall. He can assimilate, perceive, comprehend, and calculate the mechanics of any and all information he experiences to its fullest in seconds. From this, he can learn lifetimes worth of knowledge and academics within days and no loss of information. He can also use the information to cross-correlate and multitask with no problems. After traveling to the Inverse World, he quickly adjusted to its backwards speaking
• Superhuman Strength: Clark possesses tremendous physical strength, the exact limits of which are unknown, able to lift a massive submarine and contend with Doomsday. Clark's strength is such that he can repel and knock out other empowered Kryptonians with little difficulty. The sheer might in his strikes can produce powerful shockwaves. When clapping his hands together, Clark can create a powerful shockwave. It can easily shatter glass, push objects away and disorient anyone nearby.
• Invulnerability: While soft to the touch, Clark possesses extraordinary physical durability. This earned him the moniker of "Man of Steel" as he is practically impervious to injury and pain. His resilience also protects him from most harmful elements like crushing weights, energy attacks, and extreme temperatures. He can also survive harsh environments such as under water and out space unprotected. Due to his lifelong time in the young sun, Clark's durability is noticeably greater than other Kryptonians. Even compared to Tal-Rho, who could only get close to the sun while merged with the Eradicator, Clark could survive entering the sun in his depowered state while letting his cells recharge, although he endured great pain during which. Their bodies are nigh-invulnerable due to the interaction of their physical body combined with their radiating bio-electrical aura. Kryptonians' invulnerability has been in constant fluctuation over the years. They have been shown surviving the blast of nuclear warheads, entering the Earth's sun, and emerging unharmed and surviving the impact of an exploding sun.
  • Force Field: A Kryptonian's bio-electric "aura" acts as an invisible "force field" radiating within a few millimeters from their skin. They can willfully utilize their aura, strengthening its power to a greater degree to provide an additional defense against certain levels of physical and energy attacks for a considerably short period of time, but doing so can endanger them should the attempted feat prove inefficient for any reason. Kryptonians utilize their aura by expanding it around a person(s) or object(s) to enable their structural stability when lifting or traveling with them. When super-charged, it can display itself more easily by covering a Kryptonian's body in a glowing light. The force field has a protective nature, as it can prevent them from getting wet and allows them to breathe underwater. However, the extent of its effects is unknown.
• Superhuman Speed: Clark is able to move and run immense levels of speed, able to cover global distances in seconds and catch a speeding bullet in his hands. While flying, Clark can reach speeds that can match those of a speedster, as shown when flying in a attempt to catch Tag Harris. His speed is fast enough to exit Earth’s atmosphere within seconds as Lois once told Chrissy that it takes around 10 seconds for Clark to reach her location no matter where she is.
  • Accelerated Perception: Clark's perception of the world through is accelerated speed lets him see everything in slowed motion; allowing him to move with precision and accuracy within very fast moments. It also allows him to process, calculate, and understand information at super speeds.
• Superhuman Reflexes: Clark's speed extends to his reflexes as well. He can respond to danger and events within seconds, even against other super fast individuals. Even without using his Kryptonian speeds, Clark reflex's are much greater than the average human or even meta-human.
• Superhuman Agility: Known to "leap tall buildings in a single bound", Clark is able to jump tremendous heights and lengths off the ground from a stationary position without having to fly. To which, he will usually he jump upwards before shooting skyward with his flight. With his speed and flight, Clark is very agile being able to dodge, maneuver and even move around his foes, building, or obstacles at a superhuman level.
• Superhuman Stamina: Clark can run, fight or fly without getting tired seemingly endlessly. Even when physically hurt in battle, he can continue his efforts with no tangible decline in his performance. Clark can even stand in battles that last hours without tiring, or fights that last days without showing major signs of fatigue.
• Accelerated Healing Factor: Clark's enhanced metabolism grants him accelerated healing abilities, able to without treatment mend most damage far quicker and more efficiently than normal humans, with no lingering signs. After being embedded with several shards of Kryptonite in his chest and collapsed from the injuries, he within seconds of having the shards removed made a full recovery.
  • Contaminant Immunity: Clark has an immunity to all forms of illness, virus, disease, poison, toxin, or other exposures on Earth.
• Flight: Clark is able to manipulate his own gravitational field to levitate himself in midair and generate thrust to propel himself through the air at tremendous hyper-sonic speeds, even faster than he can travel by foot.
• Heat Vision: Clark can project red energy beams from his eyes. With his control, he can regulate their capacities various feats. The heat can go between melting seamlessly though solid stone and wielded metal or simple manual labor like heating up food. They can focus to produce explosions or bounce off reflective surfaces. The intensity can also become massive to instead cause concussive force that repel and potentially damage targets of high durability or narrow for pinpoint accuracy.
  • Solar Flare: Clark can immediately expel massive amounts of stored solar energy from his body. This attack is much more powerful than his regular heat vision, however, using this renders himself mostly powerless and must recharge afterwards. However, this drawback can be bypassed if he is supercharged by the Sun, as he would be containing excess energy.
• Self-Sustenance: Clark's physical needs are greatly reduced, if not completely removed, as he does not need nutrients, or beyond personal enjoyment. Even without training and regardless of what unhealthy food he ingests, his physique remains powerful and at peak performance. Unlike most Kryptonians, Clark does not require air and retains this ability even when his cells were damaged.
• Telepathy Immunity: Clark is immune to most forms of telepathic powers, including mind-reading and brainwashing.
• Sonic Scream: Clark's vocal cords are equally powerful. Unaided, he can release a booming scream, able to be heard from thousands of miles away at once This is shown when he was searching for his son, Jordan and yelled out his name that was loud enough to be heard throughout the entire Earth and be picked up by the latter’s hearing.
• Superhuman Breath: Thanks to his incredible lung capacity, Clark is also able to draw in large amounts of air and then expel it all to create gale and hurricane force winds to extinguish fires. He can also chill his breath to freeze targets. His lungs can also go for remarkably long periods of time without needing air.
• Superhuman Senses: Clark's senses are immensely heightened, able to perceive virtually everything around him as well as allowing vast control to grant him selective perception and focus. This likewise grants him greater dexterity, aim, and general efficiency of movement to all situations.
  • Superhuman Hearing: Clark can hear and determine virtually any sound around the planet, even through solid matter, no matter how small and subtle or the distance. He could pick up danger like a robbery in Spain or a bridge that was about to break in China. His hearing is also so acute, he can determine when people are lying from their heart rate, perceive and distinguish the frequencies of radio waves, as well as determine an individual and their location by voice alone.
  • Superhuman Smell: Clark has an enhanced olfactory sense. With it, he can notice and distinguish distinct odors and scents, even from great distances. He can track a target by the smell, recognize someone as nervous by smelling adrenaline increase, even determine the chemicals on a person as seen when he smelled alcohol on Jordan.
  • Superhuman Vision: Clark's vision is much greater than the average human or meta-human, because of this he can see much more than the average human, such as heat, the electromagnetic spectrum and even see through things.
    • Electromagnetic Spectrum Vision: Clark can see well into the entire electromagnetic spectrum, able to interpret and differentiate between the various forms and types of energy in fields, rays, waves, signals and frequencies. This includes from electronic transmissions, radiations, ultraviolet, and cosmic essence. Using this ability, he can avoid detection by radar or satellite monitoring methods.
    • Infrared Vision: Clark is able to see the heat signatures radiated off of individuals. He used this power to detect the bodies of Jon and Jordan when they became buried under the metal beams in the barn.
    • Night Vision: Clark could see in the dark like it was during daytime.
    • Microscopic Vision: Clark can see extremely small objects and images beyond subatomic level and improved his accuracy.
    • Telescopic Vision: Clark is able to focus his vision to see great distances. He used this power to see Sam Lane driving to the farm from miles away.
    • X-Ray Vision: Clark can focus his vision past layers of matter to see through them, as if they were natural transparent.
