The secret identity of the Superman of 2956. King was a mild-mannered telenews reporter for the Daily Solar System. He assumed the role of the thirtieth-century Superman at the behest of a delegation of leading scientists who provided him with a variety of special scientific gadgets—including "concealed jet units for flight" and "a concealed degravitator to make heavy things light"—that enabled him to simulate, albeit somewhat imperfectly, some of Superman's mighty super-powers. As the Superman of 2956, King attempted to bring a halt the mysterious scientific thefts that had been plaguing his era's city of Metropolis.
