** At one point, even ''Doctor Doom'' falls victim to this, unaware that Superman was sent to Earth just before Krypton's destruction. When Doom offers Superman a mystical artefact that would allow him to go home and Superman reveals that there ''isn't'' any home for him to go back to, Doom abandons his current plan with what could be considered sympathetic regret by Doom's usual standards.

** Most with their reactions to Superman's powers.
** At the end of Book 2, after Superman and the X-Men have been seen in public, Nick Fury lays out a plan to cover this up as "special operatives," that Superman joins the Avengers and the U.S. government takes over the Fortress. Fury tells Superman, "If you want this plan to work, you have no choice,"...only for Superman and the X-Men to say they're not doing any coverup but are ready to tell the world about them. For Fury, the master of keeping secrets, seeing Superman ready to go so public is unexpected and he has to go with it.

[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/3310696/1/The-Last-Son-Book-Two-Reckonings Part 2]] expands the character roster considerably and sets up the formation of the Franchise/{{Justice League|of America}}. It also introduces Superman's {{Love Interest|s}} ('''NOT''' Lois Lane). The plot diverges considerably from ''X-Men: Evolution'' at the climax of this part. The primary villain here is Doctor Doom but other villains have an impact as well.

[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/4009890/1/The-Last-Son-Book-Three-Changes Part 3]] begins with the world adjusting to the existence of mutants, Superman, and his independent Franchise/{{Justice League|of America}}. Even more characters are brought in here and various factions attempt to bring down Superman. At this point the plot only vaguely resembles ''X-Men: Evolution'', with the basic events still happening but going OffTheRails in creative ways. Three-quarters through this part the story begins the invasion arc where Shi'ar, Kree, and Skrulls invade Earth simultaneously in a race to seize the Kryptonian technology Superman possesses.

This trait is used against [[spoiler:Noram, Namor's clone, who is too "young" to have properly trained himself to the same extent, and so requires more regular access to water where Namor and Aquaman can outlast him]].
