The new Superman Jon Kent has found himself at odds with Batman, and in his first confrontation with the caped crusader he stands his ground better than his father ever did. Just as Jon has found himself in a happy relationship, Batman has come into town to rain on his parade. While most in the DC universe wouldn't dare step up to Bruce Wayne, Jon Kent pushes back despite his fear, giving him a big standout moment early in his career.
Recently, Jon has joined the Truth - a citizen journalist and activist organization run by Jay Nakamura, which is targeting the corrupt regime of Henry Bendix. While Jon has been excited to improve on his father's ability to fight for a better tomorrow, Jay's ties to the nation of Gamorra have the Dark Knight worried, and last issue Batman stepped in to tell the new Superman that he can't trust his boyfriend.
While he may have reacted rashly, Jon's willingness to stand up to Batman makes him stand out from his father in a huge way. Bruce Wayne and Kal-El have been best friends and sometime enemies throughout their long, storied careers, but Superman has struggled to stand up to Batman when the two disagree. That's not to say they haven't had some epic battles, and that Superman hasn't had his fair share of wins.
Now that Clark's son has taken the mantle from his father, a new relationship is growing and it's already looking to be a more tumultuous situation. This might, however, be a good thing for Jon. While Batman definitely has a major advantage in the experience department, Jon has the chance to change their dynamic in his favor. Although he let his youth show through his reaction to Batman's accusations, the young Superman is already taking strides in making himself in his own image.
