Warning! Spoilers ahead for Infinite Frontier: Secret Files #1!
By day, he is known as Calvin Ellis, the President of Earth-23. By night, Calvin is the Superman of Earth-23. President Superman, created by Grant Morrison and JG Jones, first appeared in Final Crisis. Later, he returned in Multiversity which saw the introduction of the Justice Incarnate, the Justice League of the Multiverse. Now, in anticipation of the Infinite Frontier mini-series, readers can get a greater insight into the leader of the Justice Incarnate in Infinite Frontier: Secret Files #1, which is dedicated to him.
In being the President of Earth-23.
As Director Bones states, Calvin is quite similar to all the other Superman's in of his origin. Calvin shares many of the key "foundational elements" that make Superman himself. He comes from Krypton, he was raised on Earth, he has superpowers, and he is a hero. These are all defining factors of every iteration of Superman, on any Earth. What makes Calvin unique is that he doesn't just rule through superpowered might, but through political power as well. Parallels could be drawn to the many times that Lex Luthor has found ultimate power by becoming the president. It lends him an upper hand as he is well respected and can do what's best for humanity through both sides.
Though President Superman has the same power levels as Clark Kent, he excels on another unique level. His power to do what's right is far beyond anyone else, but that's not even the last point. President Superman leads the Justice Incarnate, arguably the most vital Justice League in the Multiverse. They act as the first line of defense from the Multiverse's coming threats. Infinite Frontier: Secret Files is a series that acts as a predecessor, introducing us to our heroes, before the coming crisis at the hands of Darkseid in Infinite Frontier #1.
