Jor-El Superman Father minifigure from DC Comics

Brand Panda, deluxe minifigure.

Jor-El is a #Kryptonian scientist, prior to Krypton's destruction. He was a member of the Kryptonian Council, and at one time, was its head. Although he was greatly respected amongst his colleagues, they ridiculed him when he predicted the destruction of the planet through his experiments. So, Jor-El is also the father of Kal-El, the boy who is Superman on Earth and uncle of Kara Zor-El who becomes Supergirl on Earth. Prior to Krypton's destruction, he launched Kal-El, as a baby, on an experimental spacecraft toward Earth, a planet he has previously visited.

Although he is now dead, a semblance of his personality lives on as a computer program within Superman's Fortress of Solitude. He appears when called for, and gives his son advice. Additionally, he sometimes attempts to ensure that his son fulfills his Kryptonian destiny. However, Jor-El is a benevolent man, and a great scientist; well ahead of his time on Krypton. He truly cares for his family and even for the inhabitants of Earth.
