Earth-395 was where baby Kal-El's ship landed in medieval England. His planet had been destroyed over a millennia before it happened in the main universe. However, he was still found by farmers, only he was raised to be a blacksmith. He attracted the attention of one Lady Loisse, the daughter of his village's former protector, and Baron Luthor, an oppressive land owner. After Luthor found Kal's ship, he had a suit of armor made from its metal. He also invoked a privilege where he could take to his bed any lady on her wedding night, so he took Loisse from Kal after the two wed and used his kryptonite gemstone to keep Kal at bay. Unfortunately, things got worse when Kal discovered that Luthor had beaten Loisse to death during a rape attempt. Kal became infuriated and took up arms against the ruthless, despicable land baron. He led a rebellion,and in final battle with Luthor, the two enemies stabbed each other with their swords (Luthor's was made of kryptonite gemstone).
However, just seconds before his demise, Brainiac spirted Kal away, along with the area, and placed it within one of his domes on Telos, alongside the other numerous cities he had stolen from time and space. He healed Kal and then left the city to its own devices.
FUTURES END #41: Kal was seen by Futures End Hawkman within the grid of cities along with other denizens of other domes.
COMMENTS: Kal's only appearance was in FUTURES END #41. He did not appear in any of the CONVERGENCE tie-ins or the main mini; however, since he was seen in the grid in this issue of FE alongside characters that did appear in CONVERGENCE, this makes the scene in continuity.
It was also rumored in the story that Kal's sword went on to become Excalibur.
