History[]
Jessica Kent was born in the small town of Smallville, Kansas. She eventually married Hiram Kent and they lived together on a farm. Shortly after a young woman named Louise was supposedly murdered, Jessica and HIram came across her lover, a drifter named "Joe." In truth, the "drifter" was actually the Kryptonian Jor-El. Because the Kents showed him kindness, and seeing the good people they were, Jor El decided to send his son Kal-El to the Kents when Krypton was destroyed.
She later gave birth to a son, Jonathan. At some point, Jessica and Hiram passed away before they had a chance to meet their adoptive grandson. Martha noted Jessica was a pack-rat, as she kept Jonathan's toys for Clark to play with when they recently adopted him
