Biography[]
The Martha Kent robot was an artificial android designed to resemble Martha Kent the way she would have looked some twenty years prior to the modern era. Along with a robotic version of Jonathan Kent, the Martha Kent robot was stationed in an exact scale facsimile of Smallville, Kansas, which had been erected somewhere in the Dakotas. The Martha Kent robot was constructed by Kenny Braverman using resources derived from the Pipeline freelance intelligence agency.
Unlike the real Martha Kent, the Martha Kent robot was designed to effuse the merits of Kenny Braverman, while decrying the actions of Clark Kent, aka Superman. The robot was outfitted with twin Gatlin guns housed within its forearms and opened fire on Superman when he arrived at the fake Smallville in search of Braverman. Superman repelled the {Martha Kent robot and the Jonathan Kent robot with a burst of super-breath.
