Kong Kenan ( ; ) is a superhero appearing in comic book published by DC Comics and is known as the Super-Man of China. The character, who first appeared in New Super-Man # 1 (July 2016), was created by Gene Luen Yang and Viktor Bogdanovic.

A comic book series featuring a Chinese Superman who gains a portion of Superman's power debuted in July 2016 for DC Rebirth. The title was previously announced as The Super-Man but was changed to New Super-Man once Yang came on board and pointed out that there is no Chinese word for "the". The title initially shipped monthly. It became New Super-Man & the Justice League of China for issues #20-24.

Kong was given a new design and was featured as a supporting character of the Superman family in Action Comics #1051 in January 2023, which is the debut of a new format for the title and part of the Dawn of DC event.

Kong Kenan is a 17-year old high school student from Shanghai whose estranged relationship with his father Kong Zhongdan after his mother Kuang Maitai died in a plane accident when Kenan was young turns him into a self-centered bully. Despite his arrogance, Kenan stands up to a local supervillain, which is captured on social media and turns him into a celebrity. Because of his heroic actions and recent stardom, Kenan is chosen by Doctor Omen of the Ministry of Self-Reliance to be the new Super-Man of China. Kenan is taken to the Ministry's headquarters at the Oriental Pearl Tower, where he is given superpowers by an unusual form of kryptonite infused with Superman's qi, which was imbued with the life force of the recently deceased New 52 Superman.
