Zen El is the Superman of 855th century but goes by the name Temporal and was born on Earth in futuristic Metropolis, with his twin brother Kor El. His parents are Jen EL Kent and Tinya Winema (Wazzo ) EL Kent, the descendant of Gmya Wazzo brother to the Legion of Super-Heroes own Phantom Girl both are scientists.

Before Zen El and Kor El were born, Tinya EL Kent, a Professor of Temporal Mechanics at the Time Institute on Colu-Bgtzl was doing a time vortex experiment. Unknown to her at the time one of the metaphasic shielding was failing, there was an temporal energy backlash for 10 seconds before it was blocked. Tinya's body do to her Colu-Bgtzl Physiology without her thinking Phase shifted during that time. She was unaffected by the backlash but her two unborn twins were, both Zen and Kor were effect both mentality and physically. 

Mentality they saw the dawn of creation, Zen gain a total understanding of the the time  and they both gain the power to travel down any aspect of it. They have non-linear perception of time, which allows them to see everything that was, is, or could be at the same time. (Note: Only Nigh Omniscience) 

Physically they became transcendent beings. They became biologically immortal, with no need to eat or sleep or age. (See Transcendent Physiology)

They were threw into Untempered Schism, where they remained for a hundred thousand (100,000) years. They were displaced outside of Time Stream, where they didn't age, sleep or eat, just exist. Kor EL went insane becoming the Source of Anti-Time,while Zen EL got bored and regained his sanity, becoming the Source of the Time . They returned 10 second after the temporal backlash at the Time Institute on Colu-Bgtzl in their mother's womb.
