Ron Troupe

Ron Troupe is a journalist at the Daily Planet in Metropolis, working alongside Clark Kent, Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen, and Perry White while covering the city where Superman operates.

Ron Troupe stepped onto the scene in 1993, born from the creative partnership of Jerry Ordway and Tom Grummett in what became a collector-significant debut issue — a meaningful introduction during one of Superman's most storied eras. A fixture of the Daily Planet's orbit, Ron keeps some of comics' most iconic company: Clark Kent, Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen, Perry White, and Superman himself fill the pages around him across Adventures of Superman, Superman, and Supergirl. Over a 22-year publishing history, he's a grounded, human presence woven into the fabric of Metropolis, the kind of character who reminds you that even in a city of legends, the people behind the bylines matter. For fans who love the rich supporting tapestry of the Superman corner of the DC Universe, Ron Troupe is a name worth knowing.
