A sharp man in a pressed suit and large frames sat behind witnesses Matthew Pottinger and Sarah Matthews. While this isn’t exactly breaking news, what did break the internet is the man’s likeness to Superman‘s alter ego, Clark Kent.

In case you missed it, here are some tweets recapping the moment viewers spotted the mystery man.

We’re not saying he looks EXACTLY like the Man of Steel. But he doesn’t NOT look like him either.

Clark Kent’s Identity is Uncovered

As many users put their best sleuthing skills to the test to find an undercover superhero, one journalist revealed they might have the answers. But he’s not interested in sharing them with the public. He is, however, reportedly not single.

TMZ later revealed the young man’s identity as 23-year-old Alex Wollet, a medical school student from Ohio. Wollet is currently living in Washington, D.C. and working on completing a fellowship at the National Institutes of Health.
