When Kal-El started out, seventy-some years ago, we all know he was at a much lower power level. He couldn't fly, he could only leap really far; he may have been faster than a speeding bullet, but there was no interplanetary travel or breaking the light barrier; he was more powerful than a locomotive, not strong enough to casually move Earth out of its orbit.
But as time went on, various creators couldn't resist bumping him up on the power scale, giving him more and more powers, increasing his strength to fantasy levels. His "invulnerability" became such that he didn't need to eat, or breathe, or sleep; nothing could hurt him except magic and kryptonite, he could fly into the freakin' sun:
