[Superman] What would have happened if baby Kal-El had landed but was never found by anyone? I'm assuming for this discussion that he had his powers from the moment he landed.

If we assume a fully powered baby Kal-El, he probably wouldn't die of exposure to whatever environment he lands in. Even Kansas can have nasty weather during summer and winter, but they'd be nothing to Superman. However, we do know he needs to eat and babies need to eat a lot very frequently to grow their brains and bodies. 

So he'd probably die of starvation if absolutely nobody found him. 

Not saying a feral Kal-El is impossible, but it just doesn't seem right or palatable to think about a baby sitting immobile for however many months it took for them to leave the ship/pod/whatever either through nature or him crawling away.
