One theory is that he's Superboy back from the "dead"
Another is that he's Captain Atom - not getting any respect in the old clothes/name?... get a new identity!
Or Lex Luthor - Why give everyone else superpowers and not yourself? what would be better for Lex than "out-heroing" Superman?
(ok... those last two were mine ... )
Obviously, he could be someone completely new.... or the Eradicator (Or anyone) in a different outfit.
The fact that he wears a full face mask seems to lead to the idea that he's a known character (why are there so few "full face mask" good-guy characters?... especially in DC )

Someone talking to him recently, was it Wonder Girl? Was talking to him and when he flew away she sais "Kon." as if she knew exactly who it was.
Captain Atom is already accounted for post Crisis, Battle for Bludhaven he became Monarch, as was originally intended over a decade ago.
Eradicator? No. He would be in Kryptonian garb, definately. It's his job to preserve Kryptonian Heritage. He wouldn't be running around in hiding- he's too forward for that.

Yeah it was Wondergirl that thought it was him, however, one year later in the Teen Titans series Robin and WW are sill morning Superboy. So I highly doubt it's him.
Maybe it's Kal-L. If anybody reads Action Comics the Auctioneer came to Earth to steal some of Earth artifacts and sell them to cosmic bidders he scanned Earth and said there was not two but three Krytonians on Earth. Superman was surprised, he thought there was on him and Supergirl.
I am guessing this Supernova guy is a Kryptonian.

In JSA when Dr.Mid-nite she did scans and she showed she was kryptonian, but then later it didn't and then later showed she was Kryptonian.
Yeah I doubt they were including Power Girl, but does Earth 1 Superman know Powergirl's orgins anyways? as she hung around Earth 2 Superman when she found out and then was captured by Alex. I don't think they talked about it yet.
I guess I don't know if Superman knows Power-Girl is a Krytonian from E-2. Does she have the K-nite weakness. Superboy Prime did not cause he was from the Mulitiverse also.

I don't think he does, but I do believe your right that the third Kryptonian is someone else. Yeah she did, and then didn't, and then did, and didn't...it worked sometines and other times it didn't. Superman E-2 was immune to E-1 krpyonite as shown when Batman pulled it out on him.
Power Girl is the result of Earth 2 Supergirl getting caught in the new universe, and the universe trying to correct itself around her, to give her a past, but is unable to. [While in reality, it's because every writer has written her with a different past to try to reinvent the character in a way that it will attract readers.]
