Non-meme answer coming your way, shamelessly copypasted from an old thread.
>In the case of Superman and other kryptonians, it's graviton manipulation, which allows them to change their mass and essentially "throw themselves forward". They manipulate these gravitons by use of their floatorials, specially adapted muscles. This is why Superman when he's not holding back and Power Girl are both much faster than Supergirl: Supergirl's youth and relative lack of exercise means her floatorials are much smaller than either of theirs; however floatorial size and flight speed do not necessarily correlate all the time: note that Power Girl's massive floatorials nonetheless do not give her a significant speed advantage over Superman.

Also,
>massive floatorials
Is that what we're calling them now?

He just lunges forward and his massive dick propels him through the air.

He's not flying. He's falling with style.

He applies a massive invisible force of over 50,000 Newtons toward the ground that propels him upward. On the downside, anyone caught underneath his flight path will get crushed to death.
>>
Lex Luthor theorized that he has a special, Kryptonian gland or organ that helps him maintain flight. Evolution/alien shit would be the appropriate answer.

In earlier incarnations, Supes just jumped really high.

How is the crab from The Little Mermaid able to talk and think like a human?

He has a human-like brain to think human thoughts and human-like mouth to speak human words.

As with all Comic Book Physic questions, it depends on whom is writing the particular textbook that's being used to teach the lesson.
