Krypton blew up decades ago. We all know that. Superman was sent, as a baby, from a doomed planet to Earth.

Turns out it might not have been quite as doomed as we thought.

In October, DC Comics are starting a Krypton Returns story with Action Comics Annual.

On sale OCTOBER 30 • 48 pg, FC, $4.99 US • RATED T

Part 1 of "KRYPTON RETURNS," continuing next month! What does this mean to the Universe? Superman, Supergirl and Superboy are enlisted by the Oracle to go back to their homeworld and correct what the villainous H'El has done! This epic adventure spans eons, from Krypton's savage past of Clones to the very minutes before Kal-El's ship is sent into space! You only think you know what happened in the last days of Krypton!

Don't be fooled by references to time travel folks, this is all set up for the genuine return of Krypton. Somehow. Am I getting flashbacks to For The Man Who Has Everything?

Here's Scott's other annual solicitation for October…

Leading into next month's landmark issue #25, the Teen Titans continue their trip through time as the team must confront Jon Lane Kent, the Superboy of the future, who could one day wipe out the most powerful heroes on Earth. Can the Titan's Superboy defeat the man he was cloned from by Harvest?
