Superman, the Flash, Wonder Woman, and Cyborg are left absolutely impotent It's shocking It's depressing It's damn compelling As has often been the case with Priest's take on this book, it only gets worse from there too.

While it was nice seeing the Jolly Green Giant, the plot of this book is an impenetrable mess of characters, plot lines, and unanswered questions. Joe Bennett and Paco Medina's artwork gives the comic something worthwhile, but this book was massive letdown.

But that doesn't mean it isn't a good enough show on its own, because it does have promise. Fans of the current CW slew of DC Comics based shows may find this one right up their alley, but I will caution that Krypton seems to cater to a slightly more 'adult' audience, especially when paired with a TV-14[...]
