What Happened To Everyone Who Joined The Superman Family?

2. Krypto The Superdog

Of course Krypto is here. Did you think your scribe would forget the biggest good boy in the DC Universe?

Krypto the Superdog has been a mainstay of the Superman universe since the Silver Age. Not necessarily since the very beginning, but long enough to become an inseparable part of Superman's cast. Even at its edgiest and faux-darkest, no writer can resist finding a way to put Krypto back in one way or another because he is just such a good boy, yes he is!

Krypto is a dog from Krypton, gifted to a baby Kal-El by his parents. If you're wondering how and why an alien planet can have dogs visually indistinguishable from Earth dogs, stop being a party pooper.

Krypto came to Earth shortly after Clark landed, where he became his most faithful animal companion.

Currently, Krypto is traveling through space with Supergirl, as she tries to find her own way in the universe, while Krypto follows along to keep her company.
