Notes

Krypto was created by Otto Binder and Curt Swan, first appearing in Adventure Comics #210. However, in the Prime Earth continuity, Krypto first appeared as part of the New 52 DC Universe in Action Comics (Volume 2) #3 by Grant Morrison, Rags Morales, and Gene Ha.

Krypto (Prime Earth) appears as Krypto (Prime) a playable character in the Infinite Crisis video game.

Notes

Brainiac\'s insistence that Jor-El is Krypton\'s leading scientific mind suggests that Brainiac selected Lex Luthor for the same purpose and reason in the previous issue.
