Am I the only one who perfers Superman to be the sole survivor of Krypton. Just wondering, it makes him more unique and more of a miracle in the universe. And the tragedy of Krypton worth something. If they must have a Supergirl I perfer they don't, it should be Kara In-Ze the only survivor from Krypton's sister planet Argos, from Superman: the animated series.

By the way welcome to the site. I'm new too. -

hey, what about Zod? should we write him off? or try the same runaround tactics they used post-crisis?
the uniqueness argument is valid, except I cannot wrap my head around the concept of a Krypton that does not use interstellar travel at all except for one lonely rogue scientist, it just feels illogical.
I'd rather the number of Krypton survivors remain unknown.Comment

I prefer Superman being the only survivor of Krypton - or at the very least, the Last Son. Zod could be the one exception, but I don't mind a new interpretation of him that would do him justice and yet change his origin so that he is not Kryptonian.Comment

Thanks for reponding to my post guys. As far as Zod goes I think DC could find a way to rework him that he still exist without him being Kryptonian.Comment

i can understand what you say as orginal comics and idea in the 30 and 40`s were that last son of kryptonian however as a fan of kara supergirl and i really thought lv really looked the part and see this its 50 years since action comic first introduced as female counterpart so there is agrement both ways. That being said having kara smallville esp flying while clark couldnt work even through i am huge supergirl fan itwasnt going to work on the show long term. I would have been happy if they used kara in two partner like if she been from the future while clark had been superman etc or have own show or special after.
If show or cartoon character is really sucesfull they will try a female counterpart out and supergirl has been more long lastly and succeful than most

well yeah, there are a few too many survivors for my liking... but then i think some storylines are interesting
for instance, for Clark to encounter people like Zod makes him so grateful he wasn't raised on Krypton with people like that, and makes him appreciate humans more i think
he is still unique because he is the only kryptonian to have been raised on earth, and it is the combination of his kryptonian body giving him powers and his parents giving him ethics that makes him the great hero... no other kryptonian has thatComment

I think the Pocket Universe was a great way to keep Superman being the only survivor, and still have a Kryptonian Zod. I think a working that way would be okay. I just don't like thousands to millions of other Kryptonians running around, and all being super.Comment

I would say keep Zod in because when Kyrpton exploded, wasn't he in Phantom zone? So that still makes Kal El hot.. uh I mean, the last son of Krypton and for me at least still unique. Just not all those other Kryptonians. I know they had other Kryptonian's on LnC. How did the comics handle that??
Does this question go to include the zoners or just survivors who were on Krypton when it exploded.Comment
-
It includes all Kryptonians period. And I just think it's best if Kal-El were the only survivor.
And really, what has Zod contributed other than being a villain Superman could go toe-to-toe with and etching, "Kneel before Zod" into media history?Comment

I do understand why DC Comics brought all the Kryptonians back. For the past 50 years, Kandor was inside the bottle. It was time to move on with that story. And they decided on a bold way, putting 100,000 Supermen from a striking position to Earth. How will Earth react from here? How does this fit on Final Crisis?Comment
