Bizarro-Krypto

Bizarro-Krypto is an imperfect, backwards duplicate of Superman's super-dog Krypto, inhabiting the Bizarro World — a cube-shaped planet populated by flawed, reverse versions of Superman and his allies.

Few corners of the Silver Age are as wonderfully strange as the Bizarro World, and Bizarro-Krypto is one of its most charming residents — an imperfect, backwards reflection of Superman's beloved super-dog who first bounded onto the scene in Action Comics #276 back in 1961, courtesy of Robert Bernstein and Wayne Boring. Born from that gloriously offbeat DC tradition of taking the Man of Steel's world and twisting it delightfully askew, this peculiar pup has shared pages with Superman, Superboy, Bizarro himself, and other icons of the era across the classic runs of Adventure Comics and Superboy. Appearances are rare — only eight in the catalog, with one recognized as a key issue — which makes Bizarro-Krypto a genuine curiosity for collectors who love the weird, wonderful fringes of DC's Silver Age mythology. If you have a soft spot for the oddball imagination that made that era so unforgettable, this imperfect canine is absolutely worth tracking down.
