“I Fought the Champion from Outer Space!”

In "I Fought the Champion from Outer Space!", Krypto returns to Metropolis after years adrift in space, now old and frail. Though Superman lets Jimmy keep him as a pet, Krypto’s age-related mishaps spark concern, leading the City Council to label him a menace. Forced to act, Superman uses a mix of kryptonite and mineral waters to rejuvenate his aging dog. Written by Otto Binder and illustrated by Curt Swan with inks by Ray Burnley, the cover by Bob Brown captures the moment of Krypto’s transformation.

Krypto turns up in Metropolis after years in space but is now in his old age.

Superman is forced to take him away, but rejuvenates Krypto with a combination of kryptonite and mineral waters.
