About the series
In 1999, Mark Waid and Barry Kitson crafted this single-issue DC special that explores the untold history of Krypton, expanding the world of The Kingdom with a deep dive into the planet's culture, politics, and its tragic final days. It matters as a thoughtful, character-driven prequel that enriches the Superman mythos by focusing on Kryptonian society rather than its most famous son.
