Host Anthony Desiato closes the final gap in his modern-era Superman reading with a two-part discussion of the "New Krypton" saga, which played out across more than 100 issues from 2008-2010.

In Part 1, Anthony and guest Tyler Patrick (KRYPTON REPORT) dig into the initial "New Krypton" and "World Without Superman" chapters of the sweeping saga:

• SUPERMAN #681-690 by James Robinson & Renato Guedes;
• ACTION COMICS #871-879 by Geoff Johns & Pete Woods, followed by Greg Rucka;
• SUPERGIRL #35-43 by Sterling Gates & Jamal Igle; and
• SUPERMAN: WORLD OF NEW KRYPTON by Rucka, Robinson, & Woods

This episode also considers the "Last Son" (Johns & Adam Kubert) and "Braniac" (Johns & Gary Frank) arcs that paved the way for "New Krypton."
