Now most of you are probably familar with Superman. But as we all know, he was far from the sole survivor of Krypton.

I am familiar with Superdog, Supergirl, and Superboy, not to mention those people from the Phantom Zone.

Are there any others that anyone knows of?

There is also more than one Superman. In a comic that will be out soon, we will actually see Superman fight Superman! :eek:

Kinda-sorta.

When the universes were merged into one, certain heroes from the previous reality survived in a pocket dimension. Among them was the Original Superman. Well, apparently, he is not too thrilled with the way things are proceeding in the current reality and is collaborating on a plot to replace the current universe with his former universe. *nod*

I suppose they have to get around the fact that they can't have the evil Ultraman turn up from Earth 3 anymore somehow...

bizzaro superman is not a survivor of krypton, he is a creation of science.

Mon-El is not actually a Kryptonian either, he is an alien from a world similar to Krypton, causing him to hae similar powers.

super, but not kryptonian. magic.

I think it was Supergirl's pet, so I'd imagine it was.

How about whoever the writers decide needs to come from Krypton in order to provide a challenge to Superman?

The problem with making Superman so powerful is finding something to actually challenge him.

Oh well, it's no biggie as he's still a dick (http://www.superdickery.com/)

This cover might help you:

The dog's named Krypto
The cat's named Streaky
And even though it has Super-Horse and Super-Monkey on above cover, apparently they actually named Comet and Beppo, respectively.

Comet was actually a centaur turned into a horse by Circe. Memory fails me but somehow he picked up superpowers from the transition. There was also the floating city of Argo although that had it's own explosion later on. Still I seem to recall that Supergirl's parents and a few other strays survived even that breakup. @_@

the bottle city of Kandor, whom Superman transported to a habitable planet and returned to normal size.

Technically, Kara (Supergirl) died in Crisis on Infinate Earths. and Superboy is a clone. Powergirl was once said to be the daughter of Superman and Lois Lane (from an alternate Earth)

then there's the Supermen of different earths. including Ultraman of Earth 3

if you include Dark Night Returns, there is the Daughter of Superman and Wonder Woman.

"Please?"

It wouldn't be much of a magic word if everyone who said please got magical powers >.>

Besides, i've tried that one already. Don't anyone who's seen superted try to tell me they didn't try to find out the secret magic word, lest be damned as a liar.

Superman, Batman, Power Girl and Katana were in Japan,
Katana: "but the kid wants to see you two."
Batman: "He's a thirteen year old boy, find a way to distract him."
