Really thought I'd be bored by the Superman origin by now, but damn, that whole opening sequence is awe-inspiring. The failed Phantom Zone escape, the explanation of the rocket being a miniature prototype... Everything binds together so damn well.

Yup, though Jor-El was a little off about that, his FIRST prototype was the one Krypto was sent up in, which was damaged Krypton orbit and went missing.

The second test model was the one Kal was sent up in.

Wait, Jor-El used Krypto, his family's dog, as a test pilot?!? For some reason, I always thought that Krypto was with Kal-El on the rocket ship that managed to escape. I might need to re-check me comic books history from now on.

Krypto's Pre Crisis origin is outlined here

The same origin was used for the Krypto animated series (which also includes one of my all time fabvou

An episode which features one of my all time favourite Superman scenes

Thanks for the clarification on Krypto's origin.

Just checked that video and my heart melted with joy seeing Krypto as a puppy. His animated series was pretty cool.

By the way, it seems the third link isn't working, at least on the way it was posted, amigo.

Really? Works for me, I added a time tag to the you8tube link so it took you to the relevant scene in the clip.

Oh, and yes Krypto is an under-rated series IMHO. Of course, this episode would have convinced me if the rest of it hadn't.already! :)

Ahh, Bat-Hound and Robbie the Robin, such a magnificent way to show the Dynamic Duo on the world of animals. Thanks for the trip down memory lane, Icon_UK, it put a smile on me face.

Oops, my mistake

This is how the third link SHOULD work!
