Editing Krypton (comics) (section)

===Television===
====Live-action====
* Krypton appears in the pilot episode of ''[[Adventures of Superman (TV series)|Adventures of Superman]]''. In this version, Jor-El proposes transporting the entire Kryptonian population to Earth via a fleet of rockets, but his proposal is rejected and the planet begins to break apart sooner than he expected anyway, leaving him only with a small test rocket, in which he and Lara use to launch Kal-El off.
* Krypton appears in ''[[Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman]]''. At the end of the third season, it is revealed that a sizable colony survived the planet's destruction. From what was shown of the colony (called New Krypton), the society, despite the advanced technology, had numerous archaic elements, like hereditary rule, [[arranged marriage]] for nobles, and [[trial by combat]] being legal for nobility. Unlike many incarnations, New Krypton is not isolated from other races; it has starships, including a large vessel that serves as its palace, and Nor hires an assassin from another race to kill Kal-El.
* The television series ''[[Smallville]]'' presents a version of Krypton that mirrors the ''Superman: The Movie'' aesthetic but has more ties to Earth. It was a peaceful and advanced planet until civil war broke out, leading to its destruction in 1986 by General Zod and the renegade [[Zor-El]] after they used Brainiac to ignite Krypton's unstable core. Numerous Kryptonian artifacts come into play during the show, such as the "Stones of Power" in season 4 (used to contain all information in the known 28 galaxies and become the Crystal of Knowledge to make the Fortress of Solitude), "The Orb" in season 8 (containing the DNA of fallen Kryptonian citizens/soldiers scanned and cloned by Jor-El), and its [[bible]] ''The Book of Rao'' (used to transport Kryptonians to "Heaven") during season 9. In season 2, more Kryptonian glyphs appear on Earth via the Kawatche Caves as there are prophecies discovered about a "[[Clark Kent (Smallville)|Traveler]]" planted by Jor-El visiting [[Smallville (comics)|Smallville]].
* Krypton is featured in the [[Arrowverse]] ''[[Supergirl (TV series)|Supergirl]]'' series, with its destruction depicted in the pilot. Kara was sent to Earth to protect her then-infant cousin, Kal-El. Krypton exploded just seconds after her pod took off, sending it into the Phantom Zone. The episode "[[Hostile Takeover (Supergirl)|Hostile Takeover]]" revealed that the planet was destroyed due to over-mining its core. The third-season episode "Dark Side of the Moon" revealed that Argo City was preserved along with many of the inhabitants on an asteroid formed from Kryptonian debris.
* Krypton is the main setting of the [[Krypton (TV series)|titular series of the same name]].<ref>{{cite news|last1=Johnston|first1=Rich|title=Man Of Steel Writer David Goyer, Attached To New TV Show.

Due to its decadent lifestyle of some Kryptonians, this causes a social inequality and those who are not in the guilds become Rankless. When Seg discovers that Voice of Rao is a puppet controlled by Brainiac, he forms a resistance movement of several friends and allies, including his son from the future, General Zod. After trapping Brainiac and Seg in the Phantom Zone, Zod takes power in Krypton, forcing all Rankless to become Sagitari soldiers and cutting some guilds, such as Religious and Lawmaker. In the second season, Seg returns to Krypton and gathers some of the surviving allies in order to stop Zod's murderous conquest. Zod also sends Sagitari and Doomsday weapon on the moon Wegthor to crush the rebels. After the moon is destroyed, Seg and almost all the rebels return to Krypton. When Seg and Lyta expose Zod's treachery, Zod tries to kill them, but is defeated and Sagitari forces are defeated by the resistance, ending a civil war on Krypton.

====Animation====
* Krypton was briefly depicted in the first [[Fleischer Studios]]-produced ''Superman'' cartoon in the early 1940s as "a planet that burned like a green star in the distant heavens [and where] civilization was far advanced and it brought forth a race of Supermen whose mental and physical powers were developed to the absolute peak of human perfection", implying that all Kryptonians had Superman's abilities even on their own planet. The planet is seen only from a distance, just before its explosion.
* Depictions of Krypton appear on both [[The New Adventures of Superman (TV series)|''The New Adventures of Superman'']] and ''[[Super Friends]]''; in one of the "lost episodes" of ''Super Friends'' season of 1983–1984), "The Krypton Syndrome", Jor-El says that Krypton will be enveloped by their sun and explode a short time later.
* In the ''[[Superman: The Animated Series]]'' three-part premiere episode, "The Last Son of Krypton", Krypton's climate is shown to have both temperate and [[Arctic]] conditions. According to commentary on the [[DVD]] collection of the show's first season, part of Krypton's appearance was influenced by the art style of [[Jack Kirby]].
** In this version, Krypton was destroyed by its core destabilizing, with [[Brainiac (character)|Brainiac]] choosing to save himself by transferring his consciousness into a satellite rather than save Krypton's people. The rest of Kryptonian civilization (save for Jor-El and his family) remained unaware of the danger until it was too late to evacuate.
** Krypton had a "sister planet" named '''Argo''' (named after Argo City), colonized by Kryptonians many centuries before the destruction of Krypton. Krypton's destruction pushed Argo out of orbit, causing it to gradually cool. Its people went into [[Cryonics|cryostasis]] to survive, but their pods malfunctioned and shut down over time, leaving [[Supergirl (Kara Zor-El)|Supergirl]] the only survivor.
* Krypton appears in the [[Legion of Super Heroes (TV series)|''Legion of Super Heroes'']] episode "Message in a Bottle". In this version, Jor-El found a way to save the planet with his creation, the Messenger, which was kept in Kandor. Therefore, when Brainiac shrunk and stole the city, the planet's destruction was assured. At the end of the episode, the Legion use the Messenger to restore Krypton, and Kandor is restored to full size so its people can begin life anew.
* Krypton appears in the ''[[DC Super Hero Girls (TV series)|DC Super Hero Girls]]'' episode "#DCSuperHeroBoys". In a flashback, Alura Zor-El tells Zod that Krypton is collapsing on itself. She uses a device to send Zod and his minions Ursa and Non to the [[Phantom Zone]], then tells Kara that she is sending her to join her cousin Kal.
* Krypton appears in ''[[My Adventures with Superman]]''. In this version, Kryptonians lead an interstellar expansionist empire until they encountered a superior opponent, resulting in the planet's destruction and the Kryptonian race's extinction with the exception of two; the children of House El, Kal-El and Kara Zor-El, who were sent away by their respective fathers in order to escape the malevolent entity's genocide. Brainiac then used derelict Kryptonian warships and technology and manipulated it with the intention of starting a campaign of conquest and revealed that he was responsible for destroying the planet to avoid being decommissioned after Jor-El began peace talks with the unnamed enemy.
