====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 1983β1984), "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.
