Good to know

When does Krypton take place?

The show takes place 200 years before Superman's birth on the planet Krypton.

Why watch Krypton at this point?

Originally planned as a Man of Steel prequel, Krypton ultimately takes place in its own universe. Canceled after 2 seasons, but a nice way to expand Superman's lore.
