OK! I don't read that many comics from the DC line, but one of the story lines that I'm most excited about is New Krypton. The short version of the premise is that Superman finds the lost city of Kandor and brings it to the North Pole, next to his Fortress.
Now there are thousands of super powered Kryptonians inhabiting the Earth. One of the most intriguing elements of this story is the tension between the humans, who feel a sense of danger, and the Kryptonians who aren't necessarily to thrilled with the idea of following human laws.
So far the only official tie in issues that have come out as part of this arc are "The New Krypton
Special" and Superman #681.
Both of which were really awesome. I really think that this is one of DC's most ambitious stories simply because it does a whole perpetual back flip on the idea that Superman is the last son of Krypton. Which is an idea that has been the main basis of the Superman franchise for years.
With this idea flipped on it's head there is no telling where the Superman series will go.
That's the part I love the most, the fact that I have no idea how this story will end. Anyone who is a good Superman fan should definitely mess with this groundbreaking storyline.
