Summary

"One lone survivor of Krypton became the greatest hero in the universe--Superman. But before its destruction, the Man of Steel's birthplace was home to legions of heroes and heretics who molded their society into the technological wonderland it would become. Take a look into the time before there was a Superman and walk with his ancestors to uncover the tales of their lost civilization! From some of the industry's greatest creators come the life and times of Jor-El, father of Superman; the story of a forbidden love that would ignite a civil war and lead to the eventual destruction of the entire planet; and the Kryptonian legends that defined their history."--, Provided by publisher
