This era featured a return to many Silver Age elements including Supergirl and Krypto, the Superdog. Perhaps most notable in the return of the bottled Kryptonian city of Kandor, held captive by Brainiac. When the shrunken city is returned to proper size in the arctic circle, the Earth is suddenly flooded with hundreds of similarly powered people in the crossover event, Reign of the Supermen.
Paul Cornell's run on Action Comics is particularly notable as it feature Lex Luthor in the starring role and possessing an orange power ring, representing greed. |
