The Phantom Zone was used by Kryptonians to send many criminals to their imprisonment. Unfortunately, their banishment saved them once Krypton was destroyed. I'm wondering why at least a few Kryptonians didn't take advantage of the Phantom Zone to avoid death? If the choice was between hanging out with criminals or death, I'd take the criminals.

The Phantom Zone was used that way in Smallville.
I'm pretty sure that not a lot of people had access to a Phantom Zone projector...that would be like everyone having keys to a jail

It still should have been an evacuation plan.

Yeah for an advanced civilization they sure did pick a whole bouquet of oopsy daisys. I mean we are primitive in our evolution and we know about a comet that's going to hit earth like 14,000 years from now, we're just not worried atm.
Maybe they did know, but they forgot.

Forgot? lol
" @ComicMan24 said:Non and Jor-El tried to warn them but the Council wasn't listening to them. They captured Non and stripped him of his intelligence and and let Jor-El since he said that he will stop researching even though he secretly continued. So they were unprepared when the destruction started except for Jor-El." @danhimself said:Yeah for an advanced civilization they sure did pick a whole bouquet of oopsy daisys.
