This Just In: The Fate of Krypto Revealed in ACTION COMICS #13 [Spoilers]

We've seen glimpses of the Superdog but now we'll see what is to come of the last dog of Krypton.

There are many that love spoilers. I'm not a big fan of them myself but there are times when they can be hard to resist. Once again our mysterious benefactor sent an image from today's ACTION COMICS #13. I'm hesitant to post but this may not be a huge spoiler.

In ACTION COMICS, we've seen Krypto a few times. Actually, he's appeared in issues 3 and 5 and issue 3 mentioned of a "ghost dog" watching over Clark. Issue 5 showed Krypto's attempt to save Superman and his parents by jumping into the Phantom Zone. The solicit of issue 13 mentions the return of Krypto. But will it be a return that will make readers happy?

Here's an image from today's issue.

It appears that Krypto will be emerging somehow from the Phantom Zone. Unfortunately he doesn't look too good. Would Grant Morrison and DC label this as "the return of Krypto" only for us to see him perish? They did decide to kill of Ma and Pa Kent after all. Superman is supposed to feel alone and isolated, which lead to the kiss with Wonder Woman in JUSTICE LEAGUE #12.

You can bet I'll be reading this issue as soon as I get back from the comic shop today. Will Krypto survive? Is there a place for a Superdog in the New 52?
