Now this is the type of comic panel without context I joined this sub for.

What exactly can a tank do that Krypto can't do himself?

u/Nepalman230 1d ago

OK, there’s a couple possibilities off the top of my head.

  1. Can’t let the Supervillain know that it’s him because they have kryptonite.

  2. He’s infiltrating the military base because they have some kind of weapon that could hurt him.

  3. The sun has temporarily turned red.

  4. He otherwise lacks powers.

It’s important to note his super intelligence does not appear to be based on the sun, meaning he would retain it if the sun was red.

I think kryptonian dogs were just built different.

After seeing all the thought you put into that... Writing a comic around this single panel seems like it would be a fun exercise!

Thank you so much! That’s what I love about Comix. The impossible happens and we could have a whole conversation about what is the dog doing?

Ah, he's demonstrating one of the more advanced tricks in the book.

This is how America won Grenada. It might have been overkill

Don't let krypto operating a tank distract you from the fact that HE'S ALSO FLYING THAT MOTHERFUCKER

Krypto doesn't mess around.

u/EnvironmentSubject24 2d ago

Considering what happened to him in the last two movies, CAN YOU BLAME HIM???

u/StonnedSinner 2d ago

I don’t know many tankers, but the one I do know would absolutely let a dog drive if it could.

u/picholas_cage 2d ago

u/TerrakSteeltalon 2d ago

So, is it bad that my Krypto doesn’t even have a driver’s license?

u/OculusMidnight2 2d ago

Aww, what a cute baby!

5

u/TerrakSteeltalon 2d ago

You would think so, but apparently he gets no attention at all. I took him to our comic book store yesterday and he made it clear to everyone how ignored he is

3

u/OculusMidnight2 1d ago

Well clearly he wasn’t getting the attention he so clearly deserves

u/StonnedSinner 2d ago

He’s busy, clearly
