Anyone reading this? It's awesome so far. I picked up Action Comics issue #871 yesterday (part 4 of the story) but I haven't read it yet. It's running through all the Superman titles. Superman, Action Comics and Supergirl. Plus a couple of 'One-Shots'. The story (in a nutshell): Superman has finally  returned the 'Shrunken City of Kandor' to it's rightful size. Sounds good right? One small problem though, there are now about 100,000 Kryptonians on Earth including some of Zods soldiers. All with Supermans power. And these guys don't all look and feel the same way Superman does about the Earth or it's inhabitants.

Something I noticed though, Kandor is a Kryptonian city. So the city was/is built on Kryptonian land. So wouldn't the land that all the Kandorian buildings and other structures are built on now be 'Kryptonite' since it's now on Earth? There's been no mention of this and I wonder if that will play a role in the conclusion of this story.

All the stories I've ever read has ever shown the city of kandor to be made of krytonite. I used to assume that kryptonite was like uranium on earth. It exists but it's not just found easily in the dirt everywhere.

I always thought it was radiation that turned Kryptonian crystal into Kryptonite myself. No radiation=no Kryptonite.

I always thought kryptonite created it's own radiation.

Quote:
In Superman: The Movie, Lex Luthor describes Superman's enhanced Kryptonian physiology as being vulnerable to kryptonite's particular radioactive "signature". More recently, some issues of Superman indicate the mechanism by which green kryptonite may hurt Superman. Superman's |cells absorb electromagnetic radiation from stars (like Earth's sun). Kryptonite's radioactivity interferes with this semi-photosynthetic process, driving the energy out of his cells in a painful fashion.


Quote:
Long-term exposure to kryptonite is said to have the same effects on human beings as exposure to other radioactive materials; an extended storyline in the comics around 1990 involved Lex Luthor developing cancer from the kryptonite ring he kept on his finger.

I don't know if that answers the question for sure or not.
