Superman: Last Stand of New Krypton #2
In "Last Stand of New Krypton, Part Six: Divided, Conquerable," James Robinson and Sterling Gates deliver a pivotal chapter as Luthor’s gambit to destroy Brainiac’s ship backfires in unexpected ways. With Pete Woods’ dynamic art and Blond’s vivid colors, the tension escalates as Superman steps in to stop Zod from finishing off a weakened Brainiac—only for Zod to turn on Earth, citing Luthor’s role in the attack as justification for war. David Finch and Joe Weems’ cover captures the moment’s gravity, framing the stakes with sharp, dramatic flair.
In the final clash on New Krypton, Superman is unexpectedly rescued by an old ally as chaos unfolds across Brainiac’s ship. Separated from the Legion of Super-Heroes, Superboy finds himself face to face with Lex Luthor, who strips him of his powers and imprisons him within the re-bottled city of Kandor, while General Zod prepares to strike—his next move shaped by long-held enmity toward Conner Kent.
In the final act of the Last Stand of New Krypton, Supergirl and Brainiac 5 race against time to disable the core of Brainiac’s ship, while Zod’s forces grapple with the chaos of the Revenge Squad and Lex Luthor’s hidden agenda unfolds. With General Zod, Ursa, Non, and even a fleeting glimpse of Superboy and Superman caught in the storm, the fate of New Krypton hangs in the balance.
In the final clash aboard Brainiac’s ship, Superman, Zod, and the Legion fight to reclaim New Krypton’s fate as Supergirl and Brainiac 5 work to restore Kandor. With Mon-El freed and seeking to save more bottled cities, he calls on Projectra to return his costume to its original form—just as Lex Luthor’s hidden presence threatens to upend everything.
In the final clash of the Last Stand of New Krypton, Superman stands between Zod’s fury and a broken Brainiac, while the Legion scrambles to save what remains of the bottled cities. As Luthor’s gambit unravels and the truth of his alliance with Brainiac surfaces, the fragile peace shatters—Zod, wounded and betrayed, turns his wrath toward Earth, and the fate of both worlds hangs in the balance.
In the aftermath of New Krypton’s fall, the Legion of Super-Heroes and Mon-El rally around Chameleon Boy as he seeks a new future for his people. With Brainiac 5 handing over the original Brainiac to Coluan authorities, the team turns its focus to helping Chameleon Boy rebuild—offering sanctuary, hope, and the promise of a tomorrow worth fighting for.
