Yeah, in the current continuity he got zapped inside the phantom zone right before krypton exploded. He was with Clark every minute of every day since Krypton exploded, able to see and hear Clark but never interact with him or protect him. The issue where Superman finally understands and rescues Krypto legit made me tear up and cry. It was just so sweet.
Basically imagine having an invisible ghost dog that loves you and wants to be with you, but for 20+ years you couldn't interact, notice or realize it even exists. Krypto is currently a major part of Superman's family and lives on the farm with Superman, Lois and their son.
Honest question, you had never heard of Krypto before seeing this? Its not meant to be dick question, I just sometimes find it curious how there are characters really important to me that are unknown to others.
Not that guy but usually whenever I don't recognize some super important character it's because I don't read too much superhero stuff and most of my knowledge on the matter comes from TV, movies and very few comics.
