Notes
- "The Man Who Destroyed Krypton!" was reprinted in Superman: Tales from the Phantom Zone.
- Superman notes that he cannot be destroyed by antimatter and survives the explosion of the antimatter dart-bomb. However, the narrations questions if Superman has misjudged the bomb's destructive potential, and the blast once it goes off nearly kills Superman.
- General Zod is the next villain to swear an oath on the Colossus of Hadrad in Action Comics #548.
