This crossed my mind last night. Do we know the people of Kandor are dead?

And even if current continuity rules this out.....do we really think that matters right now, between DC's overall mess and Bendis writing?
It seems like a pretty viable option to me, the more I think about it. Clark gets a win down the road when he finds out some Kandorians survived. It puts Kandor (the people if nothing else) back in play, thus returning us to the basic status quo. Plus if leaves you with a few fun problems; the Kryptonians survived leaving the bottle, but are still small. But now that they know they can survive outside.....what do you do with them? Do you build a new bottle? Do you build a tiny colony on Mars for them? How does that play out? These are just regular people, their size makes them even more dangerous than Clark, and they've been held prisoner by Brainiac for decades. How well are they going to adjust to being free?
Plus; tiny Supermen shooting out of Clark's sleeves (fingers). Gotta say, that's a hell of a call-out if Bendis does it."We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another, as if we were one single tribe."

Why could they never leave the bottle?
And why can't they make them big again?

Depends on the version of Kandor. The one that Bendis seems to be using is the most classic version complete with Superman's cousin (Van-Zee). In this version they can all physically leave the bottle, but they'll still be small. Most of the Kandorians would rather stay under a red sun and live as they did on Krypton, and that's what the bottle provides. Originally Posted by stephens2177

At the very best all Superman could do back in the Silver age was resize them for a few hours before the effects set back in.And why can't they make them big again?"Mark my words!

Bendis' latest Tuesday takeover of the DC Instagram has kicked off with him looking back on some early Adam Hughes artwork, as Hughes will be handing the art on Man of Steel#5

Okay, a couple hours in and he's only posted past Adam Hughes work, so there better be some gangbusters material to tie this off.
Buh-bye

Damn. Bendis posted the pencils for another Reis cover for MOS #6. Sillouette of Jon bathed in some light/energy staring at Clark . This could be the aged version.

Just to be nitpicky... the cover is for issue 6 of Superman not MoS. Originally Posted by Sacred Knight

OH! That makes a hell of a lot more sense.

Excited to see Jon as a teenager/young adult, just really hope he won't be a villain. I won't mind if some of the optimism he has a kid is gone, but I' rather him still be good at his core.

If he’s from the Batman 666 future, I doubt he has any optimism left in him. Interested to see where this is leading.

So we have approximately six months to wait for advancements in Jon's story..half-way through the year-long story. This could be end up being quicker than I thought.
Wonder if this is Jon coming in from the future to put his dad's worries to rest...possibly his mothers' too, that is, if Lois is available.
