Krypto #178: Post-Infinite Crisis Superboy's Dog

From: Superman: Secret Origin #2, 4 (December 2009, March 2010)

In his post-Infinite Crisis origin, Superman once again started out as Superboy and joined the Legion of Super-Heroes. There. Was that so hard?! But the picture isn't complete until a Kryptonian pod just like his falls from the sky. Is it another baby? No, it's Krypto!
His arrival was foreshadowed earlier in Secret Origin #2, when we saw THIS mascot in the 30th Century:
Is Krypto the symbol for some franchise? Just a cooky millionaire's fancy? What's it doing there? We will never know. Alas.

Krypto finally appears in the flesh in issue #4, as the family dog when Clark leaves home for Metropolis.
Whimper.
