Superman: New Krypton is an eleven-volume crossover event that ran from 2008 to 2011. The storyline begins when the bottled Kryptonian city of Kandor is restored to full size, introducing thousands of superpowered Kryptonians to Earth. The political and military consequences drive the entire event.
Rucka was one of the key writers during this era of Superman, helping to navigate a storyline that changed the status quo significantly. The New Krypton saga dealt with themes of immigration, nationalism, and coexistence, giving the superhero genre real-world resonance.
