    Kandor

    Location » Kandor appears in 390 issues.

    Originally the greatest city of Krypton, Kandor was shrunk by the intergalactic criminal Brainiac. After Superman defeated Brainiac, he took the bottle to the Fortress of Solitude for safe-keeping, hoping one day to restore it to full size. Meanwhile, thousands live out their lives in the confines of the bottle.

    Who shrunk Kandor?

    who is responsible for shrinking Kandor?

    after all the changes in the Superman timeline, who is currently responsible for the state of the bottle city?

    at one point i remember it being Tolos who shrank it... as is listed on the Kandor page...

    "The bottle city Kandor is home to thousands of beings believed to have been abducted by the alien wizard Tolos and imprisoned between dimensional planes."

    but then we have later issues of Superman stating that Brainiac is responsible, and this is listed on the Brainiac page...

    "Brainiac was the one who shrank the Kryptonian city of Kandor."

    can anyone give me a definite answer to this?

    lol, thanks...

    i really want to know about Kandor though...

    is Tolos still responsible for it, or have the DC writers retconned it to fit in with the DCUA shows and made Brainiac responsible?

    both pages cannot be right...

    I thought it was Brainiac, but that could have changed. You could put a note on the page saying that DC has said both did the deed.

    so in current continuity Brainiac is responsible, as in the cartoons?

    that makes a bit more sense...

    wonder what happened to Tolos...

    Kandor was the capital city of Krypton. It was shrunken by the wizard Tolos.

    thats what i thought...

    but recent comics state Brainiac was responsible for shrinking it...

    i was hoping someone had a definite answer to it, when it changed and so forth...

    I thought it was original believed that Brainiac had shrunken it, but later, during the "Trail of Superman." storyline, it was reveled that Tolos was the one who was truly responsible.

    In the pre - Crisis on Infinite Earths it was definitely Brainiac. In todays complicated DCU - it could have been someone else!

    In the recent novel, "Last Days of Krypton" it was Braniac. Decent book but they mess with the current Supergirl history.
