Krypton is a utopia admired across the universe for its
achievements in science and culture, but its shining towers and
regal people conceal a planet rotting at its core. When a
catastrophic event befalls Krypton's natural world, it points
toward a mass extinction in the making. Jor-El, head of Krypton's
revered Science Council, embarks on a mission to save a world that
may already have passed the point of no return. As evidence of
Krypton's environmental precarity mounts, the ruling council fights
even harder to hide behind the myth of utopia. But a refusal to
confront the problem is truly a refusal to attempt a solution!
Shining new light on the famous characters of Krypton's
past-including Jor-El, General Dru-Zod, and even a young Kara
Zor-El-World of Krypton combines action, cosmic wonder, and
political intrigue in a story as much about our world as the one on
the page. Collects World of Krypton #1-6.

an important discovery: two new powerful half-bloods, whose
parentage is unknown. But that's not all that awaits them. The
Titan lord, Kronos, has set up his most devious trap yet, and the
young heroes have just fallen prey.

lost including Annabeth.

Mal's an expert at intimidating her enemies, but she's broken the habit since leaving her villainous roots behind. So when she and her friends Evie, Carlos, and Jay all receive threatening messages demanding they return home, Mal can't believe it. Sure, she's King Ben's girlfriend now, and she's usually nice to her classmates, but she still didn't think anyone would be silly enough to try to push her around.
The thing is, it kind of worked. Especially since she and her friends have a sneaking suspicion that their villainous parents are behind the messages. And when Evie looks into her Magic Mirror, what she sees only confirms their fears. Maleficent's just a tiny lizard after her run-in with Mal at Ben's Coronation, but she's the worst villain in the land for a reason. Could she have found a way to escape? Whatever's going on, Mal, Evie, Carlos, and Jay know they have to sneak back to the Isle and get to the bottom of it.
Without its infamous leader, the island's even worse than when they left it, but the comforts of home-even a home as gloomy as the Isle of the Lost-can be hard to resist for recently reformed villains. Will the kids be able to beat the evil bubbling at the Isle's wicked core, or will the plot to destroy Auradon succeed?
