Notes
This issue is Red Shield Continuity #0, and went on sale one week late.
There is a conflict in two of the entries in this issue. This indexer pointed this out in a submission to the Ask Matt column on Superman Homepage published 2009-09-30: In "Superman: Secret Files 2009", Brainiac entry, it says that, after Kandor was stolen, "Days later, the planet Krypton was destroyed." In the Supergirl entry, after Kandor was stolen, it says "Within weeks, Jor-El declared the planet doomed...", and then "Krypton exploded weeks later." So which is it; days or weeks? Matt: Oops! My bad, Allen, you eagle-eyed fellow, you. It was indeed weeks after Brainiac's visit that Krypton went "boom," not days.
