Unsurprising: Absolute Kryptonite hurts like hell
Six years ago, my homeworld tried to kill me. Through a miracle, I survived. Now it's trying again. Radioactive slivers of my home planet, forged into bullets. Tearing me apart from the inside. Krypton is the gift that keeps on killing. Veins pumping lava. Mouth full of ash. Screams from inside my own innards. Billions upon billions. Krypton is dying all over again. In me. I hear mother's voice from far away. Smell father coming home from work, swirling with the dust of the mine. Dog wants me to chase him through the purple fields. If I die, the last vestige of my home dies with me. That's what this bullet is trying to kill. So I fight to do what I failed to do before. I fight to save Krypton. And this time… I do not fight alone.
