I've been watching through the Syfy Krypton series recently and I've gotta say, how is there no clean images for the different house symbols online!?!?!

Like, genuinely why can't I find any, it's baffling

All I want is a clean image of the House of Vex symbol, is that too much to ask?

Krypton Season 2

[ashen-hands]

Y'all, i just read what we could have gotten had Krypton not been cancelled and i think I'm going to have a breakdown.

Nyssa's storyline especially looks so so cool and I'm so mad and sad that we're not getting to see it on screen. I miss Wallis as Nyssa so so bad. She really was my favourite part of the show. Cameron as Seg really made me love him. I loved the magic these two brought to me.

And the fact that we were getting an insight into Krypton and it's culture on screen like we never had and they cancelled it when it had so much left to offer— I'm bitter. The show had writers and actors who cared so much about telling the stories of these characters and telling them the right way, it breaks my heart for them as well. They deserved better. Unlike many shows all people involved in this show were so passionate about the stories they were telling, it was so refreshing to see. I'm just— sad and disappointed.

Anyways, read about the storyline they were planning to explore here:

DCTV’s House of El

[windona]

for prompting night: Seg El gets to meet Jon and Jordan Kent.

Those who were in Kandor had been frozen in place for an eternity.

There was little way to measure time, not when everyone was kept in place and unable to even blink. Seg had the fortune- or misfortune- of having glanced up at the dome as stillness fell. The towers of Kandor looked exactly the same, as did the hair of one person tall enough to remain in Seg's field of vision. Others were distantly in it, but unable to turn his head or focus his eyes more they had remained blurs.

The one way Seg had known time was passing was from the uncomfortable feeling of another presence rifling through his mind. Brainiac occasionally made some musings, and asked some questions to see how Seg's thoughts reacted. Mostly, it was as if spindly fingers had slithered into his brain and poked around before withdrawing. Physical pain could not match the anguish of being utterly helpless to such intrusion. The only warning he sometimes had was of the hazy image of Brainiac himself beyond the dome.

One day, other images flickered beyond it.

There was a man in a suit with features blurred, fighting at a speed and strength any Sagatari would envy. Then Kandor jolted. A wave of light passed over the city, and the outside blurred.

Seg instinctively moved his eyes, then his head, to keep track of where they were going. Then he realized what he had done.

"We're free!" a voice exclaimed. Turning around, everyone hugged the person nearest to them. There was laughter as people wept.

Seg grinned, searching over everyone before heading to the area the High Council would be. He had hoped Nyssa and Lyta had made it out, but if he hadn't he knew they would be trying to get control of the situation. It had taken longer than he expected with everyone hugging each other and asking each other where friends, relatives, and acquaintances were. Sagatari were trying to set up stations for people to ask, but were whispering into their communicators and asking as well.

As he made it to the High Council chamber, he saw a familiar face. "Dev Em."

"Seg El. There you are. Primus Zod is waiting, there's a message for you." Not even military posture and the gun at Dev's side could harshen the delight in Dev's smile.

A message! Seg practically ran to the communication station.

Jayna stood there, and rose her head at his arrival. Her eyes were pinched and worn.

"Well, I can see how delighted you are." Seg walked over and grinned. "I think that today's celebrations will outshine any Nova Cycle."

"For now." Jayna gestured to a hologram viewing area. "Seg, it was one of your relatives who saved us from that monster."

Frowning, Seg walked over to the controls. Hovering his finger over it, he said, "Jayna, you know how many relatives I have."

"How many you had. I'm afraid we were in stasis for quite some time."

Cocking an eyebrow, Seg accepted the call to see a hologram with a man and two boys. The man had the features of an El, wore the colors of an El, and had the El crest brazenly displayed on his chest. Yet Seg did not recognize any of them.

"Hello grandpa," the man said. "My name is Kal-El. I am your grandson. And these are- well. My sons, your great grandsons, Jordan and Jonathan."

The two boys waved with hesitant smiles. One kept his eyes on the ground while the other was a smidge too stiff.

"I-" The shock rolled over Seg. "I have a grandson? And great grandchildren?"

Kal-El shrugged and smiled. Right, stupid question.

Family. He had family, and they were proud to be Els.

"Well then when are we going to eat together? I don't know how the food situation will work just now, but we can figure something out." Seg grinned. It was a day for celebration. Tomorrow he would mourn all the time lost with the others he loved.

"That's what we're trying to figure out," Kal-El said.

The one looking at the ground finally looked up. "When Brainiac took you, he shrank the city as well as froze it. Dad unfroze it, but you're still shrunken. Grandpa's hologram is trying to work out a solution, but we have to also find a place to put you guys, and the DoD would be nervous about that so we're keeping you a secret-"

"But dad has a friend who might be able to shrink us so we can come in," the other finished.

"See you in about an hour," Kal-El said. The line cut off.

Jayna looked at him. "We have a lot of work to do."

Seg nodded. "But I have a feeling we'll have some help."

She grinned. "What is it you Els like to say? Always believe in a better tomorrow? I think it's time to build it."

Review of Krypton 2x10

YES I KNOW IT’S BEEN THREE MONTHS SINCE THE LAST REVIEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It got taken off All4 before I could watch it, and I’ve also been busy, and of course there’s the current crisis!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BUT I’VE WATCHED IT NOW ON AMAZON PRIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The last episode EVER (for now at least), and HOLY SHIT IT. WAS. AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! As always, spoilers under the cut!!!!!!!!!!!!

One of the best season finales for anything AND THIS SHOW DESERVED BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Val calling Zod and telling him “we’re coming for you”, and then calling him an arsehole. Iconic.

Each group thought each other was dead and it was so heartbreaking!!!!

I loved the moment between Jayna and Dev, and them quickly breaking apart once Lyta enters the room

I actually really loved the moment between Adam and Nyssa as well, Nyssa reassuring him that Val will do everything he can to help, and being impressed that Adam added time travel to the Zeta Beam device (I mean I did not expect that)

Seg still mourning Kem, and Kem will now be remembered as a member of House El, as Seg’s brother.

NYSSA STOLE THE FUCKING ZETA BEAM DEVICE HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Adam desperately trying to stop her, trying to get Val to stop her. I was impressed, that she did that, that she played Adam like that, but also shocked because she stole the device!!!!!!!!!

Lyta, Dev and Jayna resolving to stop Zod by themselves, but then the rest of the rebels turning up

Also Lyta just straight up disowning Zod was brilliant

Their toast to Kem was heartbreaking, it really was, and Seg saying that there won’t be laughs because he’s gone

I really wanted to see Seg’s reaction to Nyssa taking the Zeta Beam, though

Why did that Sagitari betray them? How did he even get found out?

I did like that other one, though, because he clearly didn’t like Zod’s methods. As I’ve said before, Zod’s tactics only go so far, and if there’s several dissenters and more every day, that’s proof.

Val really does care for Adam, and to be honest, THIS scene was pretty heartbreaking as well. It was heartwarming at first, with Adam saying that Val and Seg were family, and that Krypton was home now...but then we get his backstory. His mother died in childbirth, his father blamed him for it, nobody really stuck around in Adam’s life...it’s no wonder he felt a need to prove himself to someone, anyone, but most of all...himself. I really just wanted to give him a big hug in this scene.

The rebels using them being found out to their advantage, and the “Rondor Piss” guy deciding to stand with them.

Seg just straight up going into Kandor and yelling “ZOD!!” was brilliant.

His speech was great, and then when Lyta shows up and also gives a great speech was epic. AND THEN EVERYONE REFUSING TO ARREST THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fucking Iconic.

“General...would you care to step outside?”

Adam taking down two Sagitari whilst bed-bound was brilliant.

Seg taunting him and then him and Lyta teaming up to take down Zod was fucking amazing, as was Jayna being totally badass.

Nyssa seeing the Thanagarians was great.

Seg nearly killing Zod but Lyta stopping him because there has to be a better way

The E4 trailer showed Zod saying “prepare for the conquest of Earth”, and I was shocked because holy shit, they were going for Earth. It turning out to be a Black Mercy dream was actually a cool twist.

Drunk Val and Drunk Adam are hilarious. Also Adam showing off his jetpack and then proceeding to smack into the ceiling was so damn funny.

LOBO!!! And again Seg being just so unimpressed by him throughout the whole scene, but making a deal with him anyway.

THAT FUCKING ENDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BRAINIAC WITH JOR-EL HEADING FOR EARTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THEY’RE GOING TO TAKE OVER EARTH!!!!!!!!!!!!! And with Jor-El superpowered that is going to be devastating.

So it had a BRILLIANT set up for season 3, AND THEN THEY CANCELLED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THEY CANCELLED IT AND IT DESERVES SO MUCH BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This cannot be the end, even if it might seem to be for now!!!!!!!!!!!!! Honestly, aside from one episode, this season was bloody awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is not the end of the reviews. I am going to be rewatching S1 soon, partly for fic purposes, and I have decided that I will be reviewing each episode. Thanks for reading these ones!!! And tell people about Krypton, because this show deserves to finish its’ story, and all the characters deserve great arcs.
