Who is Krypto the Dog?

If Superman is the Man of Steel, Krypto the dog is surely the Pup of Steel! Krypto is Superman's pet, and he is powerful, too, as he has a range of superpowers including flight and super strength!

Although Krypto is naughty and playful, he knows when his owner is in trouble, making him the superhero's best companion.
