that incorporates and extends both
Bridwell Kryptonese and
Brewer Kryptonian
From 2017 to 2023, Darren Doyle's
version of the Kryptonian Language was used in various television shows and
an issue of Supergirl. Beginning in 2024, DC Comics returned to using the 1970s-1980s Kryptonese in the
Superman family of comic books.
Darren Doyle's Kryptonian Language Project is still active and the site (as of 2025) is currently being revamped/updated.
This Kryptonese/Kryptonian page at Superman Through the Ages! is primarily concerned with the languages of the
planet Krypton as presented in the comic books; and does not include information about the two different conlangs developed
for the motion pictures (Man of Steel;
Superman (2025)).
