The Krypton Club was the precursor to what eventually became KryptonSite, with K-Site creator Craig Byrne as the co-editor of the early newsletters. For the newsletter's first two weeks of existence the newsletters were daily! (For those keeping score that would mean we'd be around newsletter #3200 if it had continued). The Krypton Club Newsletter eventually became Planet Krypton, and later Planet Krypton: The KryptonSite Newsletter, and sadly it hasn't been printed in a while outside of perhaps a special you may have gotten in your mailbox today. Anyhow, here is the first of the daily newsletters, from May 22, 1995:

L&C KRYPTON CLUB************DAY ONE*************MAY 22, 1995
********SUPERMAN92 AND CRAIG BYRNE, PRESIDENTS********
"GREAT SHADES OF ELVIS!"

INTRODUCTION

Welcome to the very first edition of the L&C Krypton Club newsletter. Each day you'll notice a different L&C quote. That will be your indication that what's coming to you is a Krypton Club e-mail. Today's "Great Shades of Elvis," tomorrow's could be....who knows?

The Krypton Club is NOT meant to compete with any other online L&C clubs. The purpose is different. The purpose of the Krypton Club is interactivity. With the daily newsletter (sent through e-mail), you can not only read about L&C-related stuff, but there is a daily trivia question for you to respond to. And we are always welcoming anything and everything into the newsletter. We're interactive, we like your input!

REVIEW: "AND THE ANSWER IS...."
BY SUPERMAN92

While this episode had many positives, there were quite a few negatives as well. I'll start with the bad stuff. Two words-----NO REVELATION! Clark did not get to actually tell Lois he was Superman, that was very frustrating. The phone ringing thing was especially annoying. There were also plot holes in the episode(I won't go into detail). The cliffhanger was frustrating because now we have to wait until next season for the answer! Also, I felt that the way Supe got out of the chamber was very tacky. Why would there be a vent in a gas chamber when the purpose of the chamber is to keep gas in? Also, as Whyt Ravyn put it, gas sinks, it doesn't rise. I guess it was just a way to get rid of Kryptonite. Now for the positives. The romance in the episode was superb. Not only did Lois and Clark have romantic scenes, but so did his parents. The typical TV plot of "if something happens to me tell so and so I love him/her" was romantic also. Lois also finally told Supe that she loves CK. Lois did start to figure out that CK=Superman. The stroke across the face obviously shot some sense into her. (It's about time!) And of course the proposal and a kiss was a big plus! It looks like my wishes may come true next season with Lois getting a clue!

Romantic, yet Frustrating!

Each day we will be asking a different L&C-related trivia question. Here's the question for today.....
