You sure about that, Paine? As an avid comic book reader in days of
yore, i vaguely remember something about the "red sun of Krypton". The
story line always seemed to imply it was 'waaay far distant from our
solar system.
Yes, the red sun came a little later. IIRC, it was the
very first time Kal-El's origins were exposed, either

It was the first episode of the radio show, "The
Adventures of Superman", that debuted February 12,
1940. I think the comic mag was only about a half a
year old at the time, and the initial comic strip had
been started about a year before that.
happy days and...
starry starry nights!
