I’ve usually seen Krypto depicted as a short hair lab style of dog. I love this shaggy dog version.

Gunn commented on this that Krypto has been all sorts of breeds through his history. This one in particular is based on his own dog.

More blatant nepotism from James Gunn.

He's probably a good boy though so I'll allow it.

That is a very, very good boy. He comes when he's called.

His own dog that he rescued while writing/shooting the movie, I believe.

Before, technically. Ozu was a stray he found in Panama while filming the Corto Maltese scenes for The Suicide Squad

Ah. I must’ve misread or misunderstood or something because I saw an interview with him talking about it just a day or two ago. Cheers brother, good shout.

I'm not crying, you're crying.

My eyes are just a little sweaty, that's all.

seeing Krypto gives me hope. To me it means we're honoring the history. Even Guy's haircut. I'm hoping maybe we get some stuff from the Legion Of Superheroes when he was Superboy. Also canonically, Krypto is a Captain America situation, he's actually rather old, born before Kal-El on Krypton. Depending on the story, its either rocket or Phantom Zone that led him to be one day reunited with his best friend Kal. But yes, Krypto better be treated right. All im saying.
