Looking through the classic story, Five Legion Orphans (Adventure 356), I was reminded that Rokyn was "settled by survivors of Krypton when the bottle-city of Kandor was enlarged". Since we've had a mention of Rokyn (maybe two? must check) in the series, could there be a Kryptonian in the Legion's future? Or just teasing?

Just a mention because other speculators may have forgotten Rokyn's history, as I had.

To avoid the problem of millions of kryptonians flying around the Earth 1 DCU, wasn't Rokyn a planet that half existed in another dimension?

I don't really remember it, I was young when Superman enlarged Kandor.

Did all this happen in SUPERMAN (vol.1) 339 in a story called "Let My People Grow" written by Len Wein with art by Curt Swan and Frank Chiaramonte?

Rokyn has been mentioned twice in the new series (once in a joke and as where the Legion went on a mission). It may just be Mark Waid's love of Superman trivia, but it certainly is interesting...
