The Fortress of Solitude is Clark Kent's sanctuary in the Arctic,[1] which holds information about his dead planet Krypton and allows him to communicate with the A.I.'s of his late ancestors.[2]
Kara Danvers began using the Fortress as well after becoming Supergirl.[3]
Overview[]
The Fortress of Solitude is a vast sanctuary hidden somewhere in the Arctic. It appears to be built entirely from either crystal or ice. [1]
Inside, the compound houses a display of items Superman collected over the years from his adventures, as well as statues of his parents. Also present is some form of interactive computer database.[2][1]
History[]
At some point in the history of Earth-Prime, three rings that could absorb and emit Kryptonite radiation[4] were stored in Fortress. The Jarhanpurian named Rama Khan claims that they were his and were stolen from him long ago.[5]
In January 2020, Kara Danvers kept a bottled Earth in the Fortress until she and her allies would find a way to restore the planet in the new multiverse.[3]
Angry that Kara planned to use Myriad after saying that it was forbidden, Lena Luthor was teleported to the Fortress. Unbeknownst to her, a Morae who worked for Leviathan traveled with her. As Kara and Lena argued about hypocrisy, the Morae agent opened the cage to a baby Sun-Eater.
Lex Luthor finds the Fortress.
Later, Lex Luthor noticed that he had access to Superman's Fortress of Solitude through the teleporter.[1] While inside the Fortress, Lex stole something for Leviathan to be used against Supergirl,[5] later revealed to be Rama Khan's rings.[4]
When Lex invaded the Fortress of Solitude, he took the solar hammer and used it to try to destroy the Fortress, but he was stopped by the Superfriends.[6]
At some point, the Superfriends hid five of the AllStone Totems in the Fortress of Solitude.[7]
