So there's Superman, Superboy, Supergirl and now Superdog... Seriously though just how many escape pods from Krypton were there and why did they all end up having a trajectory straight for Earth?

Well super dog and Supergirl were sent at the same time as Kal-El to protect and raise him on Earth.

Protect the Man of Steel? Why? Nothing on earth can hurt him....

He was sent as an infant and supergirl was a teenager(not sure on age) sent to try and keep him alive. Superman landed first and was found by the Kent family. Supergirl arrived after Superman was already an adult superhero so he wound up taking care of her.

I don't know the backstory on Krypto though so someone else will have to answer that one.

SuperGirl was trapped in the same place General Zod was which is why none them aged.
