area: FORTRESS OF SOLITUDE
I had the opportunity to design one of the most iconic locations in all of DC lore... the Fortress of Solitude. It was designed as a large map and needed to be as Superman's Fortress has a LOT of areas that make it iconic. The Sunstone Simulator, The Phantom Zone, Bottled City of Kandor, Atomic Cauldron, Cosmic Anvil and the memorial statue of House El - they all made it in.

The Interplanetary Habitat and Museum were scheduled to make an appearance and are drawn in - however the cages were never filled due to time constraints.

Fortress of Solitude Highlights:
  • Sunstone Simulator
  • The Phantom Zone
  • Bottled City of Kandor
  • Atomic Cauldron

    This simulator is the virtual embodiment of all Kryptonian knowledge and culture. By sliding specific crystals into their corresponding receptacles, Superman can activate a holographic simulation of his father, Jor-El.

    The Portal and Projector to the Phantom Zone - the famous prison with such inmates as General Zod. Kandor is a miniaturized city populated with people from various alien cultures. It is named after the original Kandor City, a lunar colony from Superman's home planet, Krypton.

    The Fortress houses a large statue of the deceased parents of Superman - a memorial to them and the lost world of Krypton.

    Located deep in the Earth, the Atomic Cauldron is the most powerful furnace in the world.
