    I only know of 1 time and kryptonite wasn’t even used. Doomsday just best him to death.

      Depending on the writer, there are three consistent kryptonite types:

      Green weakens him, but overall it doesn’t kill him. Strips his powers, makes him faint or just weak and nauseous.

      Blue just takes his powers away either temporarily or permanently

      Red intoxicates him or enhances his impulsiveness/brashness

      There are others, but they kind of shift of just don’t exist in the main canon

    I remember in a Lobo comic, Lobo grips a chunk of Kryptonite in his fist as he punches straight thru Superman’s chest and heart, right out the other side! Don’t fuck with the Main Man!
