ITT: Post anything you like about any of the Superboys: Kal-El, Kon-El, Prime, etc. If they’ve used the name “Superboy,” they count.
>>155985656Conner Kent
>>155985770What about him?
Here’s a deep cut: Black Zero, evil alternate version of Kon-El. Wouldn’t mind this character sticking around as an enemy of the Superman Family.
>>155985656Good idea, anon. I have been interested in Superman lately and I would like to talk about Superboys.So, let's start with Jon. While aging up Jon was a mistake, I don't think the way Bendis did it was too horrible. Jon being lost in space and tortured for years could have a really good potential for his character and Superman + Lois. Making him a fag was his true downfall, but not unfixable. His latest appearance with Wally was seriously good and it's nice to see him having bonds beyond Damian. Prime was just a breath of fresh for the main Superman run which was seriously boring. Williamson handled him well enough and I would like to see interact with the rest of the superfamily especially Jon.As for Conner, I don't care much for him to be honest.
>>155985656Chad-El had the best costume. (Third best SB, though)
>>155987194Love the OG Kon-El costume. He’s probably my third favorite Superboy too, behind Kal-El and Prime respectively.
I know a lot of people dislike Dreamer because she’s transgender, but I actually really like her as a love interest for Jon because of how thematically resonant she is. >alliterative name: Nia Nal>has the power to dream of the future meaning she can see the future the man of tomorrow creates >inspired by Superman as a kid>ability to walk in dreams lets her inspire hope at night just like how Jon inspires the day >Jon is descended from the last survivor of a good species while Nia is descended from a runaway from a species run like minority report. >makes bad decisions under coercion and looks to Jon to guide her >effectively a redemption story >has a responsibility to protect people’s minds the same way Jon is responsible for their bodies>white and blue costume mixes with Jon’s red and blue to make Red White and Blue >conflict avoidant personality contrasts with Jon’s drive to do the right thing >also half alien with no memory of original planet >Hopes and Dreams contrast
>>155985656>If they’ve used the name “Superboy,” they count.can this also be a rule to loophole talking about clark in nightwing threads?
>>155987714Yes.
>>155987837All right, someone needs to make the jacket IRL.
>>155987593
>>155987194>>155987392The spikes added by Gleason to the leather jacket were truly stupid and edgelord pointless.>>155987051>don't care much for him to be honestHe's been ill-served by pretty much all stories or series he's been in since 2011, especially since the Nu52 version was truly NotKon
>>155987194Tim and Kon going back to their 90s costumes is the perfect representation of their regression and stagnation as charactersAlso Kon looks like a massive faggot here.
>>155987051I truly believe the only way to fix Jon is kill him off and revive him as a kid again, like they did with Bart after no one liked him as Flash.
I had this poster as a kid. I remember thinking that was a titty, even though it’s her hand.
>>155985656Is there more of the artist drawing his ass?
>>155987837you also got Gwenpool as a GF
>>155989944Prime belongs to Witchfire.
>>155988926That might work. You could give the Tomorrow Man identity to someone else and that’s who made the identity famous as mentioned by Booster.
>>155990438she still exists?
>>155991052Yep. She’s basically DC’s Mary Jane now, only with powers.
>>155990438Based and tastepilled.I want more goddamn it and I don't want to have to wait until next year.
>>155991235I know how you feel, anon. But look at it this way, you’ll appreciate it more when you don’t get it all the time.Also, I’m surprised no one has made a “do it for her” Simpsons meme for Witchfire.
>>155991212nice, i need come back to his comic
>>155991277Good compilation here to start, and that recent Halloween issue.
>>155991347Nice. That’s a good base for the image.On a side note, I could see her being a cosplay favorite if she keeps getting popular.
>>155987593I’ve only seen her in supergirl but I can dig it. He protects the waking world she protects the sleeping world
>>155991025>You could give the Tomorrow Man identity to someone elseWhy, though? If Jon could find success with his new identity, that's a good thing. I don't want him to end up like Damian who keep going through the same development cycle because writers can't do anything else with him.
>>155992016Because Kid Jon was a better character and has more potential, both story wise and marketing wise.
>>155992415Ok, and how are you going to save him from end up like Damian? Or worse, Tim or Kon? He won't be allowed to grow up naturally like Dick or Wally did because that would mean making Superman old. Aging up Jon was indeed a mistake, but that doesn't mean there's nothing at all you can do with older Jon. The only thing holding him down is the homo part and that can be fixed by making him asexual if dc is so afraid of upsetting the rainbow crowd.
>>155992016>Damian who keep going through the same development cycle because writers can't do anything else with him.its genuinely skill issue for the writers. in a few years damian will have outlasted tim's entire run as robin and will only be lagging dick by a decade and change. there is absolutely no excuse that they have failed to develop him at all.
>>155992719>its genuinely skill issue for the writersIt's skill issue, but it's also because there's nothing much else you can do with Damian once you resolve his issues. It's why his character keep regressing every two years or so.
>>155989486>artist drawing his assThere's a lot of sexy images of Boy Prime from his run, but one cover, if I can find it does.
>>155992792The only reason they cant think of anything to do with his character is because the entire writers room are creatively braindead. To put it into perspective, jason went from the red-headed son of the Flying Todds to Red Hood in less time than damian has spent spinning his wheels as robin.
Based mindset
Anyone have the page of older superheroines lusting after Prime?
