Superboy-Prime

But there's a Superboy...

There's a Superboy Prime comic, which is...

That alone was enough to get me a number one.

But it's Superboy and his new friend slash girlfriend cosplaying as Constantine and Zatanna in a couple's cosplay.

The first thing comes out of New York City Comic Con from the DC panel.

We have the next level panel concluded with Joshua Williamson and Dan Mora talking about the Superboy Prime special they are going to be putting out.

And Williamson stated that his intention to continue on Superman for the foreseeable future, even as he continues developing Legion of Superheroes, and he revealed that he will have a one-shot focused on Superboy Prime.

He was featured in Superman during Clark's post-DCKO absence.

And Williamson told us that his mission statement was to give the comic savvy and former crisis-driving Superboy Prime his own redemption story.

Through outpouring support for his vision of the character from Superman fans, he feels as if Prime has earned his place in our hearts, which means it's time to team up with Dan Moore once more for a special that will send him back home.

Now, I don't know if you've been reading any of the Superman stuff or the Summer of Superboy, but it's been a real treat to see Prime come down this redemption arc that Williamson has been putting together for him.

Actually, I'm behind him as Superman reading, so I have not read that.

Still doing the year one stuff with Mark Waid.

And then we go on to Superboy Prime Special Issue 1 by Joshua Williamson.

50 pages of Joshua Williamson's Superboy Prime.

That's on you, Matt.

If you want to read this, you're free to, but I have free will and I plan to exercise it.

like Dan Moore R, but you didn't get me

to read that.

Also, reading the solicit text just infuriates me because it's all, like, meta in the way that Superboy Prime is, but it's meta to solicits.

Getting into the next story, Christopher Priest and Daniel Cimperi? Cimperi? I butchered that, probably.

With Superboy Prime and Spider-Man.

What did you think of...

this mike because this was a interesting because of like priests past

Uh, I am kind of not annoyed.

It's not like I'm angry because there's so much else in the world right now to be actually be angry about, uh, then, then, then a comic book.

But, uh, This whole vindication of Superboy Prime as a character lately, he's now the star of Superman.

There's a storyline now where he's taken over for Superman after this whole KO thing.

...

I love what they're doing with Superboy Prime, and this was very much-

Me too

...

Nice

...

Superboy Prime will be getting-

It is

First off being, once again, this man keeps prospering despite our opposition.

Uh, Super Boy Prime Special by Josh Williamson and Dan Mora.

Uh, focusing [laughs] on Prime, Super Boy Prime returning to the real world where he is actually from, um, which is our reality, technically.

Um, Brother Van, how are you feeling about this?

Hey, S- it's Super Boy Prime, man.

It's, you know, I...

S- I'm not reading it, but somebody is.

So we will get there.

Uh, and then also, in the mining tunnels underneath El Caldero, uh, Superman, Superboy Prime, and Connor Kent are reunited with Lois Lane, Tomorrow Man, who is Jon Kent, and Lana Lang, who is now, like, this Kryptonite woman.

She's been-

[laughs] She's green

But I think if you have that many, I think you just kind of can't.

Um, so I appreciated that we did get some, like, actual character stuff with, uh, with Supergirl, and with Superboy, who is, like, the, the Clark, you know, s- uh, young Clark from before he becomes Superman.

It's hard 'cause there's, it's hard 'cause there's also a Superboy, another Superboy, and a Superboy Prime.

Yeah.

Now, I'm assuming he means the Retroboot Legion.

Because when in the Superman issues during DC KO, when Superboy Prime and Superman went to this future, he saw a mix of legions, right? But he seems to be, I think the idea is that the Retroboot, the original Legion is his Legion.

I guess, right?

Yeah, okay.
