I’m happy that he’s back as well but I do think that he should change his costume. When he quit being Superboy is when he changed to the jeans & T-shirt. He said that prime was right that he quit trying to be superboy. SO now that he’s back & HE’S SUPERBOY he should “suit up”. He should get a cosutme that inspires people like a mix of the future titans costume & his old superboy costume…just my thoughts.

I loved and followed Superboy from the time he debuted in the Reign of the Supermen storyline, to his solo series, and through to Young Justice.

Then he went over to Teen Titans and I followed him over there too. I love Geoff Johns and think everything he does is golden but… Teen Titans was the only exception. I hated it. He took Superboy, whom I loved, and basically stripped away his personality and everything else that made him unique.

When he died in Infinite Crisis, I didn’t even care. The character I had loved was pretty much gone, except for the name, at the end of Young Justice. Part of me was even glad that he died because I didn’t have to look at what had been done to one of my favourite characters anymore.

Now he’s back. As of now, I also don’t really care about that. Not unless Johns uses this opportunity to change his method of writing Superboy. Giving him his personality back, and bringing back his actual costume (his second one)are things that need to happen.

I’ll give it a shot and can only hope that Superboy truly is coming back from the dead, and not just some guy with most of his powers.

I am overjoyed to see both Conner and Bart Allen back. Now we can see how the characters were beginning to develop before their untimely deaths.

[...] Superboy will be appearing in the new Adventure Comics alongside the Legion of Super-Heroes. A preview of Francis Manapul’s Adventure art shows the Boy of Steel playing catch with Krypto under the wide Kansas skies, as Martha Kent looks [...]

Eh, I didn’t mind Superboy being killed off when it happened, primarily because (a) I figured somebody would be able to bring him back, and (b) if it wasn’t him, it would’ve been Dick Grayson. No offense, but that would’ve been 1000 times worse than killing off Conner.

For the last 3 years I have been waiting for Kon’s return. His first appearance was the first issue I picked up when I got back into comics.

Killing off Conner and Bart destroyed the Teen Titans comic in my opinion. I dropped it shortly after Bart’s death.
Now that they are both back (in the same mini series even!) I am really looking forward to reading the interactions between Bart, Wondergirl, Robin and Kon.

However I think Kon wont be around the present for very long as I think he will take off and join the Legion in the future. He does owe them his life after all.

Either way, I am ecstatic that he is back!

Quit complaining about his costume, and just be happy that he’s back. Yeesh, some comic fans will whine about anything, it’s just sad.

I´m so happy with Connor´s return. Since his death, I think not only DC but Teen titans lost a lot and I can´t wait to read AC # 1, I hope he is part of the roster for the tittle.

You know why it’s a bad costume? You can walk into Wal-Mart and walk out fifteen minutes later with exactly the same costume. He’s not even trying with that outfit.

DC - thank you, thank you, thank you! First Bart and now Conner! You’ve just made my day with sneaking this artwork. I can’t wait for Adventure Comics now, especially with having both Conner and the Legion to look forward to. And having Geoff Johns at the reins storywise.

This summer just keeps looking better and better between Battle for the Cowl, Darkest Night, the World of Krypton storyline and now this. It gives me hope that maybe someday we’ll even get the team of Tim, Bart, Cassie and Conner back on Teen Titans where they belong, maybe with Jamie as Blue Beetle added into the mix.

I just can’t stop smiling over this news!

#1. This site is freakin awesome. Nirvana for a DC fan.

#2. I love these new co-features. I’m assuming the Legion will be a full-on co-feature in ADVENTURE? It’s not made clear, but they said “co-feature” and I would love to see their own 10 page story and not just running around in the background of a Superboy book. Either way, I’m there!

#3. Really hoping ADVENTURE will be Krypto’s regular home too.

#4. Really, really hoping Bart as Kid Flash will be a regular partner for Barry when the FLASH ongoing starts.

#5. Geoff Johns rocks.

Have been a fan since he broke out of Cadmus. Under Geoff’s direction he only got stronger and sorted into a prime member of the DC Universe. I knew in my heart this day would come as Conner is too good a character.
And with this I say thank you one and all and yes, I did cheer a whoop at the artwork, come on, it ROCKS!

Geoff has just posted on this in his blog:
http://www.geoffjohns.com/2009/04/hes-baaaaaack/

This is very good news - that the Legion will be co-featuring in Adventure Comics. I am mightily relieved, and once again looking forward to ‘Adventure’.

I have to say.. it’s a pity the DCU blog didn’t make that clear from the start. A few temporary frowns could have been avoided.

Thank you, DC!! I’m so excited Conner is back! This is the just awesome! Bart and Conner! I love it! Two of my favorite heroes are back in action. I can’t wait for Adventure Comics!

Hmm. You do have a point. Still, to point out further information, there’s a thousand year gaop between Starman getting Conner’s body and Conner coming back. We don’t know how well these black rings are able to function when it comes to finding a body and zombifying them. We still don’t know how and when Thom found that Chrysalis and buried it. And the Brainiacs never stated WHAT caused the damage to Conner’s body, so there is still the possibility that it really was Prime, or that it suffered worse damage IF it becomes a Black Lantern. I hope I don’t start one of those fan arguments.

To Jude Deluca: Conner’s body in the 21st century can’t become a Black Lantern because his body is being kept in the revival stasis in the Fortress of Solitude, Conner was revived the same way Superman was revived, only it took longer because Superboy is half human and had much worse wounds than Superman did.

THANK YOU, DC!!!!!!

I wish Kon would come back to the Teen Titans, though. It’s not the same without him… but hey, I’ll be happy with Kon in Adventure Comics for now.

I’m real happy that Superboy is back, now I hope that Geoff gives Superboy a better costume than he is wearing right now, or at least return to his first one. Besides all that, I’m looking forward to this.
