So does Superboy being in the Legion of Superheroes mean that he won’t be in Superman’s comic or Action Comics anymore?
I hope that’s not the case. I like Superboy being a part of his father’s comic.
They’re probably carting him away to the 31st century to get him out of the way so Conner can be the Superboy of now. I guess we should just be grateful they aren’t killing Jon off in a retcon or some grimdark gorefest.
That’s unfortunate. As much as I like the Conner Kent Superboy, he had his time as the boy of steel. I prefer that they keep Jon as Superboy since for the last three years they’ve established him as Superman’s son as well as Clark’s. What I mean by that, is that the world knows of Jon’s existence as well as Superboy’s. And that I just can’t see how they could explain his absence from the world without another reality changing event. I mean wouldn’t Perry wonder what happened to him? I thought that he was Jon’s godfather. So wouldn’t he… Read more »
I just hope that at some point there will be a writer who will fix this and make Jon the age that he originally was and bring him back into the current timeline, and also find a way for Conner to retire the Superboy mantle and pass it on to Jon.
