Now, it's still a few months away and all, but has anybody heard ANYTHING good about the new Superboy book?! I mean it looks like DC is COMPLETELY destroying Conner's entire history and rebooting him as a failed clone... Now, I like SB, so it should go with out saying that this kind of pisses me off... Any thoughts on this whole, "The Clone" thing?

Yeah, I'm not happy about this at all. Conner is my favorite member of the Super-Family, currently. He's an interesting character. It's cool. But...the new series? It looks like he's being rebooted, not just relaunched. Which is a damn shame.

I couldn't agree with you more, Caz... SB is also my favorite member of the Supes family, hell, I managed to pick up the full run of his 90's series off of eBay, so you KNOW I like the character. Now it looks like everything we liked about the current SB is going to be wiped away so they can do this dumb, "The Clone" thing... Man do I hope it's not as bad as it looks!

Well, technically he's already "a clone" but...the way it looks in the relaunch looks terrible. I think almost every character (with the obvious exceptions) is perfectly fine as for who they are and their basic origin story.

Yeah, he was "A Clone" but now he's "The Clone"! I mean are people REALLY gonna call him, "The Clone" now?! I sure hope not!

It seems to me that they are going to be making him match the backstory of the Superboy on the current Young Justice animated series. I think that it's absolutely stupid as they've had these differences before in other shows.

Ah, I haven't ever watched that cartoon(Avengers: Earth Mightiest Heroes 4ever!!!), but if that's the case, that's really lame... The comic versions of a character is always going to be better than the screen version... Ah well... Alas poor Superboy, I knew ye well...
