Conner Kent/Kon-El/Superboy Appreciation 2024

[The Frog Bros]

Is it me, or does Kara’s hair look excessively big in that top panel? Like, almost as big as Kon’s battle axe.

Interesting thread that examines Conner costume history and a deeper look at how they've all been reflective of the time period they were introduced and highlight the evolution/stagnation of the character.

Glad it says the new 52 Superboy suit is raw cuz it is.

I do wonder collectively how much money this guy has spent on all the ConnerxCassandra artwork he's had made by various artists over the years, commissions from what I hear aren't cheap.

At this point it might've been more financially sound to have sent himself to art school where he could've gained the skills to draw it himself.

From what I've heard.....thousands of dollars at minimum but I also heard he has the funds to it and his commissions have helped struggling artists.

Someone made the Superboy version of Kara design from the Marc Andreyko run, rare to see the male version of a female design it's usually the reverse.

That run had so much potential and actually made the whole Rogol Zaar/Kryton destruction storyline somewhat interesting but when it inevitably had to tie back into to what Bendis was doing it all went down the gutter and then the book was constantly dragged into endless crossovers.

I honestly don't think Kara ever had truly solid run outside of Woman of Tomorrow by Tom King, all the ones with potential like Andreyko or Sterling Gates end up getting screwed over by editorial interference.
