No.
Clark Kent appeared as Superboy and a member of the Legion in DC's Cybernetic Summer one-shot, released just this summer. A Superboy/Clark Kent robot also appeared in the story (he was the...
I started with Superboy #199—"The Gun that Mastered Men"—in 1973. I still have a great deal of love for the Bates/Cockrum/Shooter/Grell days.
But the Levitz/Giffen period is my favorite overall,...
Don't forget Young Justice: Sins of Youth! An issue of Superboy tied in directly with that event.
Having not read the Legion (consistently) for six years after I had done so for forty simply because DC wasn't publishing a Legion ongoing, this "Nostalgia Fanatic" is absolutely loving the new...
I have no "earliest memory" of Superman. As like with many others, I can't recall not knowing about him.
My first real exposure might have been reruns of Adventures of Superman, or a mid-1960s...
I had to reread the first three issues again, but then I got into the finale and really loved it. I enjoyed reading the pitch for the series, too, and seeing how many differences there were between...
Thanks for the update, Kurt.
Previewsworld is showing that Batman: Creature of the Night #4 by Kurt Busiek and John Paul Leon has been pushed back yet again. The release date is now set for Nov. 27, four weeks later than the...
I'm a bit leery, after what Bendis did to Jon Kent, about how all this will go... Not super enthused about Saturn Girl's redesign especially. Really rather blah.
But I'm cautiously optimistic...
We should start a betting pool on when issue #10 comes out. The release date has been changed to May 22 on the DC Comics site.
My bet: First week of June. That would make Doomsday Clock...
The New Teen Titans:
Changeling (who, strictly speaking WAS NOT new!)
Cyborg
Raven
Starfire
Jericho
And of course, Danny Chase!
I just turned 58. I've reading comics (primarily DC) since sometime in the late 1960s. I just can't remember for certain what my first comic was.
And it goes beyond the four-color world. I looked...
There's always the potential.
Bringing back American Vampire would be a step in the right direction...
I read Books of Magic (print), an old favorite, and The Dreaming (digital). I'm enjoying both of them.
I started reading both Lucifer and House of Whispers, but neither one really kept my...
I prefer Superman with adventures as Superboy, both in his own time and with the Legion. To preserve the specialty of his debut an adult:
1) As a kid, he could be a street-clothes superhero....
1. Batman: Creature of the Night #4 to finally be published.
2. To actually see more Black Label titles other than Batman: Damned, specifically Superman: Year One, originally set to debut last...
Jon is already being rebranded "Jon Kent" on the covers of Superman. There also hasn't been a separate Superboy creator credit for the last few issues (i.e., "Superboy created by Jerry Siegel"),...
That page is one of the best moments from Super Sons.
It feels like that's all going to be lost with Jon's overnight aging and Damian's thuggish behavior in Teen Titans. :p to both developments.
I want Jon restored to his proper age, ten or eleven years old. But I'm willing to wait until the current storyline is done.
If I'm limited to just one thing, this would be it.
But it isn't just the Legion (which is a big part of it; don't get me wrong).
Superman's career as Superboy always meant, on Earth-1, that...
Yup. I've been reading Border Town too and loving it.
But the instant I heard this news, I knew it was dead.
And now it's official: ...
I would revive Superboy, but not as the superhero of Smallville. Rather, make young Kal-El the superhero of Kansas, or an area perhaps focused on the Kansas Cities that encompasses parts of both...
Um, not quite. The Legion Index came OUT in the 1980s. But the five published issues only covered the Legion until 1970, through Action Comics #391, as I recall (literally a single issue before their...
I always liked Danny Chase ... but I never liked Phantasm. He could be annoying (that was kind of the point), but so could Gar Logan.
Anyway, after twenty years since any decent story featuring...
