Superman: son of Kal-El

[Superboy-Prime]

That's what TV is for.

And now it's what the comics are for too! A teenage Jon Kent in both mediums! Man, I love cinema.

Jon the only son who matters spends all his camera time playing second fiddle to some random twin & not doing much but if you like that medium good 4 you!

Both my teen Jons are such supportive people, thank you! Goof 4 you too!

It is strange, but similar to Second Son, I'm under the assumption that it's more so a holding pattern than the point of her. My guess is that like Jace, a little later this year or the next she'll make the jump to Wonder Woman.

I think they're making too much of an effort to promote her as Wonder Girl now, maybe because they don't feel they need to do with Diana what they might be doing with Bruce and Clark.

Now that you mention it, Jon should dye his hair blonde! He's already exactly like his Superman & Lois counterpart, looking like him would be extra synergy! Our ideas keep bouncing off of each other.

Don’t think they want to invite potential homelander comparisons for Jon, and yes I did basically just call that character blonde Superman.

Actually I think making Jon Blond would be great to differentiate him from Clark so yes that's a great idea!! Making him a mini Homelander could do wonders for him!

Jon and Yara are good opposites to each other.

Yeah!when jon acts like clark.Yuck! That superman/ww issue was boring heck! People jon is only getting fleshed out in cw . can't comment. Jon is only bland when these guys have writers write him with clark-ish personality.Adult or kid.

I would prefer dark purple hair for the kid.

Even Kid Jon wasn't as cocky as Adult Yara. I'd imagine that younger Yara's even more hot headed and cocky.

Dyed bright hair with dark eyebrows and roots always looks cool

I see it as going two ways.I wasn't talking about cockyness.That would be there.But,jon is a reckless and energetic guy.Jujutsu kaisen like hair would be too similar to fairytale.I believe,@blue22 would like it.I am ok with it.

Since we are on haikyuu.it's kinda funny,i always pictured Wakatoshi Ushijima as Superman/clark.This unbeatable and sincere monster eagle.Jon is kinda hinata in personality.Reckless guy jumping around causing a mess.

A new bit from Tom Taylor’s ABC Melbourne interview:

“It’s a new Superman, so this is a Superman that was born a few years ago in the comics and was suddenly aged up in a volcano—it’s all very strange. Slightly convoluted back history, but for us it’s all about finding a new Superman for today, it’s about finding really what is Superman today, what should he represent. And it’s about finding that relevance and finding issues around today. It’s easy enough to punch an alien invasion, but it’s harder to punch government inaction on the climate crisis. For me it’s about finding his story and him finding his own way.”

I enjoyed Future State SM/WW, so I’ll be happy to see if the climate crisis plot point is explored. Kind of excited to see Jon be a different type of Superman and tackling modern issues by leaning onto his human side.

What I got from that is that he's not really interested in writing Jon as Superman so much as he is interested in writing a Superman for today (and it just so happens he'll do it with Jon).

[garazza]

Wow, who knew that Clark was such an antiquated character, a boomer if you will, he can't adequately address modern problems and you have to make a new character for that and not that writers just won't write more nuanced stories.

What I got from that is that he's not really interested in writing Jon as Superman so much as he is interested in writing a Superman for today (and it just so happens he'll do it with Jon).

Taylor was done dirty. He finally got his chance to write to Superman and it's under a reviled editorial mandate that not even his good will with audiences can get over. From the sounds of it, he doesn't care about character so long as he gets to tell his story, which is unfortunate.

I’m sure he didn’t have Jon in mind as his first choice for a run.
