I'm probably one of the few people who enjoyed this character and looked forward to every appearance. Let's hope he lives up to his words that he "always comes back"

I know that line in the title got a lot of flack when it was published, but...it just fit him so well. Count me as a fan, too.
"Darkseid...always hated music..."
Every post I make, it should be assumed by the reader that the following statement is attached: "It's all subjective. What works for me doesn't necessarily work for you, and vice versa, and that's ok. You may have a different opinion on it, but this is mine. That's the wonderful thing about being a comics fan, it's all subjective."

Considering how Superboy Prime responded to the Post-COIE DCU, one can only imagine how badly he'd take the New 52.

Presumably he'd refer to it as the "Nu 52". Originally Posted by Buried Alien

And what the hell, as DC's symbolic king of angry comic nerds everywhere, bring him back to critique the new 52! Prime-style.

DC could have a hilarious new monthly feature: Superboy Prime's comics reviews. Originally Posted by famousringo

The best thing is that they wouldn't even need to write anything. Just get someone to cherry pick posts from here, the BC forums and Tumblr and they're good to go. Originally Posted by Buried Alien

Not to spoil the fun but shouldnt this be in the superman forums, considering there is a whole seperate superman forums, while the rest of the DCU is kinda squashed here.
This Earth Prime thing sounds kind of interesting

Superboy Prime is one of my favourite villains. Infinite Crisis and Sinestro Corps War are some of my favourite DC events because of him.

How can you not love him? Anything meta is A-ok with me. Was the Blackest Night tie-ins the last time we saw him?
If any character can breach the old to the new, it should obviously be him. No new origin. No continuity change. Just have him rip into something sometime soon and be the voice of the comedic fan-boy outrage. He's like DC's Deadpool. There's really no rules with him. The sillier things got, the more I enjoyed him. It's a bummer someone like Morrison never got to utilize him, given his usage of 4th wall breaking and meta-message.
