    Default So, is Kon-el being retconned out of existence?

    Is the "Super-Man" his replacement?

    Whoa, I didn't even think of that. Could honestly be true. He might in fact be the one in the Rebirth picture with that Flash-like character and Supergirl. I mean we've gotten literally zero news about Kon.

    Damn, well I hope this "Super-Man" is good.

    I hope not.DC did a royal screw job on kon,i mean seriously kon is done well everywhere else,but not in the actual comics,come on.

    Between the superman in China,and jon as the new superboy,DC probably just erased kon,or even worse he will be back as a villian .

    Expect to see him in Infinite Crisis II.

    I'm disappointed. Kon was a great part of Superman mythologies.

    I need to look at it again, but doesn't one of the teaser's show a Leather Jacket clad Kon-El looking silhouette?

    Remember according to Johns, everybody matters. Nobody is being retconned away like in the NU52. I will trust him until I don't.

    They already set him up as Harvests super puppet,so i have no faith that DC will do anything,but ruin him more.

    Go full on heroic,or forget about it

    Well we havent really had a full fledged happy heroic superboy in the new 52,if you dont count Smallville season 11,that injustice gods among us version,the superman family adventures,the bizzaro earth 16 kon,and the best version in years-the YJ tv show one.all are heroes and all better executed than the version in the main DCU.

    Jon has suffered the most in the new 52 . Not sure what they are going to do there.

    I'm still going with "carefully ignored" over actually being retconned out. But essentially I think he's gone, yes.
