    The Worlds Finest Teens together again

     after oh so long, Tim Drake and Connor Kent are together again. 
     As Conner continues to struggle with is identity, he decides that he needs to get a bit more proactive about getting in touch with his best friend Tm drake, who he hasn't talked to extensively since he "came back" . when he finaly tracks Tim down, the two each confide in each other what they have refused to tell everyone else. 
     While most of the action is headed up by Krypto the super dog, this story isnt about the action. Its about two once confident heroes trying to re-discover themselves.  
     If your a fan of the Conner/Tim relationship, you can look forward to another one of those heartfelt conversations that Superman and batman always avoid ACTUALLY having.  
     Conner and Tim are back again... and it just feels right.
