@superboyprime: To be perfectly fair, Superboy Prime was the villain and the universe was at the end of its run. What did you honestly want the end result to be?
Prime can trip on a rock, tumble down a very steep hill covered with thorny bushes, roll straight into the path of an oncoming truck full of animal feed, get sucked under the tire and get tossed around like a crouton in a salad for a few minutes before landing hard on the boiling hot asphalt, get picked up by a ravenous flock of seagulls, dropped into the ocean, meet a thousand pissed off sharks, have his limbless body sink on down into the twilight zone of the sea, encounter some ancient creature of biblical proportions that would make mint-flavored dental floss out of him before tossing him straight out of the water with a mighty toss, then land on a boat full of crab fishers who are really upset because they didn't meet the numbers they needed for a full successful season, get beaten up by said sailors, ditched in the coast of Adelaide, South Australia, picked up by a gang of rowdy drunk bikers visiting town for a convention, mugged and beaten some more, then thrown back into the ocean, struck down by a returning NASA satellite, recovered by NASA scientists, dissected for research, chosen as the lead candidate for a voyage to the sun, sent their A.S.A.P, burn to a crisp once reaching it's surface, and then have his scrawny little troll neck snapped in two by Chuck Norris for all I care.
What was that from some insult generator? You are aware that the sun makes him stronger right? And none of the other shit would hurt him either except maybe Chuck Norris.
LMAO beat by f*cking Teen Titans? Are you god damn serious? And put in the "Source Wall?" Gee they sure got there fast and easy, carrying Prime completely unshackled, when Prime should have recovered in minutes, if not less. The first time Prime met the Titans he wasn't even trying and accidently killed a bunch of people. Later he took on the Green Lantern Corps and practically committed genocide. In another battle he took on Superman, Supergirl, Powergirl, and the Justice League on low power and held his own. Just as a little bit of sunlight touched him he tossed them all aside like they were nothing. Then he took on Ion without his armor on and wiped the floor with him. He even took on the entire universe including a Guardian and made it out standing strong. You mean to tell me the TEEN TITANS actually SURVIVED this encounter? Prime should have mowed through all of them like Black Adam did Bialya. This is f*cking ridiculous. F*ck you J.T. Krul. How hard is it to do some research on one f*cking character, especially when there's stuff like Comicvine and Wikipedia out there? You are insulting the reader's god damn intelligence. You are disrespecting of us all, DC! I hope Prime comes back and kills EVERYONE. And wrong color boots you morons!
They changed the color of his boots? No, God why!!
Well just sayin. Those incompetent bastards could have at least got the boots right.
I wish that people would quit saying that he took on the ENTIRE GLC....he did NOT fight 7200 Green Lanterns
I don't think that would've mattered.
dude c'mon....7200 Green Lanterns working together....Prime wouldn't stand a chance
LOL! YEAH. RIGHT. You're assuming their green energy even hurts him. Modern lanterns can't do anything except shoot constructs at people. If power rings can simulate red sunlight then I suppose you're right, but when was the last time you seen a Lantern do that? Since Crisis, Green Lanterns don't have those kinds of abilities anymore. Ion didn't even have those abilities. Just look at the panels I posted. There were thousands of Lanterns right there, both Green and Yellow Lanterns ganging up on Prime with Kilowog, John Stewart, even Alan on the frontlines PLUS Power Girl, Wonder Girl, and Superman helping, yet Prime was kicking all their asses. Ion didn't stand a chance against him. Not even the Guardian stood a chance against him.
I'm only seeing him actually fighting 3 or 4 people at a time....I'm not denying that Prime is strong...stronger than a lot of characters...but no way he could take the combined might of 7200 Green Lanterns attacking him at the same time....the only characters that could take that are cosmic characters like Spectre or above
Do you have an idea of a scenario where 7200 lanterns COULD win? Because I just don't see one except for red sunlight.
If Prime can shrug off Ion's power what does it matter if there are 7199 other Lantern's hitting with the same if not weaker energy that doesn't bother him, even if it's all at the same. Prime can also move at lightspeed, theoretically ripping or heat blasting everyone's fingers off in an instant. Whatever they do, it would require a constant stream of willpower.
@TheCrowbar: I wouldn't really mind the over powered part if it didn't come with the emo prick aspect
So just because he's upset at the fact that he gave up his world, his girlfriend, and his family to save another world where all the "heroes" there are the real douche bags, that makes him an emo?
Why is that anyone who conveys just the slightest bit of human emotion nowadays is called an "emo"?
Seriously, what a stupid label. Prime is a tragic character, and I actually like how he's a prick to all those pretentious insects.

I think it's Plot Induced Stupidity, when a writer breaks continuity and has impossible scenarios happen because he failed to research a character and/or can't write for shit.
I thought it was ridiculous how powerful they made Prime in the first place. This seems more congruous with continuity. I mean, supergirl , wonder girl, and superboy both going all-out on someone with the whole of the titans backing them up? That should take down a superman analog.
And why is that? If Black Adam can take on the entire world at the end of 52, and Prime with his Silver Age powers can mop the floor with Black Adam in Infinite Crisis, then Prime should have been able to tear those Titans apart just like the first time they met.
