durakken's Superboy #2 - Superboys and Their Toys review

    Superboys and their Timelines.

    A slightly above average book that has one flaw that ruins the reading experience. The major flaw in this book is that it jumps back to something we already saw to somewhere we can't place.

    The first scene could have been handled in issue #1 and then made this issue less confusing, likewise the confusion in this issue occurs because in issue #1 along with Teen Titans #1 we see him join the Teen Titans, but in this issue it looks like he hasn't yet... which means we don't know where this issue actually places in the timeline between the 3 issues that have been released thus far.

    edit: Seems I made a mistake. Superboy doesn't join Teen Titans, however, the point still stands as confusing due to he's supposed to be being released to attack the Teen Titans and then they send him after something else.

    Because of this confusion it's just an average book or perhaps even slightly worse than average.

I really like his villain he is fighting. It r...

      The Good: Superboy dons his awesome costume, and that's pretty damn great. We actually get to see some of his 'mind in every cell of his body' in action. Rose gets more developed as a character, and I'm really liking this direction for her. We also get to see her in action and that's quite a treat. She's really coming around as a supporting character, retaining a lot of mystery.  The set up for the next issue is pretty intense. The Bad: Superboy #1 took a lot of fun little interesting twists and...
