    Kon-El

    Character » Kon-El appears in 1740 issues.

    Conner Kent, also known as Kon-El, is a human/Kryptonian hybrid clone of Superman and Lex Luthor created by N.O.W.H.E.R.E. for the purpose of being the mantle of Superman. Instead, he stuck to his own path, and became a member of the Teen Titans.

    Is Kon actually dead?

    @stephens2177: Yeah that's one thing I didn't like about John's take on him.He became kind of emo after he found out about the whole Luthor DNA thing and lost a lot of his cool swagger and attitude that 90's Superboy had

    If they bring Damian back to life, you can bet they will bring Kon-El too :3.

    Dumb questions :Why everybody seems to hate Jon Kent? Am I the only one that is willing to give him a chance to develop as character?? Remember what everyone said about Jason and Damian? End of questions, now waiting for the hate wave... XD

    @assassinb: this is a mass murdering psycho,not just a a it hero who is willing to kill the bad guy though,he is beyond redemption.

    I dont "hate" the character as much as hate that Kon's origin is determined completely now on Jon and harvest.

    Also i think the fact that Jon took over the book,with no sign of kon anywhere,they threw out kon like trash and brought in a character that has convulted Kon's origin tom"annoit" him the superboy.

    If they had kon in the book,but imprisoned somewhere or stuck somewhere,trying to get back somehow it might not be so bad.

    @stephens2177: He kill metas because he thinks they are evil :3 He is supposed to have promised to help humans get rid of the meta dictators in the future. He hasn't even yet showed all his motives. People just got angry he got over the series without even given him a chance as character. I liked issue 29 of Marv Wolfman, it was interesting, to bad he isn't writting Jon anymore. Jon's blame at bad characterization goes all to Lobdell though.

    And don't worry for Kon-El comic characters always come back, unless they are uncle Ben. Besides Damian seems to be returning this year :3

    @assassinb: Jon enjoys killing,that's enough,but taking Kon's place makes it even worse.

    @stephens2177: That's because he comes from a reality where everyone hates the new 52 reboot, and all the possible inter-dimensional Dan Didios in the multiverse, he has come to free us all form this stupid reboot and joke of a characters that barely resemble the heros we all know from the last 75 years, specially his deadbeat dad Superman (his mom is furious he quitted his job and became an irresponsible father just to woo with other superpowered colleagues :D). Let's prey that Jon succeeds in killing all the New 52 heros, and get back the real ones!!! :3

    @daredevil21134: @stephens2177: @fedykin87: I know that kon died saving everyone then became a watcher godling like thing then there was million different versions of him or something I read it a while ago n do not really remember but didn’t he come back to life then disappear, I have heard that he is coming back and coming back as the pre 52 version soon which is my favorite version kon plus he has the best costume ever a tshirt n jeans ( Red Robin /Tim drake “ that is not a costume)

    We also just saw the pre 52 older kon who is known as Superman now and is a member of the titans tomorrow and it’s not the test tube clone that Tim made,we know that pre 52 is gone it became the new 52 so the titans tomorrow r not from a another earth they r from the future which means kon returns right ? Probably, I really hope so

    @bigbadwolfx0: It is absolutely mind boggling what DC has done to Conner Kent. I grew up with Superboy and watched him go from an arrogant charming witty ladies man and screw up to a mature teen and respectable hero who saved the world during Infinite Crisis. Screw DC and all these other fake Superboy's the keep trying to replace him with. My Superboy had a 100 comic issues during his first freaking run and he banged Wonder girl and Tana Moon. I loved Tim Drake and Conner and I can't stand Damian and the other fakers.

    But to answer your question I have no idea.I really only follow Jason Todd these days.

    Jason should hook up with Artemis. And yes, Jason comes from the ghetto, a broken home, poverty and tragedy. The kid was force to to turn a life of crime and become an adult before he was ready. His issues made sense. I don't care about Nightwing so much, but Jason will always be my favorite.
