HE'S BACK

>>149484133 (OP)
im not gonna lie i thought i was gonna open this and see peridot spread eagle.

man's already had his happily ever after, it was the only good thing to come out of death metal

Oh man I don't know how I feel about this

>>149484133 (OP)

>>149484133 (OP)
>>149484137
no thanks, he already had closure, leave him rest in peace

>>149484141
>peridot spread eagle
Mind explaining?

>>149484204
Marvel and DC say: FUCK CLOSURE. BUY OUR COMICS, STUPID PAYPIGS.

>>149484133 (OP)
>>149484137
I hate Johns.

>says he's done with comics
>comes back anyway
I'm honestly not gonna pretend like I didn't expect this.

>>149484253
a spammer obsessed with peridot used to post threads with spoiler or GIF images that turned into peridot presenting her ass to piss off the jannies, i remember one of them lasting over 2 days despite everybody noticing lmao

>>149484506
dont forget that he did it constantly for like 3 weeks straight.

>>149484133 (OP)
Why he had a good ending leave him be

>>149484519
>3 weeks
pretty sure it was more like 3 years

Why has nobody murdered Superboy Prime yet?

>>149484576
he did it on and off but a about na year ago i think he set up a bot because everytime a thread went down it would be back up within about 5 minutes with some random spellings.
but yeah hes probably here right now....

HE HAD CLOSURE! HE WAS HAPPY!

>>149484593
He's the Strongest

>>149484133 (OP)
>>149484137

>>149484133 (OP)
HE'S B(L)ACK

>>149484618
Gotta love how many writers were so fucking over Batman Who Laughs/Metal that they essentially vented through tie-ins, especially Flash and Superboy Prime

>>149484133 (OP)
Is that how he usually looked like? He needs some trunks or something, I don't like how naked he looks.
>>149484137
he cute tho
>>149484552
Cause no one's ever truly gone.
Also, let's be real, he's a popular character, and we haven't really had any modern stories with him as a good guy, he just sacrificed himself and touched some grass.
I wonder how that time away from comics affected him, he seems happier now.

>>149484593
He's unkillable and kept his powers.

>>149484601
Yu can never escape.

>>149484133 (OP)
Gimme a summary. Last i saw he was back on earth prime after death metal

>>149484660
He took a break from comics, but like any true comics nerd, he's now back.

>>149484597
>but yeah hes probably here right now....
Whaaat??? Naaaaaaaah...
>but a about na year ago i think he set up a bot
I wrote my bot script in early October, interestingly about a week before the site-wide implementation of the 900 second timer

>>149484137
I always knew he was a meta commentary, but they're really turning him into DC's Gwenpool.

>>149484451
This is Williamson.
Also surprised it took this long to leak.

>>149484660
>>149484682
Waiiiiiit a minute......I know why he's back. This is because Time Trapper is back, whom we now know is a future Doomsday. Superboy Prime at one point had Time Trapper powers. Is this like a meta power thing?

>>149484691
I do ship these guys pretty hard. Would listen to their podcast/watch their show

>>149484133 (OP)
>Terry and Superboy meet
Good Lord, it's going to be kino.

>>149484691
>>149484691
>Gwenpool
ew

>>149484702
Probably, but the Time Trapper is kinda constantly changing identities, I know he was also Cosmic Boy at some point.

qrd on superboy prime? If such a thing is even possible

>>149484137
>second bubble isn't just "aint that a bitch and a half"
I sleep

>>149484743
hes like superman but hes a boy and has weird golden armor pipes with monitor energy or something

>>149484743
Nah more like...

>>149484743
He's gonna mess around and play vidya with Gwenpool once the DC/Marvel crossover happens. They'll vent about crisis events and sit it out.

>>149484617
>>149484646
Okay. Why has nobody doomed Superboy Prime to Limbo (specifically the one where forgotten characters go)?

>>149484133 (OP)
I always imagine Superboy Prime being voiced by JYB. JYB would be a fantastic fit for Prime especially when he yells or talks shit.

>>149484743
Superboy Prime is from Earth Prime, essentially our world. An adopted boy that was named Clark, and fell in love with comics, namely Superman. He dressed like Superman for a Halloween, wished upon a comet, and then found himself with powers and thrown into the Earth 1 DC canon. Superman found him, called him Superboy, and then things devolved. As you can imagine a person from our world would have meta knowledge and eventual frustration dealing with comic bullshit. He started seeing the ineffectiveness of heroes in this world, and grew jaded/cynical given that everything to him was fictional and a constant narrative cycle. So he just became a dick, frustrated that his dream became a prison, stuck in this bullshit world.

Last we saw of him he was in Death Metal fighting Batman Who Laughs with the heroes. He punched reality (again), found himself home, and was at peace, putting down comics to hang out with his girlfriend that he missed

HE TOUCHED GRASS
HE HAD HIS LIFE BACK
WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO HIM

>>149484743
Originally he was a guy named Clark Kent after Clark Kent from the comics, but he was also the Kal-El of his universe, which was Earth Prime, supposed to be the "real" world.
He was a nice guy for a while, and then Crisis on Infinite Earths just destroyed his universe, so he stayed in some dimension where he saw the New Earth develop, along with the original Kal-L and Lois, and Alexander Luthor Jr. from Earth-3.
Because New Earth was different and edgy, he grew to hate it, and with the help of Alexander, tried to bring the old wholesome Earths back, becoming a villain.
It was around that time that they turned him into a parody of comic book nerds, always wanting things to go back to how they were when he was young.
Eventually, a bunch of shit happened that doesn't really matter, he did some bad stuff, he killed some titans, he killed someone to death, etc.
What matters is that after a reboot and a deboot, he was back as a prisoner in the Rock of Eternity. He escaped, did some bad stuff, which eventually culminated in Death Metal.
Basically he teamed up with Batkek to make his perfect Earth, but Wondy said that Superman wouldn't do that, so he joined the good guys, beat up Batkek, and ended up back in his original Prime Earth reality.
He put down his comics, and then went out with his gf.

>>149484133 (OP)

>>149484133 (OP)
Look I love Prime, so stop fucking undoing his character development. He had a happy ending!

>>149484803
>put into a cell on oa
>sent to the future
>sent back to his world
>stuck in the source wall
>sent back to his world again
He's also able to come back from anything.

>>149484841
Clearly this is his character development, he seems happy.

>>149484691
Ironically, I wanted Gwenpool to be Marvel's Prime. I'm cool with him being a hero now though

>>149484133 (OP)
>do whatever you want in your world with your powers and nobody can do anything to stop you
OR
>go back to comic universe with powers and do whatever you want because nobody can stop you

Question: How many characters have knowledge of pre-New 52 and other Crisis events? Superboy Prime obviously does, but that's partly due to his meta nature. Wasn't Power Girl one of the rare few who remembers? Barry Allen too?
>>149484859
Give it time

why does he seem naked

>>149484880
Doesn't Psycho Pirate also remember. Wasn't that the whole deal with The Button storyline?

>>149484133 (OP)
>>149484137
He looks happy to be here so obviously he's come back of his own accord, no more universe destruction at least.

>>149484841

>>149484880
I kinda just assume Superman knows everything because he's the center of the univese. Not that it really matters since Crisis continuity is completely fucked

Since Marvel and DC are open to crossovers, Prime and Gwenpool will make history by becoming the first crossover romance!

>>149484940
>Prime and Gwenpool will make history by becoming the first crossover romance!
Bro your Jubilee and Robin?

>>149484133 (OP)
>>149484137
Well this is something.

>>149484929
Well there was that time during Rebirth when Mxyzptlk merged Superman with his New 52 memories. Oh hey, that's another, Mister Mxyzptlk. Though I suppose that's cheating with meta characters such as imps. Jonnie DC too. What about Donna Troy?

>>149484940
That is not even close to being true you fag.

>>149484950
>Jubilee
Spit roasted by muggas in Krakoa
>Robin
Tim Drake, so he's gay.

>>149484916
i loved multiverse but after stewing on it, it really is just another "morrison is the god and you are the main character" shit

>>149484812
>found himself home, and was at peace, putting down comics to hang out with his girlfriend that he missed
So that's the context for that pic. Damn it's kino.

>>149484818
You know, it's like an unintentional meta commentary. Companies calling nerds toxic or obsessed, but still needing them to survive so they can't double down on doing that. Life imitates... "art"

>>149484979
See you next year for the Marvel/DC Incursion event, stupid faggot!

>>149484979
I think anon doesn't realise just how many Marvel and DC crossovers there are

>>149484880
With Infinite Frontier, everyone learns that there are multiple alternate timelines in that even civilians are aware. So basically everyone is aware of their lives and world being retconned multiple times.

>Gwenpoolfags trying to be relevant again

>>149485018
isnt there literally a print company that they both own together
AAU or whatever its called

>>149484718
Fuck off Gwenshitter

>>149484133 (OP)
Fuck this asshole. He killed Pantha while having a damn temper tantrum.

>>149485070
She's back now.

>>149485070
Fuck Pantha, she's fine now, Risk literally never recovered.
Of course, I blame Johns for that, but still.

I know officially he's called "Superboy-Prime", but I wish we could ditch the hyphen for good.

>>149484719
>SBP knows about Batman Beyond
>he's actually a fan of Beyond and the old DCAU.
>"Yup, that's when superheroes used to be good."
>him and Terry become bros
>meanwhile Terry doesn't undertand why everyone hates Prime

>>149484133 (OP)
Where are his trunks?

Prime one-off in Death Metal was the only good thing in that shit event. Best comic dc put in years.

>>149484133 (OP)
>>149484137
NOOOO you where out Clark, you won Clark you didn't need to come back Clark.

>>149484767
AHHHHH NOT THE ROLLER COASTERS AND SWIM PARKS

>>149484133 (OP)
>>149484137
>Legion of Super-Heroes centric event with Superboy Prime
Please no. DC, useless drooling retards that they are, can't even get the basic idea of a space opera with superheroes right. Don't bring this fucking guy into it as well.

>>149484133 (OP)
Thought it was going to be a new Dobson comic, dammit

>>149484133 (OP)
>>149484137
FUCK
OFF
NOT EVEN 5 YEARS FOR MY BRO TO RELAX

>>149484204
He had closure like three different times already, this is DC you'll get this shit again.

>>149484859
>I'm cool with him being a hero now though
He was a hero to begin with.

>>149484691
Prime was unironically the best response
prime - anti escapism , wants to be back to his own world
gwenpool - pro escapism. Rejects reality
Also
>it happened again

>>149484880
>How many characters have knowledge of pre-New 52 and other Crisis events?
after dark crisis everyone remembers stuff from all the timelines.

>>149486217
So Darkseid remembers the anti-life equation?

>>149486248
He's been over it for a while now.

I've never been able to wrap my head around this character or DC's autistic timeline and multiverse bullshit. It just gets more and more confusing.

>>149484133 (OP)
>>149484137
At least he isn't being a villain from the looks of it, maybe they'll have him be DC's Gwenpool.

>>149484830
>beat up Batkek
A Superman beating Batman? He sounds based

>>149484175
This

>>149484133 (OP)
>>149484137
This faggot will turn into Superman's Vegeta and I'm fine with it.

>>149484691
Cute couple.

>>149484881
Because his outfit really need some kind of belt

>>149484175
>it was the only good thing to come out of death metal

>>149484133 (OP)
>>149484137

What's his motive? He seems awfully too happy?

With Deadpool/Batman crossover, will we finally get Prime/Gwenpool crossover?

>>149484653
fuck off eggboy

>>149484635
That tie-in had no fucking right being this good...

>>149484133 (OP)
He had the perfect ending

>>149484175
>geoff Johns tells you you’re a loser and need to touch grass
>you think this is a good thing

>>149484133 (OP)
>>149484137
Pass. He had a good closure after many, many years. Nothing good will come out of this, unless it's a Superboy Prime plucked out of the time he spent wandering through the multiverse before punching Batkek and returning to his own place. I can't trust anyone in the present to treat his character well. Something ass is going to happen and undo the lead up to Prime Time that was amazing to read. Like whatever the fuck happened to that golden Superman.
Why would he WANT to be back anyway? He roamed the multiverse for a way back to his world.

>>149488006
Damn right. I don't have it right now but the "I can't figure out what's going on" panel is always good. Batkek and Perpetua's fight was hilarious, I get that he was supposed to be holding a universe and hitting her with it but visually it looks funny. Him distancing himself from the other Supers and villains recruited for the fight with only Krypto being the only good dog beside him. God, the thread that day was fucking magical

>>149484133 (OP)
>>149484137
based. he needs to kill all the redditors that glazed James Gunn's SuperShit.

>>149484847
But will come back from being gay ?

>>149487973
alright what else was good about death metal? silhouette batman? penguin's rock?

>>149488349
both things can be true

>>149484137
>>149484133 (OP)
Oh, fuck off. His ending was perfect.

>>149484137
>>149484133 (OP)
just in time to piss of REAL DC Comics fans like me or geoff johns.

>>149484176
What this guy up there said.

>>149484506
Virgo Peridot?

>>149484175
Anyone who's still reading DC after that issue deserves to suffer.

>>149484133 (OP)
FUUUUU

-
>>149484137
Well it could be worse.

>>149484979
Disney is buying Warner and DC

>>149487991
JL Avengers is still canon, as ACCESS, remember that, and this happened when the universes were merged in said event.

>>149488349
Congratulations, you're exactly the type of comic reader Johns was speaking to.

>>149484803
He has fans. And he's a damaged character and women brained writers think they can fix him.

>>149484133 (OP)
>>149484137
I don't know the context of this, but I hope from the bottom of my heart that he's seething HARD behind that (presumably) fake smile of his over being involved in capeshit shenanigans again.

>>149484618
>lets publish a comic about how our customers don't need comics and a character who is evil because he buys our product

I will never understand this

Based.

>>149490653
Hey, it worked, I haven't really touched comics since Death Metal wrapped up. I am down to come back recently though, what comics in mainline universe DC would you guys recommend?

well this isn't ideal but at least he's called Superboy-Prime again and not Superman-Prime

I just want them to meet at last

>>149490685
Aquaman, Batman and Robin Year One, Superman, Supergirl, Justice League Unlimited, and Batman Dark Patterns

>>149490653
That comic read like Johns was sick to death of DC comics and especially hated Deathmetal.

>>149490689
That name has always been stupid to me because even during Infinite Crisis, they were stretching the hell out of the word "boy". Prime is drawn like a grown man in all of his appearances.

>>149491454
He seems younger actually.

>>149491454
I think they were afraid of making it look to the casual observer that Superman wasn't the actual "main" Superman.

>>149490802
wait...
shes kidding right?

He was always coming back

>>149484133 (OP)
What happen to Superboy-Prime's dick? With an outfit that tight and no bulge present, did Superboy-Prime lose his dick?

>>149484133 (OP)

bro.....

>>149484133 (OP)
>>149484137
He was always coming back reread the last page of his last appearance

>>149491539
Funny that they retconned this.

>>149493272
Superboy Prime being a hero, or Superboy Prime being immune to red sunlight? You're gonna have to be more specific because there's more than one retcon.

>>149493513
Red sunlight. SBP's turn to villainy isn't really a retcon since it was part of the plot.
I don't remember any part of either crisis event going off and revoking his immunity as part of the plot.

>>149493543
I thought he was still vulnerable to red sunlight, wasn't that how he lost in Infinite Crisis?

>>149493683
>wasn't that how he lost in Infinite Crisis?
Yes, but as >>149491539 points out, prime shouldn't have had a red sunlight vulnerability.

>>149493714
Oh I misread it nevermind.

>>149488258
>WELL MAYBE THE SOTRY ISN'T OVER

>>149484879

>>149484137
>>149484133 (OP)
Okay, I'm in

>>149486248
It's one of those things where they realized their "All Darkseid's are canonically just...avatars, kinda sorta maybe but not really" thing meant that he'd learned the Anti-Life equation and gotten the absolute fuck beaten out of him regardless and would remember that like 4826723 times, so they just kinda gave up on it.

I will admit that the one kino idea Johns had was making SBP the idol of the Legion of Super-Villains
