i voted YAY because i dont find him as annoying as other people may think he is. i only read him in crisis IC and part of sinestro corps war but i find him so fascinating. like the murdering version of superman we dont get to see.
He seems to annoy me for some unknown reason like he is Bendis.
I voted Awesome because I love the fact that he annoys fanboys to no end. Reminds me of someone I know.
J.
I voted AWESOME for the same reason 🙂
I voted SuperDork but there should be a MEH choice. I would have chosen that.
I don’t find anymore dislikable than Conner Kent. In fact Conner Kent annoys me alot more.
i did like him for an issue and half of legion on 3 worlds then honeymoon over
he is one of those one it tops twice it stops characters
I’m neutral on Superboy-Prime so I voted “who’s that”.
Adventure Comics now is like an Assistant Editor Month issue. It is a great change of pace during a crossover that it has a very horror movie feel.
Half the time he’s the top answer half the time he’s the bottom.
I voted Superdork but i really like how he is just a fanboy. Maybe that’s what people hate him, they see too much of themselves in him.
plus i will never forgive him for PUNCHING jason todd back to life
Yeah agree, but it could’ve been worse he could have punched Vanilla Ice’s career back to life
To quote Rip Hunter: “Punching History. Please.”
I was ALRIGHT with his story in IC, after that he shouldn’t of been used again. Atleast not for a LONNGGG time. There is no fear factor to him anymore.
Also, I find Conner Kent to be HIGHLY annonying. I liked him during the Young Justice days, when he was just an offbeat character. Now, with his return he has become pointless. We all know Superman isn’t going anywhere, and Supergirl is his natural successor.
Actually to build on that, if Conner is to be around, HE should have taken Superman’s place during WoNK not Mon-El.
I think Prime works because he is such a polarizing figure. The best villians are the ones that invoke the strongest feelings. Love or Hate!!
Superboy Prime isn’t a Superdork.. yet! but he is getting there. he is starting to suffer from the early stages of what I call Chronic Borg Syndrome. It is a sometimes fatal, always debilitating condition that affects popular Sci-Fi and fantasy characters. The Borg were the first to suffer this condition, going from unstoppable,terror inducing villains that almost ending the Human race with a single Borg cube to being a bunch of Keystone Cops that couldn’t handle one Federation starship and it’s semi-competent crew(Voyager, not Enterprise, calm down trekkie geeks).
I guess what I am saying is Superby-Prime is best in small doses as a event villain, not a guy having a slap and tickle fight with Alexander Luthor in a comic store.

Not a big fan of Superboy Prime, but with that said he is a good foil for Superman and Big Blue ain’t exactly sportin’ Batman level rogues.
He’s a little shit, but a entertaining shit.
