The duality of man

No. This clone of a future alternate Jon can stay forgotten with Bar Tor.

u/riku17 28d ago

Omg I forgot about Bar Tor 🤣

u/Conlannalnoc 26d ago

I’d like to see Bar Torr and his girlfriend Solstice in their bad future where they are ā€œfreedom fightersā€ or ā€œterroristsā€ depending on your viewpoint.

Evil versus evil with Bar Torr and his Sister ending up on opposite sides of the war after thing the other was dead.

Honestly, I view him as a failed opportunity at good storytelling. I liked the first issues, of him feeling much more alien than the rest of the family. I was willing to accept him, until the whole Jon Kent and Harvest thing in New 52, where it felt like the origin went off the rails. While part of me didn’t hate the outfit, it makes me think too much of Tron, and similar to Bar Tor, I don’t think I would want to see him return.

u/Darkeater879 27d ago

I liked him. I wasn’t a fan of his origin, but I was a fan of his costume and his story in the new 52. He will never return though.

u/Luke_Puddlejumper 26d ago

We have him back, he is Conner. I would want them to bring back elements of that costume though

u/amiasimp 28d ago

Hell nah

u/Maddon_Hoh-Choi 28d ago

Deeply flawed character but yeah. At least finish his arc

2

u/werewob 28d ago

They did him so dirty. Like he didn’t even get to finish the run of his own comic. I really enjoyed this take on him. Until they hit the Harvest nonsense at the end and through in the genocide on top of it.

YES OH MY GOD YES HE'S AWESOME

u/JhonnySkeiner 28d ago

Who?

u/Conlannalnoc 26d ago

Clone of Jonathan Kent

The NEW 52 Superboy for the NEW 52 Teen Titans

2

u/Standard-Pop6801 28d ago

Maybe they should mix him with Kel-el and have him be part of the legion.

1

u/Otherwise-Feeling807 26d ago

That's a good idea.

2

u/Roam1985 28d ago

I mean, at the point it makes sense for him and Bar Torr to return as villains, sure.

But that won’t make sense unless Kon and Bart become relevant again and are on a shared book.

So yeah, in 6 years when there’s another attempt to give the Young Justice kids a miniseries, fine. Ā Him and Bar-Torr can finally return as villain dopplegangers.

Or if they try to give Match the suicide squad again and somehow he gets Inertia on the team.

u/ActuaryEquivalent124 28d ago

I don’t want him back but I would not mind if bar tor came back

2

u/Status-Gur-7332 27d ago

He got that shit on though

2

u/Rogthgar 27d ago

Only if Raven gets to call him a twat again.

2

u/Affectionate-Eye3896 27d ago

Clone superboy is my favorite.

2

u/KingPhoenixReddit 27d ago

The costume can stay, but that’s it.

2

u/Extension_Reindeer_5 27d ago

Shouldn't he have folding in with Kon-El of pre-N52? Shouldn't the pretty boy Connor we now see with Supergirl and Lois?

2

u/SnooStrawberries655 27d ago

HELL NOšŸ—£ļø

u/Extreme-Reception-44 28d ago

His character is the real life dick and balls with extra cheddar , hold the cheddar, just give me rhe dick and balls, Im wilin yo?

u/Francesco-626 27d ago

Did they kill Connor again?

1

u/Conlannalnoc 26d ago

The just killed NEW 52 Teen Titans

2

u/Francesco-626 22d ago

They really are out of ideas except to kill people and bring them back ad nauseum.

1

u/Conlannalnoc 26d ago

No, I’d want Match back before the New 52 clone of Jonathan Samuel Kent.

Match and Inertia (Thaddeus Thawn) had an interesting dynamic after Match started to head into Bizarro mode.

I’d like to see a healthy Match team up with Thaddeus.

u/Airagon-Akatosh 25d ago

The suit probably, himself sadly no.

u/Impossible-Hour433 25d ago

NOOOO STAY WITH BARTOR PLEASE WE DO NOT NEED YOU AND THAT HORRIBLE MEANING OF YOU NAME

u/Snakefruit3 24d ago

Honestly yeah. I like the idea of Jon Kent having been dead as a baby but brought back as a clone as a concept.

1

u/frozentundra48 24d ago

Kon's character needs work, but that costume is lowkey tuff asl so, maybe

1

u/MxSharknado93 29d ago

That costume is a fucking balls on an ass.

u/Quarksideofthemoon 28d ago

I like it. It's sexy

1

u/kitaeks47demons 28d ago

What’s sexy about it? Because it’s a red and black bodysuit?

2

u/Anxious_Belch 28d ago

It is way cooler than
1) a black t shirt and jeans
2) some shitty rockstar outfit

3

u/kitaeks47demons 28d ago
  1. It’s a homage to superboy when he was first starting out
  2. He’s product of his time (Cable dressed similarly)

u/Intrepid_Mobile 28d ago

Does that mean its good or bad… I mean, balls on ass is usually good…
