Ok iv just read Countdown to Final Crisis, Volume 3. I know Prime is sent hurtlign through Space Time after his Universeal destroying match with Monarch, and afterwoods is brought to the 31st Century, and during legion of three worlds it is revealed that Prime himself is Time Trapper ( meanign he has power over time itself) what next?? what inbetween?? I havent yet read legion of thee worlds so i dont know what to think, i hear conner ( superboy) and prime fight again what happens next?? any theorys about how prime becomes the tiem trapper and if he is, and hes liek really old, woul he as time trapper be even more powerful as kryptonians seem to increase in power as they age...

DISCUSS =]

His only future is eventual death. There is already a Superman worthy of the name around. He's a murdering crybaby punk - DC is just stringing him out for a big exit somewhere.

Maybe superboy will kill him since he's returned

That'd be ironic.

Used intermittently SBP is one awesome kick-ass character...who didn't mark out when he was killing GL's left/right and center during Infinite Crisis??

BTW, Steverules_2, your avatar...where did you get that picture of my wife from???

I actually thought it made the Green Lanterns look weaker instead of SBP looking stronger.

keep em cummin

i cant see him dying whos gonan kill him?/ superman certainly couldnt for one it goes against everythign he stand for and two prime would kill him =P conner couldnt prime was more powerful than him during infinite crisis also proven, i really want to see there rematch in legion of three worlds though, i just wanan know...

..how does prime become tiem trapper, what does he do inbetween legion of 3 worlds and then...ahwtas happens to prime at the end of legion of 3 worls anyone??...

prime needs to die, and never come back. it seems like DC is digging very deep to find 'new' ideas for his character.

IC and SC were honestly all we needed of prime. subsequent issues have just been faltering his once badass character, imo.

I also liked him in Countdown.

Yeaah prime was cool in Coundown, hsi fight with monarch was cool, one thign i dotn get, monarch clamied his power was equal to the big bang..yet when he blew up he didnt even destroy earth 51 =/ just left it lifeless ( apart from that lil plant) whats up with thsi so called universe destroying??

L.O.L.

Apparently he's over on the DC discussion boards at the moment. Anyone want to find out where he lives and beat him down with baseball bats?

On second thought, no. Superman! I know you're reading this. You are the one true Superman, and I support your ascension to dominance. Remember me when you take your rightful place!

Kinda surprised Johns went 4th wall on us, but I lol'd.

fdog

That's awesome.

Well, he is good friends with Grant Morrison and it was a tie-in to an event that heavily contained metatextual stuff.

Prime should die and stay dead.

loved the end of LO3W. really funny, and great to see conner and bart make it home.

It actually reminded me of Morrison's failed 2-issue run on Authority, which puts them in the "real world" and The Doctor buys an Authority comic.

I was also hoping beyond hope that SBP would come onto KMC in the comic. That would've been all kinds of epic.

That's almost precisely what I was hoping when I saw him writing a post on a forum.

Johns has basically written Prime as "Imagine if the world's most annoying fanboy had absurd powers and ended up in the DCU."

It was epic.

Wow, that's a kick in the balls.

Isn't his whole background kinda fourth wall though? Since DC are apart of earth prime

That's alternate universe, not 4th wall. 4th wall is breaking the barrier between comics and the reader, like Deadpool regularly does since he knows he's in a comic book. SBP talking to us at the end brought that out, as did his fading into pencil lines

"Superboy Prime will appear in "Adventure Comics" #4-5"

i just read last issue of LO3W..thank god they didn't kill him..Prime is still alive and he'll be back..he always have and always will..

Very disappointed in Lo3W.

Superboy Prime should become the editor of DC comics on his earth and create havoc in the mainstream DC universe. That'd be an epic crossover...

you realise he couldn't do a worse job than dan "countdown was 52 done right" didio...

LO3W was such a disappointment. My god, could it have gone worse?

I think there's a photo on this site showing that SBP is in fact Quesada.

He did destroy earth. That plant was on another planet at the far end of the universe.

It could concentrated on that area with the same amount of power.

i liked the ending to LO3W, was funny and interesting. it can put SBP on the shelf long enuff for him to be used in a good way later on. the only problem i have is all the villians and legion heroes and his kill count was so low.. he was getting his ass kicked.. superboy shouldnt have lasted that long agasint SBP.. Yat if anything should of been the one to hold him off long enough for the ending. =/ all that cannon fodder around. he hardly lived up to his 'i kill you!' attitude/rep.

seeing him just get pissed and start killing both heroes and villians alike just cuz he can would of seem more on point for him. he had a reason to play along with the sinestro corp, here i didnt really see it. lol.

if anyone disagrees or thinks i need things explained to me feel free to share.

Are you sure? I'm almost certain it shows earth being destroyed in the comic. And the location of the plant was never stated, so IMO it makes more sense to assume it was some planet on the other side of the universe.

He was on Earth at the time.

Guess he will be involved with the Black Ring. His going to be chasing them.

aww fck.

Him being turned into Kon-El (Superboy's villain) is pretty damn stupid and I hope that's not the case. I was kind of 'Okay, this is his last stand, let him be in a spotlight a bit' when he did very good in Infinite Crisis against him, but LO3W came out and now this.

(the image is from Adventure Comics, where Superboy appears for 2 issues)

By the look of this cover, Prime seems to be dead

I honestly wish he'd been killed off in Sinestro Corps War, when that Guardian sacrificed himself to remove Superboy Prime.

Now I'm getting a little bored of him. He made a nice change of pace from the usually DC villain, but I just want him to die now.....maybe he could be attacked by Black Lantern's Alex Luthor and Kal-L

Also, if that's supposed to be Black Lantern, Alex Luthor, shouldn't his face be deformed from the Joker attack?

hell, i was even fine with his appearances during countdown - but Lo3W was just WAY too much. i mean, had DC stopped using prime after countdown, at least his 'uberness' would've been ensured. instead, he just HAD to be used in Lo3W

DC just needs to realize that prime has almost no character depth. he isn't a 'frequent use' character.
