Tactile telekinesis?

What the hell is Tactile telekinesis? I keep reading Superboy will defeat this person or that person because of his tactile telekinesis.

Imagine Jean Grey-level TK. Except you have to TOUCH the said object for anything to happen.

Superboy doesn't really have tactile telekinesis these days. It's more like plain ol' TK with strokes, forcefields, and forcebeams.

Yes and superboy from the future teen titans is the shizzle! TK best general power around.

Thanks...seems kinda weak compared to actual TK.

Yea, I think it was a way to give Superboy powers like Superman while making him just a little different.

Considering what the "tele-" in telekinesis means, "tactile telekinesis" is actually a contradiction in terms.
