Superboy #5
An oldie but a good one.
Man, I love how Kon-El was so ****ing cloak and daggers about wrecking people's shit.
"Surprise bitches, get the lube ready" is basically what I hear every time Kon-El makes an appearance. I would love see him run some wrestling promos on people as Dr. Psycho plays his theme.
It will be called "Centerhall getting handed his ass beat all day every day." Maybe too long but it will work for now.

They are loving him. His fts have been concrete. Iskander, I have all of Superboy showings. We can work together on a respect thread if you want.

Superboy, both of them, are a result of Superman getting freaky with Lois Lane in another period of time.
Kon-El is Jon Kent's technical clone. Not a literal copy as Harvest started from scratch when he made him. Grabbing Superman's DNA, and two other strands of DNA then mixing them together to make Kon-El. So, basically Kon-El is a test tube baby.
One of the DNA strands is probably Lois Lane's as Harvest wanted to make Kon-El like his adopted son Jon Kent. The other is probably Lex Luthor's DNA strand or maybe not. We know Lois Lane has a genetic predisposition to the meta-gene so when it's crossed with kryptonian DNA weird stuff happens. As noted by Harvest in Superboy #19. Kon-El was meant to be a weapon to be used against any and all meta-humans as well as Superman.
Then things getter weirder from then on.
After Kon-El's "death" in Krypton Returns he becomes a herald for the Oracle as seen in Teen Titans Annual #3.
Now he is back as of Superboy #33 and #34.
