I really hope that in this particular story, Superboy-Prime dies and stays dead. I really hope he doesn't make it into the relaunch.

I disagree. It'd be more interesting if he just liquidated the current team (since they're getting rebooted anyway).

It'd be interesting if Prime went against the "script" and just vaporized the Teen Titans. The End.

I can't recall this being done before, where the antagonist simply destroys the team (without being beaten or stopped) and the book ends. DC has a chance here to do something non-cliche.

I doubt it'll happen, but it would be cool.

That's the stupidest idea ever, I hate this 4th wall IM IN A COMIC BOOK CRAP. Not to play fanboy but that's such a marvel-esque, Deadpool plot. No one likes Superboy-Prime, he's a whiny ass that destroys time and space. He was the worst part of Blackest Night and should of been killed off in the Sinestro Corp's War but probably won't since for some reason Geoff Johns is on his nuts.

I'd actually love to see Prime going all meta on them, and constantly remind them how useless their efforts are, since they'll be rebooted anyways

"Please don't kill Superboy-Prime. He is an interesting character with lotsa potentials. He's just misunderstood!" - Superboy Prime's fans

"As long as Geoff John and whiny internet fanboys alive, he shall be alive!" - The Power That Be at DC.

Wow. Settle down, guys. I think that Prime's whiny attitude and childish drive are what make him a good and pretty original villain. I was made even more excited when he was one of the focal villains in Legion of 3 Worlds. I'm not buying TT right now and since I'm not getting anything else coming out tomorrow, I'm considering getting this, being the last storyline before "September" and since I haven't really sampled much Krul writing.

[Free-Man]

A shame. They'd given him a good send-off and happy(ish) ending in Blackest Night, and yet now he's surely back to villainy and bitching about how badly the DCU guys suck.

I love reading anything about Superboy Prime. Definitely one of the more original villains to come about in the DCU. Especially when he was revealed as a crazy fanboy yelling at DC. So funny.

I agree with the one poster above, I loved Superman Prime in Legion of Three worlds. Watching him destroy everything was really fun to read. I've never cheered on a villain like that before.

I'm excited that he's back, but I'm skeptical because it seems like they ignored Blackest Night which provided some great hope for the guy. Especially with him just appearing on Earth with his suit on through the black hole. It doesn't really make any sense, but whatever.

The preview pages make me worried that it's not an extension of his story to provide a proper finish (since I think Prime won't exist in September), but instead just as a way to provide a fantastic finish for the Teen Titans.

The solicits say he's bringing a legion of doom in this story arc which should be an epic finish. Prime deserved a real ending though, not as a villain.... Although him and his legion of doom killing all the Teen Titans would be an interesting finish. If done correctly, I would love it.

I've always enjoyed Superboy Prime and even though this does seem to be going against what happened in Blackest Night, I'm still excited to see what happens!

[Wilder Midnight]

the preview makes me look forward to the reboot.

I'll be cheering for this to happen too!

Wonder Man kind of ended like this, with him dying and the book suddenly ending without warning. I think Marvel even put out fake solicits for his book too.
