Where did you find the link? :s: Title: Re: superboy prime's new costume? Post by: Dial H For Hero on January 16, 2006, 04:18:23 PM I saw the same image on the DC website. Someone remarked that this costume has elements of the Anti-Monitor's armor, perhaps a tip-off of who the real bad guy is in Infinite Crisis. Who knows?

Post by: dto on January 17, 2006, 02:10:16 AM :cry: This picture tends to confirm my worst fears ever since I learned that Superboy-Prime had returned -- DC turned him into an Anakin Skywalker. :evil:
I really LIKED that enthusiastic kid with an oddball sense of humor back in 1985. After seeing what's in store for Superboy-Prime in Infinite Crisis, I can't look at DC Comics Presents #87 the same way again. :( Thank Rao for Kurt Busiek's "Superman: Secret Identity" -- at least there's at least ONE "Superboy-Prime" that has (so far) escaped the corruption that has blackened the ENTIRE DC Universe. (Even CAPTAIN CARROT wasn't immune according to a recent Teen Titans story -- is NOTHING "pure and innocent" anymore? Or are they all crammed in that infamous refrigerator somewhere?) :cry: Title: Re: superboy prime's new costume?

Something else I've seen recently is that they've turned JAck Kirby's classic OMAC characterm beloved by millions, into a robot with KNIVES INSTEAD OF HANDS!!!! Crisis is awesome! Title: Re: superboy prime's new costume? Post by: Genis Vell on January 18, 2006, 01:16:12 PM I completely agree with dto.
I hope Superboy Prime doesn't turn evil... I love that character. Oh, and that new costume is so ugly. Title: Re: superboy prime's new costume? Post by: TELLE on January 18, 2006, 09:48:50 PM You're kidding, right? It's an abomination.
(I'm assuming the t1000 is the Omac robot.) Title: Re: superboy prime's new costume? Post by: DoctorZero on January 21, 2006, 09:12:21 AM This would mean then that Superboy Prime escapes from the Speed Force?

I don't understand. Why is the shredd cape a tip off that it's a joke? (I don't remember a lot of the details for Superboy Prime. That was just a Halloween costume or something, wasn't it?)Quote from: "sikkbones" i don't think the cape and the S logo will be there in the final version. I had seen that on the DC Direct site, but didn't notice until reading your post that the "S" doesn't look like it was actually a part of the figure. It does look like it was added to the pic. That's odd.Title: Re: superboy prime's new costume? Post by: chris6909 on February 08, 2006, 08:10:01 AM :roll: you gotta be kiddin..........right??????
