I should probably stuff this review with spoilers, because a month from now, I'm gonna see this book at the library and wonder if I read it and maybe borrow it again.

The illustration has some style, but the storytelling is inconsistent, and the coloring fell flat. The script has moments, but it doesn't build anything memorable or fresh. The Super-writers have really been beating the "hero inspires hope" thing over the head as hard as possible lately. And, oh look, Conner has his own Cyborg-Super rival now (the second they introduced the another clone version of him I sprained both eyes rolling them - don't we already have Match?).

Just drop the whole "universe got rewritten without me" angle (DC needs to stop trying to fit everything into "continuity," because it becomes an endless loop of climbing up its own ass) and tell a good story! Hell, just collect the original Karl Kesel-Tom Grummett SUPERBOY run. I'd love to put that on my bookshelf!
