First adventures are always continuations of the past, whether you see it or not. You think the Super Sons are finished after their last series, and yet here is another new number one. The story is far from over, as it is in both comics and life. There are so many great things on the horizon and the series takes place before them, it takes place in the past as that is what is needed for the future of the series. This takes place before Bendis’ Superman run and doing so ensures one last adventure before the series, and Superboy’s life is forever turned upside down. Superboy is young and has so much promise and adventures ahead of him; boy is in his name, which implies one day he will be a man. Before Superboy grows up, he has to go through what being a boy means. There is one great tale left for him before his life is forever changed and his next chapter comes.
