I was very leery of the Superman family of books after reading the abomination that was Action Comics. But Superboy was a terrific read. It neatly washed away the convoluted mess that Superboy's origins (yes, plural) had become over the years, and started fresh. They left you with enough questions of how he came to be to get you wanting to read more. The tie-in to the new Teen Titans book was set up, and they possibly threw in Caitlin Fairchild from Gen13 in a whole new way. The art could use some improving. In no way horrible, just nothing that stands out. But not enough to detract from the overall enjoyment of reading the book. Let's hope Supergirl is as well done.
