Just got into Superman, when is this guy introduced ? I've seen his name thrown around a lot on /co/ lately.

I love SBP. He's such a hype character, you never know what the fuck is going to happen when he's unleashed.
>>
>>83095939
Writers, I guess. He basically Superman without his weakness and moral code
>>
>>83095939
He's pretty much as strong as Superman and he's bad. The only difference between him and other villains of that power level is Johns actually lets him kill characters on a regular basis.
>>
>>83095810
Risk still got legs man. His legs are quite ripe and ready to go.
>>
>>83095806
Introduced in COIE, but it's not until Infinite Crisis (the lead-up, the event itself, and the aftermath) that he becomes the iconic symbol we know him as.
>>
>>83095939
He's the silver age version of Superboy before the various crises toned down everybody's crazed power level shenanigans. Back when Superman would pull planets on a chain across the galaxy or sneeze so hard he destroyed solar systems.

He's got Silver Age power levels while everyone else is running iron age/modern powersets.

He is a meme character.
There are tons of stronger characters but always job because the biggest badass has to be related to Superman somehow

He has the strength of silver age superman. Part of the reason he freaks the fuck out and says everyone is making him evil is when he comes into the other world and punches someone attacking him, they explode into meat instead of flying away unhurt.

Risk loses more limbs. Just stands there staring at Prime. Okay we'll call it a draw.

I've never heard of Risk outside of these two moments and two fights between Slade team and Titans, where Risk got fucked by Cyborg. This character is total shit. Fucking hilarious to see him so smug before he tries to punch SBP and AAAAAAAAARGH after that.

>>
>>83096218
He doesn't, really.

I don't know about you, but I don't walk around throwing doors open at full power, or putting my shirt on so hard it tears apart, even though I'm capable of this. There's a difference from casual baseline strength operation and using your capabilities.

He is normally operating at super strength, sure, but in relation to his day to day living, just from his personal experience. It only takes a few crushed sink knobs and doors lifted off the hinges before he understands his strength in relation to his setting. However, he was mad in this scene and lashing out with a real blow at someone jumping at him without thinking, which is why they turned into pulp.
>>
>>83096288
This reads like bad fan fiction

>>83096234
You had one job, Prime

One fucking job

Didn't Prime also capture Myxtlpix (sp?) and torture him too?

>>83096457
That was during Countdown to Final Crisis when he got a huge power boost.
>>
>>83096495

Yeah, when he was hiding out on the source wall or something like that

Just imagine being bullied for life of nerd name, finally get super-powers and girl, save the whole damn world and lose your own universe at once. When get traped in little place where you can only see how your beloved childhood heroes became corrapted and evil.
I'm not suprise he began this bloody rampage

If I wanted to Read about evil Superboy Prime where would I start?

>read the original Crisis first.
What's the original crisis?
>>
So is anything to him other than power level? Seems the only thing you people care about him
>>
>>83096880
Crisis on Infinite Earths. And whatever you do, don't read the Teen Titans issue that features him.

>>83096906
He's an boy who could have been a promising more powerful version of Superman who later became disillusioned and became a murderous whiny piece of shit.

>And whatever you do, don't read the Teen Titans issue that features him.

>>83097079
Ignores everything that happened to him in Blackest Night and makes him job like you've never seen a Superman job before.

>I'm not going to get too hype off this shit.
Sinestro's got a statue in the back, SBP's flexing in the sun but he doesn't want the humans to see him lose his chill.
And then come Ion Sodam Yat vs SPB he's leaning in for a good view like "DIS GUN B GOOD!"

Sinestro War was some good shit all around.

Why SBP don't use superspeed to catch Bart? Why is he even scared? He is invincible, Flash can't do shit. I know that speedsters is faster than supermans, but still. Well, i think logic doesnt work with Prime anyway.

This is Prime, who didn't do anything when two Superman were bullrushing him through space because he thought they couldn't do shit.

Bart is faster
>He is invincible, Flash can't do shit
The Flashes trapped him in the speedforce for some time. That made him very afraid of speedsters

Well, two Supes looks like more dangerous than kid-flash.
>>83097785
Yeah, I know about that. I've read all big DC events. I mean, it took 3 speedsters two lock him nad he've gotten out. Now there is only Bart and bunch of useless kids who are like bags for SBP. During Sinestro war it took ALL damn Earth's heroes to just break his armor. Legion won just cuz "Trapper" was dumb enough to reveal his identity.

As far as we know, he's still stuck to the Source Wall, so all we need is for someone to free him so that he can come back and proclaim that Rebirth sucks and kill some characters from the New 52 nobody cares about.

Is it weird that I've thought up this idea before? The idea of a character realizes he or she is a character and all the bad things that happened to them happened simply for the plot or to give them a grim backstory. I'm don't mean to say I'm a genius or any high horse shit like that, only that this is a monkeys-on-typewriters-works-of-shakespeare type deal.

I unironically ironically love Superboy-Prime. He was entertaining for a whiny teenager that basically viewed the main universe as fiction compared to his own. I know he was basically the poster boy of that terrible 2000s era grimdark edginess that comics had at the time, but the fact that there was a streak of irony that went into his writing over time actually made a funny and entertaining villain out of him.

God superman is such a fucking stupid character. I know people will go "oh he must not read superman" or "he just doesn't get the character" but God...he's just a dumb fucking character to have running around at the forefront of dc super hero shit. He's been in great inspiring stories but when I see supes and alt supes and supe clones. Listen either superman is the ultimate powerhouse or he's just slightly more strong than the next guy. Either stop propping him up as the supreme being or acknowledge it makes no sense for anyone else to fucking be around him. Because everyone around a superman level being would simply be ripped the fuck apart as he fought.
