This is the perfect end for Superboy Prime, and the one reason i tolerate Dark Nights Metal, because this end is the best redemption and finale for the character... If they ever use him again, specially as a villain, I'll fucking riot.

The thing about Superboy Prime killing heroes is that, he is right, they’ll come back in the end. He understands that unlike his world, the comic world will never truly change outside of the regular DC reboot.

It’s so sad how that Superboy prime is seen as a villain even though he could have been one of the greatest heroes because he reads DC comics so he would have a lot of knowledge on the Superheroes and villains. Superboy prime is overpowered. Being able to defeat the Darkest knight. I love how he was reading his own death that was unexpected.

Same here. Everybody needs a Krypto in their corner. What a wonderful redemption. I haven't bought a comic in years but I would buy every issue of a GeoffJohns "Superboy-Prime: Rebirth"

Geoff Johns just casually dropped one of the best superman stories as tie-in of a stupid event.

That smile on his face when he lifts that car, Hope returns!

I had mixed feeling about the death metal run but I’m glad they redeemed superboy prime in some ways because he was always such a tragic story. And it’s good to see him used as a way to finally defeat someone who is so powerful since he is usually unbeatable. I really liked this and the way you tell the story really emphasizes it. Great video man 👍🏽

I swear to Christ, even as a one shot, this should be superboy prime's last issue, retire him and make another version because this is perfect.

Superboy Prime is Literally one of my Favorite Characters. Just due to the Fact he’s a meta representation of every fans dream. He’s also OP as Sh**

Im glad DC did Prime justice, even if is temporary. One of my favorite over powered characters

Let's not forget either that he punched the shit out of perpetua, and all it did was cause another retcon.

Superboy Prime is pretty awesome dc character. “Make a wish, Laurie!”

Ah yes, the day that Superboy Prime finally became a Superman

He - like the original Superman in Infinite Crisis - were the only holdovers of the Pre-Crisis DC heroes, hence their power. Also his Krypton was destroyed by a supernova, it didn't explode. So no weaknesses, not even magic.

I read Death Metal few days ago and I really like the story. Superboy Prime from Earth 33( Earlier Earth-Prime) started defeating Darkest Knight. This is the best redemption I have ever read

God seeing superboy prime finally being happy is so awesome. I do hope one day we can see more of sueprboy prime actually having fun with his life.

It's good to see that prime was able to be the hero he always wanted to be. Sometimes, you can redeem yourself. That's why Clark, the original one, is always quick to give people a chance. He may not trust them, at first. He may be skeptical. But his symbol is the emblem of hope. Not just on krypton, but now in the DC comics Earth. People see it and feel safe, they lift their hearts with that feeling. Superboy Prime wants to be a hero. He lost his way. The road to hell is paved with good intentions, but the path to heaven is found when you never give up.

Seeing Superboy Prime redeem himself always reminds me of the quote May told Peter in Spiderman 2. "I believe there's a hero in all of us that keeps us honest, gives us strength, makes us noble, and finally allows us to die with pride, even though sometimes we have to be steady and give up the thing we want the most. Even our dreams." Prime did that, and as a result of his sacrificed he not only found redemption, but was also given a second chance.

Thanks for making this video. I never knew they gave him a redemption at the end so finding out like this was totally worth it.

Superboy-prime is the last and longest Pre-crisis Superman still in existence. Hes more potent and powerful then any modern alternate supermen from the multiverse and stronger than Kal-L. He is more interesting than one punch man. You cant delete Superboy-prime even if you tried to. He'll always go back on Earth-33 not the Pre-crisis Earth-Prime. Hes more interesting in personality wise and wipe the floor with you

I personally love Prime's insane murderous Arc leading into his Anti-Hero redemption Arc. A personal favorite character of mine, he's like DC's Kratos' only MORE savage. But he went from almost killing Krypto to earning Krypton's trust, love it

superboy primes story is truly touching, a young man whos tormented in a world thats not his own, dealing with forces beyond him and being warped by them, yet in the end he had his redemption

I really really like the character of Superboy Prime.. To me he represents those of us who are snubbed by people for the simple reason that they don't understand us. But deep down we wish we could change it all.... Superboy Prime is my HERO.✌👍

This is why I love comic books, especially in DC and Marvel, just seeing people try their hardest to fight for what's right no matter how cruel and unforgiving the world and pushing against all odds to protect what matters.

Superboy prime was punching holes in the timeline, which causes the reality warping affects to bring Jason Todd back to life.

Dark Knights: Metal is some of the most insanely high quality DC story-telling of all time. Unbelievably good writing.

kind of funny when krypto's standing over his dead body, he's in the exact same pose clark was in when he first died against doomsday

I hope that, should they ever use the character again, they keep Superboy Prime a hero, so they don't take away from this story. I mean, he'll probably end up being brought back as a villain, since that happened the last time he was supposed to be left alone.

You know when I read this the first time I thought that the darkest might have put Superboy into a Dreamworld coma. Now especially considering how his retcon punch works by creating waves when he punches something like a dimensional boundary or with your ability to similar to a dimensional boundary like when he punched his way out of the Phantom Zone, I think what happened was that he was hitting the darkest night with retcon punches literally Peewee all parts of his powers until he literally retconned himself out of the comic universe but because he still needed the power order to do so when he recognized himself back into his own Universe he brought his Kryptonian Powers with him. I think this is what Superman was hoping what happened during Legion of 3 worlds where he brought a future version of Superboy Prime to meet with his current / younger version. He hoped that the two of them to redeem each other even if they did so by punching each other out creating a paradox that could give them what they want by sending them back home.

Other supermen be like: *HOLY SHIT KRYPTO KILLED SUPERBOY PRIME!!!!* 😱😳

This was so wholesome and beautiful tbh. Almost made me tear no lie. Great work bro especially the ending. Well done. I sully watch ur shorts but ur long form content is boss. Glad I put all notifications on. Don't stop. Give us more dark stuff that turns out wholesome in the end.

Mad skills in your narration.

This is my favorite video about a comic book ever and it always will be. Had tears at the end the first time. Got choked up months later the second time. Its so good and you retell it well

Thing is, Superboy Prime wasn't bullied in his original backstory. This was added in Dark Metal. I think the writers got his story mixed up with the Clark Kent from Superman: Secret Identity.

Ayyy always love to see some respect given to Prime

YOO I DIDNT KNOW HE KEPT HIS POWERS it is nice that it took such a brutal version of superman to stop the greatest evil. And he finally has peace

another great video please dont stop making longer videos we love it

Peter griffin has been eating small bits of kryptonite since he was a kid, so that one day he could kill superman just by a FARTTTTTTT....💨

thats honestly a really cool story, also like the meta ending

wow that gave me chills.

A 4th wall breaker villain who won’t stop killing because they know it won’t matter is such a great idea.

Good narrative bro

I hope they don't bring him back after this. This was a perfect sendoff.

Really heartwarming story.

I think I can relate to him a bit. It's because I also have anger issues like him and I was bullied too. I also hurt many people in my life. He's not a villian for me. He's an unguided character for me.

Its literally a story that tells you to go outside and touch grass

Metal was a garbage macguffin fest but things turned out good for prime. I remember reading his first appearance as a small kid. I loved it, some kid wanted to be Superman just like me. And there broke him, but here I am a grown man and the wait was worth it. The kid finally got his pay out

It’s so beautiful

What if Superboy prime became the Injustice Superman?

I would love to see this version of Superboy Prime become like a god of the Multiverse with his knowledge of the DC universe he could become the ultimate paragon of Hope Truth and Justice fulfill his dream of becoming a hero and a Champion of Earth

His fight with sodam yat near the end of the yellow lantern war was super cool. I’m not sure I like this ending for superboy prime entirely cuz even if he did save the multiverse, he did some super fucked up shit over the years, even if he did go back to his world, this is a person who’s caused uncountable amounts of deaths and has seen unspeakable horrors. He can’t just go back to being his world’s superman after all of that.

If we hold him to that (very justifiable logic and standard), we would also have to hold other heroes to that standard. The lives that perished because they didn't kill (coughBatmancough) deserve to be answered for. They get a free pass though and for the most part I don't mind. Let Smallville have his peace for once I say.

@@MrOnepiece14 I do understand your logic. It’s one of the reasons I find modern Harley Quinn infuriating. But Batman I think is a pretty bad example because he puts his criminals through the Justice system. Also I wasn’t specific enough with this in my initial comment (so I may edit it in) but I don’t think he can go back to being that world’s superman because of the psychological damage he’s gone through. Although I do think that could be an interesting premise for the character definitely if they ever do something with him again. It would be cool to see him try to be a stand up guy while carrying the sins of what he’s done and the horrors he’s seen.

What issues is this story from? I am a big Superboy Prome fan and want to read this.

IF Super Boy Prime is from our real world, with respect to it being obviously fiction, and Superman is from Earth 1, which is not really our world, wouldn't that make our Earth not Earth Prime in the DC universe? I.e. our real world, our Earth is Earth no. 2745.. what ever in DC multiverse?

You know, I used to think superboy prime was evil… and he really isn’t. He lives in a world of fictional characters that he knows are fictional characters with zero stakes because death is a revolving door and they keep getting rebooted and reset… so, why would he care about what happens to them?

Farmer with Shotgun solos all with zero difficulty, but the ONLY reason he's kept alive is because he grows Mr. Popo's weed.
