Well this was a new take on Superboy. Sadly, like most Lobdell New52 stuff, this isn't very good.

So Superboy is, if you don't know, a clone of Superman. He is half human as well which makes him a different type of creature. However, the big change here is he has telekinesis too (I don't believe the original did). So after N.o.w.h.e.r.e. the company that made Superboy is in shambles after his break out a person called "Red" tries to control the young man. The next few issues are basically Superboy going around the DC universe finding his calling.

Good: The art is pretty solid. I also thought some moments with superboy were interesting if not very out of character. I give it leeway just because it's a new take.

Bad: The storyline jumps ALL over the place because it's doing two crossovers. His meeting with Supergirl makes no sense. His relationship with Rose is very odd. The idea of him being mostly a dickhead is annoying. Also the ending should have gotten me hyped but instead made me not want to read volume 2 right away.

Overall this was meh. It's not horrid but so many issues, dialog, pacing, story, made it kind of a forgettable experience. I might try volume 2 just to see if it improves but if not after that I'll probably drop this one.
