Adventures With Superboy-Prime

Looking in on Superboy-Prime (the Superboy from an alternate world called Earth-Prime where super heroes were characters in comic book, taken away after the end of the Crisis On Infinite Earths, only to return, with a psychopathic rage and murdering many heroes including Titans and Bloodlines heroes)....here, in Adventure Comics #4 and #5 (January and February, 2010, with covers by Jerry Ordway, with variants by Francis Manapul as #507 and #508)...

...this Clark Kent was forced to face some of those he killed, brought back as Black Lanterns, with Alexander Luthor Jr. leading the charge (and these stories might also have been his step towards redemption).

Plus back up stories with the Black Witch (Mysa, the former White Witch of the Legion of Super-Heroes), and Superboy/Kon-El as well.

Remembering Artist Carmine Infantino

Remembering artist Carmine Infantino on his birthday (May 24, 1925 - April 24, 2013) with the end run of his covers for the Flash, covering the trial of the Flash.  

The Flash was on trial for murdering the Reverse Flash....and, as the powers that be at DC decided Barry's fate in the upcoming Crisis (to end the title), instead of starting a new story with the Flash, the trial just seemed to go on forever....
