Written by Geoff Johns Art by Francis Manapul, co-feature art by Clayton Henry Covers by Francis Manapul It's the return of one of DC Comics' longest running books and one of its greatest modern-day heroes - Conner Kent! In our first heroic issue, Superboy can't wait to jump back into his life - but which life will it be? With a clarity he's never had before, Conner makes a beeline for the greatest place on Earth...Smallville? Plus, in the wake of FINAL CRISIS: LEGION OF THREE WORLDS, Starman heads off on an all-new mission in the present. And it's one that will not only impact Superboy, but the future of the DC Universe itself. Fortunately, the off-kilter Legionnaire won't be dong it alone! And in the upcoming months of ADVENTURE COMICS look for Lex Luthor! Brainiac! Lightning Lad! Superboy's pal Simple Simon! Sun Boy and Polar Boy! Ultra, the Multi Alien! Wonder Girl! Black Lantern Alexander Luthor! And many, many more new and familiar faces! Retailers please note: This issue will ship with two covers.
