According to Schoolhouse Rock:

Adjectives are words you use to really describe things,
Adjectives are often used to help us compare things,


So: Next time you go on a trip,
Remember this little tip:
The minute you get back,
They'll ask you this and that,
You can describe people, places and things...
Simply unpack your adjectives.
You can do it with adjectives.
Tell them 'bout it with adjectives.
You can shout it with adjectives.

Thanks for that blast from the past, Quis. I don't really remember that one. I do remember the conjunction junction one though.

Geoff Johns re-introduced Rainbow Girl for a reason surely? I'm sure she will play a part in Lo3W

I'm betting he somehow regains his powers and self-confidence just in time to go down in a blaze of glory, sacrificing himself for the good of all.

Let's see. Sun Boy was forced to use his powers to turn Earth's yellow sun to red during the Action arc. Superboy Prime's only real weakness is a red sun (as emphasized by the GL ring in issue 2).

Hmmm....

He seems pretty powerless right now, although that is logical thinking. Man, I hope you're wrong. Despite all his character faults, I've always liked Dirk as a hero.

I agree. He's been down for too long in too many versions now. It seems a little too obvious to make the "bad boy" of the legion the target this long.

'course, i don't understand or like Giffen's intense desire to kill KK all the time, either.

He just has a problem with "Super Karate." As opposed to, say, "dreaming" or "matter-eating" or "bouncing" or someone who splits in two (or three) and otherwise has no real power other than surprise and basic hand to hand combat, or someone/thing who goes "poop-a-doop." (Sorry, no offense Quis.)

I just think he's jealous. I think if we looked way back into KG's past, we'll see a scrawny kid who couldn't hack it in karate class. Or not.

I'll have to get my husband to take me comic buying tonight!

It WOULD be kind of a nice redemption for Sun Boy to die a hero this time
We really haven't seen much of him since the Giffen era.

I could see he AND Rainbow Girl working together somehow to defeat Superboy-Prime.
