- Kara in SUPERGIRL #1I LOVE conspiracy theorists. They are like human versions of the cymbal clapping, dancing monkeys. No one takes them all that seriously and they get bored with them after about 10 minutes.

Thats something I want to know as well. From the interviews, Lobdell stated that much of Superboy's history was still intact but once I read the issue I didnt gather that. It seemed as if this is the first time a "Superboy" existed in this universe. Even Lois didnt seem to know who he was.
I thought he was just captured by N.O.W.H.E.R.E. and reversed engineered. But here it looks as though they created him and not Cadmus.

Lobdell Gets Angsty with "Teen Titans" & "Superboy
Superboy is a character with a complicated origin story, at least in modern continuity. Will this new "Superboy" series clarify and cement a simpler origin for him?
I don't really see his origin story as that complicated: He was created by Project Cadmus from the cells of Lex Luthor and Superman in the event anything ever happened to Superman. None of that has changed.
