The current reboot of Superman in Superman: Birthright will be out in HC at the end of the year.
Well, then, this is a day I'll feel good to be me.

Yipes. It's a big week for me at the store:
- Batman Legends Of The Dark Knight #181
- Gotham Central #21
- Green Arrow #40
- Identity Crisis #2 (Of 7)
- Nightwing #95
- Teen Titans #13
Good thing for the box discount, else I'd be feeling like I'm blowing my whole budget in one place.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Heh. I had lunch with my Dad, and it's become a pattern that, after we go to lunch, we go to Half-Price Books, which now has comics.
Dad succeeded in making me feel 11 years old (not in a horrible, will-need-extra-therapy kind of way): I found about 5 or 6 back issues of Robin for 75 cents each, and I was making squee noises. Dad asked, "What do you DO with all those comics?"
Me: "Dad, what do you THINK I do with them?"
Dad: "Well, I know you read them, but do you....KEEP them?"
Me: "Dad, I keep everything I read."
Half-Price Books had an Impulse TPB, but since I'm not a particular Bart fan, I didn't buy it.

You know, the Impulse trade would probably cure you of that problem.

So... if one wanted to check out the latest Superboy model -- as evidenced in Shrift's latest bit of fanfic over on LJ -- is there an easily obtainable series to do this with? Probably called Superboy, I suppose, but I wanted to check here, because if I walk into my local comics purveyor and tell them that I ran across the character in a slash fanfic story where he's kissing Nightwing, they -- just possibly -- might look at me funny.

Remember, remember/the fifth of November/the Gunpowder Treason and Plot/I see no reason/Why Gunpowder Treason/Should ever be forgot.
Theo, the only title Superboy currently regularly appears in is Titans, though he is a frequent guest star in the Superman titles.
Superboy, the comic, was cancelled a while back.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
He's much more likely to kiss Robin in TT, Theo, I should mention.
