This is all sounding good. I wasn't one of those people who were repulsed by the redesigns of the characters in the Lobdell books, although I wasn't a fan either, but this info does look good.

So Superboy is gonna be dependant on the tactile telekinesis for his powers again? Alright, that's cool. I'm just wondering if it'll go back into the "he HAS the Kryptonian powers, but like Superman, he'll have to wait some time until they develop as his body absorbs more yellow sun energy" thing again, which I also have no problem with.
