Clark Kent is dead: Part 1

Much like my posts about characters after the passing of Batman, I went for new looks for the Superman family.

The first is the usurper of the throne in Conner Kent/Kon El, better known as Superboy. He is taking over the Superman name but would prefer not to take the image. He forms a team of characters who have to graduate or grow up so to speak. They use the symbol from Kingdom Come and Conner goes for the Tshirt and jeans like before the relaunch, this time with boots over the pants. Kara Zor El or Supergirl must be Superwoman now. This is all about change and differentiating from Superman while keeping his message alive. She loses the cape, the blue, and the sleeves, but gains thigh highs. All the way right is my curve ball. That is Jimmy Olsen as the new Steel. He always wanted to be a hero like Superman but never had the means (except those really bad stories where he did).
