Superboy (real name Kon-El, also known as Conner Kent) is a major protagonist in the DC Comics. He is a human-Kryptonian hybrid built from the DNA of the human supervillain Lex Luthor and Superman, a superhero from the planet Krypton). He is also the adoptive cousin of Kara Zor-El, the best friend of Bart Allen and Tim Drake, The boyfriend of Cassie Sandsmark and the ex-boyfriend of Cassandra Cain and Natasha irons.

Having rejected his Luthor heritage, Connor decided to become a hero and went to live a normal life on the Kent Farm with Clark's adoptive parents, Martha and Jonathan. He finally became a superhero himself, was officially adopted by Jonathan and Martha, and founded the Young Justice with Impulse and Robin.

He was created by Tom Grummett and Karl Kesel and first appeared in Adventures of Superhero #500.
