Character Bio - Shortly after Superman gave his life to defeat the infamous rampaging monster known as Doomsday, 4 impostors showed up in the city of Metropolis claiming to be Superman back from the dead. One of these 4 impostors was the Hero known today as Superboy, but at the time he resented the title and requested that people call him "the real Superman". Unlike Superman and Supergirl, Superboy was not born on the planet Krypton, he was genetically engineered after Superman's DNA and then cloned by Cadmus labs to create a new Superman after the Doomsday event. It is not common knowledge, in fact not even the real Superman is aware, but Superboy also regrettably shares DNA with Superman's most vile enemy: Lex Luthor.
Superboy has the power of flight, super strength, invulnerability, and a weakness to Kryptonite just like all Kryptonians, but due to his DNA being altered, he does not have their other powers, but he does have the ability to dismantle inanimate objects with a thought and touch - a power that he calls Tactile Telekinesis.
Armed with these super powers and an attitude, Superboy spends his time and efforts working with the Teen Titans as one of their charter members.

-Strategy, Tactics and Tips-

• Kryptonian figures have a number of specific counters to look out for: beware memories of their homeworld, as a Glyph of Green Kryptonite, a Kryptonite Blast Special Attack from Lex Luthor, or other Kryptonians, who ignore Kryptonian DNA. (Note that Superboy is also effective against many of your opponents' Kryptonian figures.)
