Covering the Astonishing Titans

There’s an interesting similarity between the covers of the latest issues of Teen Titans and Astonishing X-Men.

Professor X and Superboy

For those who may be wondering why Superboy is bald: he’s a clone of Superman, but Earth’s cloning technology isn’t up to creating a 100% Kryptonian. So they used human DNA as well to create a hybrid. Early in this series he discovered the human donor was Lex Luthor. He’s been a bit… conflicted about that discovery.

    I didn’t read much of Superboy, but now that you mention it, I vaguely remember something of that sort. As I recall, Westfield wasn’t exactly trustworthy, so it’s possible he was just lying.
