Everything he did was to put back to what it used in his childhood, and hated everything that was different, so he lashed out at heroes of our generation, in a attempt to create the world of his choosing.

So, what I gather is, the Batman Who Laughs became some sort of dark god-being, turned 52 parallel Earths evil, and used them to attack the mainline Earth, so they gathered a multiversal army of defenders of all stripes for a climactic final battle. And during this final showdown, Superboy Prime graduates to Superman Prime, sacrifices his life and his dreams to kill a god and restore what that god set wrong, and he will never be remembered for it in the comic multiverse, but his selfless act sent him to his home, his parents, and his girlfriend, with his powers intact, and they love him. ...

[@santiagodiaz1879]

[@joshuafoy9355]

@@santiagodiaz1879 Tbf, I think what happened here was some cosmic fuckery. Superboy Prime tried to kill BWL and died in the process, temporarily disrupting or damaging BWL long enough for the rest of the heroes to get their shit together, but from how BWL and Wonder Woman have their final battle, from what I remember at least, BWL did some reality shenanigans to reverse some of what Prime did. Not enough to change things, but enough so that no one would notice any of what went on after the fact. Way I see it, BWL wants evil to reign, so the heroes seeing a once thought irredeemable monster die a hero’s death would go against his plan. Does it make sense, course not - but beings on BWL’s level don’t give a fuck about linear time and reality, but Prime’s actions still mattered and they still helped win the day. It’s why he got his happy ending after all that, on his own world with his parents and his love, Laurie, where they all love him as the kind and hopeful boy he was, not the monster he lived as for years. He even managed to keep his powers, so he finally has a chance to be the hero he always dreamed of. Joker said all it takes was one bad day to turn a good man bad and he’s right, but he missed something when he said that: all it takes is one good deed to turn a bad man good. The evil Prime committed can never be undone, but he earned his happy ending and what is clear now is his own second chance at life, the way it was meant to be before he lost his world. It’s up to him now not to fuck it up, which is kind of the whole deal with second chances.

[@DrOtto-zn1rv]

7:43 It's strange how TBWL seems indifferent to Krypto's presence, almost as if he can't even consider a dog dressed in a goofy red cape as anything remotely resembling a threat. In TBWL's eyes, he'd probably just appear as a ridiculous little creature from a ridiculous little Silver Age reality. And he'd be right. Krypto _doesn't_ pose any threat to TBWL. It's what Krypto brings out of Superboy-Prime at a pivotal moment that turns the tide.

He was Superboy Prime but proved deep inside he was the only one the same as every single Last Son Of Krypton and icon through the multiverse there's a symbol of a hero even though they stray from their path of hero their souls are hero's a single thought a single action set a deed to do the right, to do the right and give it they all a sacrifice of All they were and could have been the Boy(Man) Of Steel restoration of a golden age and the Legend of the Hero once more Prime Earth Legend

[@kevinmckinley7378]

I’ve always felt for prime and knew he had potential to be more than he is. This dog made him whole again and he sacrificed everything to save all reality in the end and redeemed himself in the legacy of Superman! The Krytpo parts are very heart touching and extremely deep rooted in emotion....this was a fantastic way to send him off!

[@darthhollister01]

Just so everyone knows... Prime didn't actually die... he just went home to Earth-Prime. Like he always does. He gave a little stinger line at the end where he was like "lol I'm not gone for good". But I really do feel like it's important to point out how ridiculously op this storyline made Prime. Like even more than before. I mean Darkest Knight literally had some of the power of the Great Darkness and a negative Multiverse Doctor Manhattan and Prime still beat his ass.

[@oboroth51]

I would have never expected such a great redemption for Superboy Prime.

[@michaelcastro5339]

Superboy(man) - Prime was never an actually evil character, he was just a sad person who lost everything and made many bad choices in trying to get back what he lost. Every time he made a bad choice he just got buried in more and more guilt and the weight of it all kept him from trying to do things in any way other than pushing forward even if it was over the bodies of his former friends. He had so much guilt he could never say sorry and ask for help, as you can see with Connor, they had already made up their minds about him just like how he made up his mind about them. "Why won't they help me?" - Prime, "He is just a crazy murderer" - Everyone else.

He's not dead

[@skyslasher2297]

So it is now that he is laid to rest a noble sacrifice that no one know he made the ultimate tragedy a forgotten hero. He may have more misses then hits in his tenure in comics I am in a minority opinion about like Prime. His origin is racked with unexpected tragedy learning that he is indeed his childhood idol only mere moments later having his life and loved ones ripped away from them forever wanting some semblance of them back. He saved the multiverse before but no one knew it and being 16 at most at the time just got to sit back and watch to see the other hero's get the happy ending that he thinks he deserved something snapped that day. Theres a lot of significance in his villain name SuperBOY prime even though his like 20 by this point originally just a stand in for Superboy classic in the original crisis its come to represent Primes psychological issues and tragedy that no matter how hard he tried he is not Superman his selfishness kept him petty and immature but here he finally moved past that letting go of his own dreams and desire to save everyone. He may have lived as Superboy but he died the person the Man he wanted to be. Goodbye Clark I don't know about others but I'll definitely miss you.

Currently writing a novel about how being a hero is equal parts incredibly important and costly to oneself. One quote that I'm thinking of putting in that I think summarizes it fairly well is, "To be a hero is to be a fool, but it is to be a fool upon which the existence of the world will depend upon." With all that being considered, this video had me tearing up quite a bit near the end since I'm a sucker for thematic parallels.

I've been waiting for this fight ever since superboy prime returned

[@Quintessenza]

This fight kinda backs up the claim that Superboy Prime has resistance to matter manipulation as I’m pretty sure many attacks that Batmanhattan was trying to use on him was intended to subatomically disperse him, it even has that special molecule type attack aura you see appear when beings like Molecule Man, Captain Atom, Regular Dr. Manhattan, and Sentry with void power use their matter manipulation. Most notably at 6:30 he’s goading Batmanhattan to try and kill him, in which we see him try to unleash some matter manipulation energy attack in his face point blank, we see SBP in pain but he clearly shrugs it off and shouts “kill me, I’ll kill you” meaning that attack he took was most definitely some attempt by Batmanhattan as a one shot molecular attack. Implying that SBP is somehow in a state beyond matter manipulation or this level of existence erasure at least. I’m certain higher level beings that are outerversal can most definitely erase him.

[@jpf7942]

He's from our world where none of that stuff exists, same applies to magic. He's a Silver Age Kryptonian without the weaknesses, although he's more powerful though due to him being able to casually Retcon or shatter dimensions
