| Well, he's got a type! |
“I know lots of pretty girls … but there’s something about her…”
Superboy makes the acquaintance of a beguiling young brunette in a barely-there bikini, unaware until the end of what must be a regular risk he runs when visiting the 30th century – she’s his direct descendant. Great-great-great-granddaughter Laurel Kent is not only an immediate recipient of Superboy’s lineage – complete with reduced Kryptonian powers of invulnerability – but apparently bears an uncanny resemblance to Superman’s foredestined wife. Flirtation – HASTILY CALLED OFF!
Laurel ultimately becomes one of the casualties of shifting continuities in the DC Universe, and is ultimately revealed to be a deadly robot sleeper agent – A “Manhunter” - during the Millennium event, rather than Superman’s descendant at all. I guess they coulda hooked up after all, probably wouldn’t have been too weird.
