miss the days when he was canonically forgetful and so human because of it. like the powers were hardwired into his DNA, but he was also just a forgetful lil guy. a lil dumb. actually, very dumb. don't worry honey, your bartman's coming to get you.

A common question I hear every other week about Clark and Kon in Superboy '94 is "Why didn't Clark take Kon in when he came back to life, and if not Clark, literally anybody else to keep him safe from Rex etc." which is FAIR question that can be answered fairly easily.
1.) Clark genuinely believed that Kon was in good hands. Clark had a very friendly relationship with Dubbilex and trusted him to be able to keep a close eye on Kon and keep him generally out of trouble. Unfortunately Dubbilex was lukewarm at best.
2.) He genuinely didn't know about most of the things that happened, because the writers kept them both Clark and Kon generally segregated into their own comics. It's just the story the writers wanted to tell.
3.) Clark had experience with Cadmus clones in the past and knew how adaptive and quick they were to function and thrive as their own independent people. He assumed Kon would have no difficulty.
Superboy's solo is a very compelling series with a lot of nuance, and while I would struggle to call it 'good' or even recommend it for casual reading, there is a lot going on behind the scenes that explains why things are LIKE that.

Sunday, September 1st - People of Manchester, Alabama & The Ravers // Nightmares // Accidental Kink Discovery
Purpose?
Continuing to celebrate the BartKon Renaissance in the modern era. Since the ship has historically been a rarepair since its conception in the 1990's, this fanweek acts as both a way to celebrate the BartKon narrative in DC Comics, as well as engage new fans in our small yet mighty collective.
Why should we participate in this?
Because you like BartKon. Because you saw fanfiction and fanart and shitposts, and decided you wanted to see what's poppin' in the BartKonosphere. All creators are welcome. Our romcom lovers, the darkfic connoisseurs, and of course, our smut specialists.
So how does it work?
The release date for fanworks is from Monday, the 26th of August through Sunday, the 1st of September, 2024. 
You have four months to write, draw, and create fanworks. On top of fanfiction and fanart, we also encourage meta, essays, ship manifestos, playlists, and poetry.
This is also an opportunity for new fans to engage with an old ship with a robust body of work, hence why this fanweek is dedicated only to BartKon depicted in DC Comics from 1994-2024. This is not a YJ-centric week, nor it is a BartKon+third week, nor is it a my-ship-is-better-than-your-ship week. Please be courteous and treat each other with respect when engaging with fanworks and their creators. If you misbehave, I will be cursing you with ten thousand years of bad luck on top of car/train/transportation trouble every day for the rest of your life.
BartKon of ANY comic book universe is acceptable. If you want to spend the entire fanweek exploring Luthor-El and Bart because you love horrific love, then be my guest! If you want a crazed version of Bart to kidnap Kon from Gemworld, go for it! Let that imagination run WILD!!!
Both safe and not-safe-for-tunglr dot hell tropes are welcome. Just make sure that you post any Mature content on a landing page that doesn't restrict Mature content (like AO3). I don’t want anyone getting their blog banned. We cannot defeat our capitalist overlords, but we can definitely work around them.
This fanweek will not have a dedicated blog. These prompts are free for anyone to use. Because it is a non-traditional, non-monetized, and free-to-opt-in casual event, there will be no mods but moi, no advertising of paid services, and no ratings or participant restrictions. I will open a collection on AO3 in August for anyone who wants their work collated for this event.
In order to ensure that both creators and the audience are making informed decisions about what they engage with, all creators are encouraged to include triggers and any other squick warnings. 
Please utilize the read-more function for fanworks that are longer than 250 words. We're tryna read yer stories, not get spammed with a wall of text. Please Be Courteous.
And last but not least - if you are engaging with any of the fanworks, reblog, reblog, reblog! Share the work with your followers. Send all the love to the creators for crafting their masterpieces!!
What can I contribute?
Fanart (standalones, comic strips, etc.), fanfiction (one-shots, multichapter, etc.), fanmixes, gifsets, graphics, meme collections, fanvids, ship essays and meta, songifics, playlists, poetry, whatever your heart desires! Go wild!!!
Can I create/write not-safe-for-tunglr dot hell content?
Yes!!! All creators are encouraged to include triggers warnings, sub-genre specifications, and other warnings in their posts. I will not discourage you from writing your 16k Bart Goes Insane Over Kon fic, but please... Be Courteous and tag your fanworks appropriately so people can make an informed decision about what they're comfortable with engaging with.
What does (X) prompt mean?
Each day has three prompts!! You can either pick a prompt OR you can combine prompts in different ways. Although the prompts range from The Basics, to Things That Frighten The Barts and Kons, and end with They're Fucking Nasty in Cissie's Basement Because They Can't Afford a Motel, I challenge you to let your imagination take you where you want to go with each prompt!! If you want to explore all three in the same fanwork, then be my guest!! I will not stop you :'>
Mainstream Canon, Elsewords, and AU content is acceptable! Just make sure to stay within the comicsverse. We have SO MUCH BARTKON MADNESS IN THE COMICS, SO PLAY AROUND WITH OUR BEAUTIFUL CANON!!! Creativity is key! Have fun!!!
Can I crackship/multiship/harem/OT3/polyam the characters?
No. It's literally BartKon Week, Heart & Bones Edition. There's like six active fans left on this bitch of an earth. Don't do this to me :'<
Does this have a tag?
During release week, use the general “bartkon” and "konbart" tags to share your work with the wider BartKon fandom on tunglr. You can use whatever other tags you fancy. The best way to share, however, is to directly @ me so that I may reblog it.
I didn’t read a damn thing before this, Ava.
TL;DR: Nearly four months until the fanweek!!! For all fanwork creators out there, now’s the time to start thinking about what prompts you want to utilize for your creations. There are no creative restrictions, but I do ask that you follow these posting tips:
All fanfiction should be under a read-more.  
Not-safe-for-tunglr fanwork should be LINKED to whatever landing site the content is being hosted on (Twitter, AO3, etc). This includes both fanfiction and fanart. I don’t want your blog getting flagged bc tunglr hates gay people.
Provide content warnings for all triggers, squicks, and sub-genres. Unfortunately, in my ten odd years away from DC Comics, the fandom's seen a resurgence in puritanical behavior and tons of censorship and self-censorship. Please list content warnings on your work but do not be discouraged in sharing your work. If a fancop gets on your ass, block them. Please block as MANY as you can. They're like pests, they're always gonna be there, but their influence can be diminished by staunch blocking and reporting.
You can participate as much as you want!! Maybe you only wanna create for one day? Cool! Maybe you’re an overachieving corporate clown insomniac like myself, and wanna create for every day of the week? Go for it!!! 
The most important thing is to have fun :)
Closing Remarks
Like all my other events I host, this event, too, is entirely selfish. I've loved BartKon since I was a child when I was first introduced to it in the form of Bart/Clark on Smallville. Although I only recently came back to reading DC's mainline comics, BartKon still holds a special place in my heart even after all these years, and the few who still create and engage in their fanworks inspired me to host a little something-something for our small community.
Take your time, look through the prompts, and get your creative juices flowing! I will be sending out reminders until the go-live date.
For the people who showed interest during the initial interest check, I hope you're able to participate. To the people who hate me, your mom's a hoe. Thank you.

i think we should go ahead and do a convergence type event where they bring back certain preboot runs again but like kon’s should just be issue 92 of his solo except he’s older and there’s less ptsd and more whatever bart and tim had going on.
bonus kon under the cut :)
someone help him

It's hard to concisely explain my full thoughts and feelings around how hard the clone rights narrative arc slapped for Kon in the wake of his mentor Jim Harper's death.
The lack of autonomy placed on his mentor, the governmental involvement in the subjugation of Cadmus clones, Kon's attempts to protect his mentor from those who were going to exploit him for another life, Waller's persistent dehumanization, and his connection with Cherub when he revealed that they can be more just hit harder than any other arc to me.
When I read it the first time I finally felt like everything that Kon had been and seen was leading up to this arc, and in a way it did when he took out Amanda Spence who was behind most of his pain. However there was no followup, as the events on Apokolips with Young Justice and being traumatized by Bart's 'death' came immediately afterwards then his (brief) homelessness.
The way how Kon's series ended in chaos as he desperately tried to live a normal life on his own without depending on anyone, only to have it fail entirely explored from the perspective that Kon just hit rock bottom emotionally from the previous arc makes it a more compelling final arc for a compelling series, if it were not written the way it was.
Superboy '94 is a story of exploitation and one that never quite wrapped up satisfactorily, always missing the punch line. Still however it is a compelling series if you can tolerate the more triggering themes.

Can we go back to when Superboy had zip to do with Lex Luthor? Plz? He was such a deep character and his creation was so much more morally confusing because like on one hand they were just trying to protect people but on the other hand they cloned someone without their consent after they died for the express purpose of making said clone become a weapon (even if they didn’t think of him as a weapon).
Isn’t that so much better!? And then add in Superman coming back and Superboy being pushed to the side and being thought of as like, redundant or unneeded. But he doesn’t hate anybody for what’s happening to him and literally no one involved had bad intentions but still the result is a kid alone in the world and trying to find his place when he had been created, shaped, molded, for a place that isn’t there anymore. No one was evil, no one wanted to hurt Superboy, but he was created in unfortunate circumstances and then he slipped through the cracks and no one felt it was their responsibility to parent him.
Like why would Lex even clone Superman? It’s completely out of character and goes against his goals? He distrusts Superman for having so much power. He’s racist against aliens and thinks humanity needs to stand on their own with out relying on someone who, in his mind, has no loyalty to them. He wants to make humans (himself) more powerful than Superman, no create another Superman under his control! Ughhhhhhh.
Can comics just rewind back to like right before 2000?
