PERSONALITY:

According to Infinite Crisis writer Geoff Johns, "Superboy-Prime's really frustrated with what his life has turned into and, unfortunately, that frustration is going to be taken out on the world." He also mentioned that "He's been wanting to show the world what he can do, because he barely had a chance to be Superboy. He was Superboy a little bit before Crisis on Infinite Earths and then—BOOM!—his world was wiped out and that was it."[32]

When asked how Superboy-Prime's battle with the Teen Titans got out of control so quickly, editor Dan Didio said, "Superboy is a teenager raised in isolation, with raging hormones, a huge chip on his shoulder and the powers of a god. He never learned how to keep his powers or emotions in check, so when confronted, the situation escalated and he had no idea on how to defuse it. Think of a situation where you, as a teenager, lost your temper. Now imagine you have the power to crush a planet. Do you think that situation would have ended differently? This is the moment where Superboy-Prime crosses the point of no return and becomes the greatest threat the universe will ever know."

After the publication of Infinite Crisis #5, Johns said at the Wizard World LA convention: "That took me a long time to break, because I thought Superboy-Prime needed to view the world so narrow. You can see how his world view is so narrow and so black and white and realistically that is not going to work anymore." Originally, Superboy-Prime started out coming into Crisis as corrupted and evil, but the take on the character didn’t work for Johns. "I said to Dan I think Prime does it by accident and is horrified. That panel where’s he’s looking at his hands and goes 'I didn’t mean to do it,' that for me is the entire story for Superboy-Prime. He didn’t mean to do this stuff. What’s worse... making a mistake and fessing up to it or doing something bad and saying ‘You made me do it?’ Superboy-Prime is a very simplistic character who has become very complex."[33]

When asked if Superboy-Prime was irredeemable or not, Johns replied "I think it’s a split. You saw his reaction when he did what he did in Infinite Crisis, but at that same time, he’s walked over that line. Does he think he can walk back? Should he? Does this universe even matter to him anymore? Is it the fact that, now that he’s got a big dent on his car, another one won’t matter? If he’s already on that path, is he going to continue on it, or is he going to really try and work and go back?"

GOALS:

To claim an Earth as his own where he can be the only hero, even if he has to kill every last hero on every last Earth to do this.

WEALTH:

Standard corporation, millionaire

ADVANTAGES:

Kryptonian physique: Kal-El may appear to be human, but physiology he differs greatly due to the nature of his Kryptonian D.N.A.

Kryptonian physique: Superboy may appear to be human, but physiology he differs greatly due to the alien nature of his D.N.A. While appearing human on the outside, Superboy 's physiology vastly superior to that of an average Terran and physically capable of feats of strength, speed and endurance which are beyond the comprehension of any terrain.

POWERS:

Flight: Primecan fly through air and space without any apparent means of propulsion. This is the most desired Power in the history of the world. He can move at speeds up to 250 mph.

Rank: 52

Hyper-Breath: Blowing really hard to knock people over. This feat can be performed only by those with an 11+ Strength. You must make an average Strength (Strength) action, and those you succeed against are knocked back and lose their action for the exchange.

Rank: 52

Hyper-Balance: Primepossesses the ability to achieve a state of perfect equilibrium in any position imaginable. He seems able to adjust his position by instinct, enabling histo balance himself on virtually any object, no matter how small or narrow. He has developed a unique fighting style that makes full use of his agility, strength, and equilibrium.

Rank: 52

Hyper-Digging: While burrowing is not Prime's preferred mode of transportation, when compared to running or flying, he is still capable of travelling swiftly through earth and rock by burrowing a tunnel at Power rank speed (land movement rate). Normally any tunnels burrowed by his collapse within a few minutes of Prime's passaging. The exception is the tunnel within 10 feet of Prime's current location. This allows his to occasionally stop. A tunnel never collapses on his, unless a higher Intensity force is applied. Note that a side-effect Hyper-Digging is that when digging Prime's Strength and Endurance are increased as needed that he will not tire.

Rank: 52

Hyper-Endurance: Primecapability of sustaining prolonged periods of physically stressful effort (aerobic or anaerobic) without/while only exhibiting any noticeable signs of exhaustion or duress. In the case of Prime, 'long' is defined as being equal to the Body rank times the rank of Hyper-endurance. Thus Primecould run at full tilt for .

Rank: 52

Hyper-Hearing: Primecan detect extremely faint sounds and unusual frequencies. He can identify objects by the sounds they emit. Because of the sensitivity of his hearing, he is more vulnerable to sonic attacks (which receive a +1RS against ).

Rank: 52

Hyper-Leaping: Primecan jump great distances. By repeated leaps, Primecan rapidly cover large distances. The distance Primecan cover is equal to his Strength rank +1 rank. If a lower rank is initially rolled, it must be raised to this level. This is the distances Primecan safely leap. Innate safeguards in this Power enable Primeto safely land so as not to injure or break a leg for example. The effect is the same on Primeas if he were a Normal Human making a 2 foot leap up or across or descending 3 feet.

The effects on the area Primelands on might not be the same as if a normal jump occurred. Consider that the Hulk splinters the pavement when he lands. To determine what sort of effects occur when Primelands, it is with a force equal to that of five times his own weight suddenly drops on the surface in question. The actual landspeed varies with the angle of the leaps.

Physical burdens do not decrease Prime's speed, although they might decrease his control. Anything Primeis carrying is also protected by the innate safeguards against damage; Primeacts as a shock-absorber.

Rank: 52

Hyper-Olfactory: Primecan detect the presence of minute traces of substances and accurately identify them by smell. This Power is continually functioning.

Rank: 52

Hyper-Speed: Primecan run at Power rank speed for extended amounts of time. The Power has the side-effect of raising the Ability rank number of Endurance by this Power's rank number. It includes protection to wind resistance and windburn; this protection extends to anything Primeis carrying. Prime's lungs are modified to breath high velocity air. The last benefit can be crucial if Primeis capable of Remarkable speeds or better.

If Prime stumbles, he continues on a ballistic trajectory until he regains his footing or rolls to a halt. To cut down on the chance of this, the Power increase Prime's reaction time to be able cope with impending problems. The increased reaction time decreases the relative speed of any other moving object. Prime's Power rank number decreases the perceived speed of the other object. For example, Quicksilver's Shift X speed lets hisperceive a bullet traveling at 600 mph as if it were traveling only 15 mph.

This side-effect enables Primeto dodge or even catch things like bullets and missiles.

Rank: 52

Hyper-Strength: This is the iconic super power of a meta being, representing not only Prime's raw physical force, but also it is the physical manifestation of his ability to assert himself over another. As such, Primeis capable of bench pressing a maximum of , or to put it another way, He could bench the .

Rank: 52

Hyper-Taste: Primecan detect the presence of minute traces of substances and accurately identify them by taste. This Power is continually functioning; his has learned to ignore unpleasant smells. If he loses his ability to mask out nasty odors, he'll be so distracted (and possibly sickened) by the intruding odors that he loses 1 endurance rank per day the condition persists.

Rank: 52

Hyper-Touch: Primepossesses an Enhanced sense of touch that permits histo detect extremely fine surface details and to identify materials by their surface "feel."

Rank: 52

Invulnerability: This represents the ultimate combination of Resistances and Body Armor. Eagle is immune to any physical harm, equal to his power rank's limit. The immunity includes the following resistances: fire, heat, cold, electricity, radiation, corrosives, disease, poison, brute force, sonics, and kinetic bolts. The rank of the Invulnerability reduces the rank of the attack form. Thus if he were struck with an attack value of 15, his invulnerability rank of 12 would reduce the damage done to hisby his rank of 12, thus he would only suffer an attack of 3 points to his Body.

Rank: 52

Regeneration: Should Primebe hurt, his enhanced physiology can rapidly recover from any wound or injury. Cuts quickly close and disease symptoms disappear. He heals at an accelerated rate equal to the his endurance rank times the normal amount of time which might be normally required to heal. With time, He can regrow large areas of lost tissue, especially severed limbs, even lost limbs or organs It is not known if He can regenerate after death.

Rank: 52

Self-Sustenance: Primecan survive indefinitely without consuming air, water, or food. Bodily wastes are internally recycled back into useable materials. Normally Primewould not need to replenish himself when his power reached its limit. He merely resumes normal consumption habits (breathe normally, eat a light snack, etc.). This is the permanent form of the power. The temporary form requires Primeto consume mass quantities at the expiration of the Power. ("That's the fifteenth steak you've eaten, Fred. How long did you say it's been since you ate last?") The required intake is one-quarter what Primewould normally have consumed during the time he was abstaining. Primecan raise his Power rank +1rs by opting for the temporary form.

Rank: 52

Vision Microscopic: Prime's eyes can focus on extremely minute targets, objects too small for normal vision to perceive. This Power functions in two stages. The first is light magnification; Prime's eyes function as normal microscopes. This allows histo see things as small as chromosomes. Beyond this level, light no longer carries iPrimes. The second stage of this Power is a variation of Clairvoyance that permits his to see miniature, rather than distant, targets.

Rank: 52

Vision Telescopic: Prime's eyes can focus on extremely distant targets, objects too far away for the unaided eye to perceive. his eyes function as normal binoculars. This allows histo see things regardless of distant so long as they aren't obstructed by the curvature of the planet, light pollution, etc.

Rank: 52

Vision Thermal:

Rank: 52

Vision Heat: Commonly referred to as 'Heat Vision', Primecan project tremendous amounts of concentrated radiation or 'heat' that is not necessarily accompanied by light or flame by accelerating molecular motion of a target through various means. He can project these energies from his eyes at planetary distances. This 'heat' radiation can be in any form, ranging from ultraviolet light, x-rays, and alpha and beta particles, gamma rays, to the ever-popular "cosmic rays." This permits Primehas total control over his own inherent radioactivity and possesses automatic/natural safe-guards that prevent hisfrom fatally contaminating the any unintended areas each time he uses his Power. Primeto do rank level effects over target endurance rank.

Rank: 52

Vision X-Ray: This is commonly called "X-ray vision" but is not actually based on the emission of X-rays. Primecan see through any solid with the exception of lead; the effect is as if the obscuring material were transformed to clear glass. If this Power is interfered with by outside forces, Primemay perceives everything as a transparent outline.

Rank: 52

Vision Ultraviolet:Primecan see ultraviolet light. Because UV light isn't as readily absorbed by water as normal light, this Power enables Primeto see clearly through fog and at greater distance in the water (+1rs). Primecan also see the dim light given off by radioactive materials. Primecannot actually "see in the dark" but only if UV light is present. The effect is the same when seen by normal people. Primehas an increased risk of being blinded by strong UV sources, like black lights and radiation (-2rs).

Rank: 52

Time Travel: Primecan travel in time to reach any point in the past, present or future. The maximum range He can reach varies depending on which direction they are traveling. Travel into the past is easier because it already exists from the their point of view. The maximum range is equal to the Power rank number times 1000 years. Travel into the future is harder (at least, if you're planning a return trip). The maximum range into the future is equal to the Power rank number times 10 years.
