#Unless we assume Reign happened completely different it doesn't really make sense.

I do love how Jon Kent is one of those things which utterly fucks over the DC timeline.
Like. Jon cannot have been born before Reign of the Supermen without making some major retcons to Death and to Lois's deal throughout that story.
Jon Kent was 10 before any time warping shenanigans got involved.
Kon El was Superman/Superboy at the time of Reign (meaning he appeared at this time).
Kon El has to have been around for at least ten years.
Unless we make major edits to the timeline Kon and YJ all have to have been around for around 10 years.
Kon and YJ all have to be in their 20s at least.
#There are some cheat cards on Kon#He did not age for a while when he was 16.#But... even then unless you put him a generation before the rest of YJ the rest of that team would still need to be in their 20s.#We know Death and Reign happened in current continuity.#dc comics#superboy#dccomics#comics#Superman#DC Timeline#DC thoughts#Kon El#Jon Kent#Jonathon Kent#The thing as well is that also fucks up the current 'Kon erased from Continuity thing'.#Unless we assume Reign happened completely different it doesn't really make sense.#And we know Reign did happen sooo...#Dc Superman#Reign off the Supermen#Death of Superman#Essentially it just means the timeline is fucked up.#But also whether Kon's continuity is erased is pretty unclear.#Like it is in the Ongoing... but it doesn't seem to be in Action Comics or other stuff.#Essentially very fucked up continuity because seems like everybody is a little unsure what was restored by Death Metal and Rebirth.
