Superboy: Legacies

A 20-episode series, told in two parts

Jon Kent and Conner Kent are on parallel journeys to embrace the fullness of their identities, negotiate their relationships with their parents, and lean forward into their destinies. Jon struggles with the discomfort of nurture, the principles of his upbringing, and carrying the masculine legacy of Superman on his shoulders. Conner struggles with the pull of nature, that is, his genetic link to and traits of both Clark Kent and Lex Luthor. Along the way, they will find community and grow in their understanding of sexuality, masculinity, and the need for healthy love and community. They will learn how to reconcile with, or reject, the legacies of those who have come before them, who try to exert influence over them. While they walk different paths, they maintain a brotherly bond that will be tested and stretched to its limit. Will they forge a new way forward, to exist in and navigate the world, or will their tension tear it apart? Each episode focuses on either Jon or Conner's story, though they will eventually intersect.
