John Newton: Superboy, Clark Kent

Quotes 

• Clark Kent : I'm glad you were around when I needed you. I'm not used to others doing the rescuing.

  Jonathan Kent : Yeah. Well, that's what parents are for, son.

• Lt. Harris : Sergeant Johnson, the SWAT officer who tore up the, uh, agriculture show, any reason why he'd try to blow you to bits?

  Superboy : I haven't got a clue.

  Lt. Harris : That makes two of us. I can't get any of this to add up. I knew Johnson. He was straight as an arrow. Not a head case. I must be missing something. Something must've happened last night when Johnson and his partner came across the break-in at the cryogenics lab.

  Superboy : Cryogenics lab? There was a break-in?

  Lt. Harris : Yeah.

  Superboy : Do you know what was taken?

  Lt. Harris : Some vials, box of hypos, different things.

  [seeing his reaction] 

  Lt. Harris : What is it? What's wrong?

  Superboy : I hope it's not what I think.

• Professor Peterson : Amazing. I mean, there were enough explosives in that van to topple a building. But you seem to check out just fine. I mean, from what I can tell. I mean, even x-rays can't penetrate your skin.

  Superboy : I feel fine, professor. Really, there's nothing to worry about.

  Professor Peterson : You may be feeling no ill effects now, but you did black out.

  Superboy : Yes, I did, for a second or two.

  Professor Peterson : More like a minute. The point is, you're not completely impervious to physical trauma. Now, take this laser. It's powered by green space rocks that emit a radiation harmless to us, but deadly to you. Now, why? I mean, what is the link between you... and an unknown green element? And this morning... you survived the immense heat of a major explosion unscathed. Now, what if it had been the heat of a... a 50-megaton hydrogen bomb? And then there's cold. Could you withstand temperatures approaching absolute zero?

  Superboy : Beats me, professor.
