Rather than be a father-figure, Superman and Superboy have formed a brotherly relationship. In the most recent episode of “Young Justice: Outsiders”, titled “Quiet Conversations”, Superboy and Superman have a conversation in which Clark acknowledges Conner as his little brother.
Conner was surprised and apologized for the similarity, but Superman was proud of the connection. Superboy was happy with the acceptance. At some point, Clark introduced Conner to his parents, Martha and Jonathan Kent, hoping he would accept them as his parents too.
Clark said that he cared very much for Conner as he had for Lex and told Lionel that he wouldn't let him destroy Conner's life like his doppelganger had Lex's.
History. Superboy (also known as: Kon-El, Connor Kent) was not born anywhere. He was grown. Project Cadmus grew him out of two very different genetic donors, mixing the two until they were genetically inseparable: Superman and Lex Luthor.
Lex claimed he merely wanted to get to know Conner before his inevitable death, though he admitted he had originally created Conner as a means to fulfilling the one dream he could not realize, by making his son into the Superman he could never be.
One is one of the greatest super heroes in the world—a legend whose symbol inspires hope and that stands as the embodiment of truth and justice. The other is one of the world's greatest villains—an egomaniacal genius whose every action only serves to further his own goals, even at the expense of others.
Thankfully, Conner had a change of heart in the penultimate episode of TItans season 4 and rejoined his friends for the fight against Brother Blood. The closing moments of Titans' series finale reveal that Conner finally got his long-awaited chance to meet Superman and spend some time with him in private.

In which case, Jon is more powerful than Connor in terms of raw innate power. As a kid, he has been shown to be able to hurt Superman (when Manchester Black was controlling Jon) but this does not mean he'd win against Conner, even as a teen.
In 2016, Jonathan Kent became the new Superboy in DC Comics. He was introduced as the son of Post-Crisis Superman/Clark Kent and Lois Lane, who were reintroduced in DC continuity in the 2015 Convergence event.
Kara is the biological cousin of Kal-El, who went on to adopt the name of Clark Kent and the superhero identity Superman. Her father, Zor-El, is the brother of Superman's father, Jor-El.
Conner would come to live in Smallville as the youngest adopted son of Martha and Jonathan Kent, the adoptive parents of Superman, on their farm, after being sent there by Superman. He attended Smallville High School, though he struggled to pay attention on occasion.
Although Superboy was vulnerable to Kryptonite and magic, he was immune to the effects of a creature called "The Four-Armed Terror" which Superman was highly allergic to. Another advantage of Superboy's telekinesis is that it does not use up his solar energy as fast as Superman's powers.
Kal-El and Kal-L defeat Superboy-Prime by flying him directly through Krypton's red sun Rao, destroying his armor and diminishing their powers in the process. Afterward, the Green Lantern Corps imprison him inside a "junior" Red Sun-Eater, which similarly depowers him.
Both Supermen hit Superboy-Prime with everything they had, but he was able to take it. Realizing they were overmatched, the two Supermen brought Superboy to a solar system with a red sun and threw him through it, destroying his power suit.
Shortly after taking on the Superman mantle in his father's absence, Jon Kent began dating journalist Jay Nakamura. As Jon got to know Jay, so did readers, and he's more than a match for Superman: not only is he a daring digital-age journalist, he also has powers of his own.
Being influenced by the evil Blackfire is one thing, but the hate he perceives he's getting from his teammates isn't exactly helping either. Revealed in Titans United #5, by Cavan Scott and Jose Luis, Superboy becoming the misguided and villainous Black Zero is something that his Titans teammates didn't see coming.
In the last few decades, Conner has embraced the identity of Superboy, though the title was briefly taken from him and passed on to Superman's son, Jon Kent. But with Jon now grown into the role of Superman, Conner took his mantle back as the one and only Superboy of the DC Universe.
In the series, Superboy is a clone created from Superman and Lex Luthor's DNA. During his creation, he has no free will, with scientists controlling his development and thoughts. Because of the experimentation he was exposed to, Superboy developed understandable anger issues.
While fighting a reanimated zombie Deathstroke, Superboy is somehow stabbed and seriously injured, something the other Titans didn't think was possible. Though he survives the ordeal, the episode ends with Superboy vomiting up a blood snake, which he chooses to hide from everyone else.
