Adventure Comics #1
Artist Francis Manapul posts the solicitation info for Adventure Comics #1 on his blog, as well as black and white versions of some of the color art The Source had a couple of weeks ago. The book will include two stories, one starring the newly revived Conner Kent and the other featuring JSA/Legion of Super Heroes member Starman. The copy promises a lot of guest stars in upcoming issues of the title, including several Legionnaires, several characters connected to Superboy and a Black Lantern named Alexander Luthor. Manapel is drawing the Superboy feature, while Clayton Henry is drawing Starman.
I thought it was clever that the variant cover of the book will be numbered Adventure Comics #504.

still think it would be great of DC to run with Adventure Comics on the new numbering until #31...then jump ahead to #504. They could use a PR boost 2.5-3 years in anyway.
There was never a 'real' Adventure comics #1, as the series started with New Comics #1, then New Adventure until #32. It became "Adventure Comics" with #33.
please the old and the new fans, and Robert Overstreet
