Huh, that's weird. The last Superboy never spoke. Something about his voice, about that name, 'Conner', makes something stir and mutter to itself somewhere in the back of Cassie's mind.
It looks like Static has been stunned by the fall, but Slobo and Hawk seem to have him covered. Secret hasn't reappeared yet, and Kid Devil also seems to have vanished. Cassie doesn't have time to look for him before Supergirl goes after Superboy/'Conner' again with her heat-vision as well as her fists.
"I don't know any 'Conner'!" she cries. "All I know is that you're a perversion of my cousin's legacy, and I won't have it!"
"Holy shi-!" Conner just gets to start, surprised by just how angry she is. He's cut off when the burst of heat vision catches him in the chest, then an uppercut to the jaw. He flips end-over-end through the air, eventually slamming into the ground with a loud 'thud'.
"Wait- legacy?" Conner says confusedly as he picks himself up. Does that mean Superman is ... is dead?! The initial shock hit him hard. Just what the hell happened?!
While Giganta can't follow all of Supergirl's moves, she can read them well enough to tell where the Kryptonian is going to put her target and is already moving for the best location when Superboy hits the ground. Clouds of dust have been thrown up by his impact with the ground, but as soon as it clears she'll be ready to catch him in her lasso and zap him so full of magic lightning that they could use him to light Sunnyside for the next five years.
...Except, she realizes, and quickly knuckles back several feet, that the clouds around him aren't dust.
"Didn't your masters tell you?" Secret purrs as she tries to pull Superboy through 'the Other Side'. She probably won't take him far; and even if she does, she'll bring him right back, but any journey on the Secret Express is bound to leave anyone unsettled. Especially someone as steeped in death as Superboy is.

"Superman's dead."
