sigh. thinking bout kon depressive episode where the tip that something is Wrong wrong is that he stops bringing up his ttk. hes real sullen and quiet a lot now but when the opportunity for a ttk comment comes up his friends leave the habitual gap in conversation for him to make it and he doesn't and they go "uh, kon? arent you gonna say something about your... tactile telekinesis?" and kon just frowns and shrugs and looks away and mutters "nah. figure everybody's sick a' hearing it by now." and alarm bells start blaring in everybodys heads

chat, I promise you that Kon is not getting paid

not from his merch or his tv era or anything. he is not receiving a single penny in universe

lets remember remember Rex Leech. he trademarked the name Superman and the "S" symbol. when Superman came back to life, he was sold the Superman name and symbol back for $1 by Roxy Leech, Rex's daughter who's name the trademark was under

however - a deal was struck

Rex would have to donate half of all money made on Superboy products in order to let Kon keep using the name Superboy and the "S" symbol. that would be any profits on shows and toys and whatever other products made in Superboy's name

I promise y'all that Rex Leech kept half of the money to himself and that what would be Kon's share was donated to charity. that was the kind of shady agent that Rex was. while Superboy may have gotten an initial payout from GBS - he did not see a single cent after that.

he was 16 (2 months) and approached with a media deal. I doubt that he fully understood what he was signing into especially since the company had literally faked a villain attack to get him on board. they were not playing fair, they were money hungry, and I have no doubt that they wrote up a deal that gave them everything and Kon nothing, especially after Superman took them to court

so yeah. I am certain that Kon never saw a single penny from his media star days. if he did, I don't think the Suicide Slums arc would've happened how it did

he should be in the back of art class making horrible jokes and wearing lousy shirts to school not getting groomed

You'll see, Hurt/Comfort, Canon Compliant, also sorta, Robin!Kon, If you've read SB94 Hypertension then you already know the character death guys, Could be read as more than platonic, actually YES beta we come back like Kon! Summary:

It wasn’t until he saw Robin crumple to the ground, with Black Zero coldly glaring, Knockout with a triumphant, cruel grin over top of the Boy Wonder, that the reality of the team's situation hit Superboy.

He’s seen Robin take a hit before. Hell, they were heroes! Young Justice! They’ve taken more hits than any of them could count!

But Robin would always respond back with some reassurance, even if he was lying through his teeth. Sometimes it’d be quick banter back, maybe a few grunts if it was bad. Instead, it was as if everything grinded to a halt after the sound of something cracking rang in his ears.

Now, Superboy couldn’t hear anything from Robin. No pulse. No heartbeat. He couldn’t hear anything from Robin. Why couldn’t he hear anything??”
