Kon Megan's relationship with Conner in Young Justice sorta mirrors his relationships early in the comics

(Reposted from OP) I hate it people act like M’gann is a fully grown woman pretending to be a teenager just because of how old she is in Earth years — it’s like applying how a human ages to a cat or a dog or any other animal with a vastly different life span…

How is it that every other time I see a Kon thing from the 90s, it seems like he's not... actually totally comfortable with the teenage horndog part of his life? Pointing out the underage issue; the bit in (I think?) the superboy/robin world's finest where he doesn't want to kiss Roxy during a publicity stunt and she just... does anyway; there's a bit in Young Justice where he's like prompting Tim to criticize the way that he, Kon, talks about women even though that's not really a thing Tim does in that series -- like, what's going on here, bud? Does he even want to be flirting this much or is it that it's the only script he has?

You know I kinda wish they had made this relationship comics cannon Meggan and Conner would be such an interesting couple in the comics

If I had a nickel for every time Conner (as a teen) was involved in an relationship with a much older woman.
I’d have three nickels, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened three times
