Who is Superboy?

This is the German-market edition of Superboy — the Kon-El clone of Superman created from Kryptonian and human DNA — as published by Panini Deutschland, introduced via their DC/Marvel crossover line in 1997.

Superboy leaps into the catalog through a fascinating corner of comics history — a 1997 debut in a DC/Marvel crossover publication from Panini Deutschland, placing this version of the character squarely in the creative hands of Ron Marz, Jackson Guice, Frank Neubauer, and Josef Rubinstein. Appearing most frequently in Superman, Marvel DC Crossover, and DC Premium editions, this is a character whose catalog presence spans a remarkable stretch from 1997 all the way to 2025, sharing pages with heavy-hitters like Superman, Green Lantern, Flash, and Clark Kent himself. With at least one key collector-significant issue to their name, this Superboy is a genuinely intriguing find for fans of international comics publishing and the beloved crossover era that brought the two great comics universes together.
