“The Town That Stole Superboy!”

Two rival towns are literally pulling Superboy apart on Win Mortimer's lively cover — crowds from Smallville and Hadley each clutching the Boy of Steel as competing roadside signs declare their claim to being his true home. Promising "The Startling Story of 'The Town That Stole Superboy!'", this July 1951 issue of Adventure Comics sets up a wonderfully offbeat premise with real charm. At 52 big pages for just a dime, it's a fine snapshot of early 1950s DC storytelling at its most inventive.
