In "The Babe of Steel," Clark Kent's old babysitters return to Smallville, convinced that the young Clark performed super-deeds as an infant and is secretly Superboy. Written by Ed Herron and illustrated by George Papp, this 1956 Adventure Comics tale blends nostalgia and mystery as the truth behind Clark’s earliest days unfolds. The cover by Curt Swan and Stan Kaye captures the story’s whimsical yet heroic tone.
