Stålpojken #7/1974
In "Stålpojkens första uppdrag," Clark gräver djupare i sin identitet when he asks to wear his stålpojksdräkt fulltid—only to face hesitation from his adoptivföräldrar, who worry he's too young. A visit to the farm where he grew up reveals a quiet mystery: the new owners, the Crawleys, are secretly involved in atomic research, and one of them has vanished—kidnapped by the enigmatic spy Lobko. Written by Leo Dorfman and illustrated by Bob Brown with inks by Vinnie Colletta, this 1974 issue features cover art by Bob Brown and Vinnie Colletta.
On the anniversary of Smallville’s founding, Stålpojken encounters the immortal Carl Clayton—once a judge in the 1690s who sentenced a witch to death. As the witch’s final act, she cursed him with eternal life, and now, decades later, that curse has drawn him back into the town’s past.
In "Stålpojksmumiens förbannelse," Anton’s magical potion awakens Superboy’s powers in his son Seth, but a trick by a rival leaves Neferti cursed with a scarab that strips her of her abilities—leading to a tragic drowning as she tries to save Seth. Five thousand years later, Lana’s accidental wearing of Neferti’s scarab nearly kills Superboy, reigniting an ancient curse tied to their forgotten fate.
