Superboy #1

In "Smallville Attacks! Part One," Superboy faces off against the Parasite in his hometown, where the villain’s hunt for Superman takes a deadly turn when he targets Conner instead. With his powers rapidly sapped, Conner relies on his unique tactile telekinesis to turn the tide—only to be caught in a sudden, mysterious surge of giant plant growth from the earth. Written by Jeff Lemire and illustrated by Pier Gallo, with colors by Jamie Grant and letters by John J. Hill, the issue’s cover by Rafael Albuquerque captures the chaos of the moment.
