Superboy #122
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Jealous Clark Kent!", Superboy’s latest adventure takes a delightfully bizarre turn when red kryptonite transforms him into a jealous version of himself—literally. With a life-size puppet of his heroic self, Clark Kent sets out to sabotage his own good deeds, all in a bid to be seen as the more relatable, human figure. Written by Leo Dorfman and brought to life with crisp art by George Papp, this 1965 classic features Curt Swan’s iconic cover and George Klein’s sharp inks, capturing a moment of playful ego clash that’s both whimsical and strangely poignant.
When a dose of red kryptonite turns Superboy into a jealous puppet of himself, Clark Kent finds his double acting out his worst impulses—deliberately sabotaging heroic deeds to win favor. With Martha and Jonathan Kent watching, the boy from Smallville must confront the strange rift between his two identities before the puppet's mischief spirals out of control.
