Superboy #13/1981
In "Superboy im Show-Business," a charismatic talent manager arrives in Smallville with a voice that holds a strange, hypnotic power over the teenage hero. When an alien phantom threatens the town, Superboy uses that very influence—unexpectedly—to turn the tide. Written by Cary Bates and illustrated by Kurt Schaffenberger, with inks by Dave Hunt and colors by Jerry Serpe, this 1981 issue features a cover by Schaffenberger and Hunt that captures the story’s blend of suburban charm and cosmic intrigue.
When a charismatic talent agent arrives in Smallville with a voice that mesmerizes even Superboy, the young hero finds himself pulled into the world of show business—much to the dismay of his parents, Jonathan and Martha Kent. With the town threatened by an otherworldly phantom, Superboy must use the very hypnotic power that ensnared him to confront a danger far beyond the spotlight.
In the wake of Ultraboy’s mysterious disappearance, the Legion mourns their fallen comrade—only for the young hero to awaken adrift in space, his memories gone. Taken aboard a pirate ship by a fierce captain with a curious eye, Ultraboy finds himself drawn into a new life among a crew of misfits, each with their own secrets. As the past begins to flicker at the edges of his mind, one thing becomes clear: his journey has only just begun.
