Superboy #149

Riding the cultural wave of the hit 1967 Bonnie and Clyde film, Superboy #149 puts a wild Silver Age spin on the gangster craze with a cover by Neal Adams that crackles with tension. A tommy gun blazes in the foreground as a blonde woman shouts "Clark! I was right! You ARE Superboy!" — catching a bullet-riddled young Clark Kent mid-stumble, his Superman symbol unmistakably visible beneath his torn shirt. It's a genuinely clever premise, pairing Smallville's finest with Depression-era outlaw archetypes, and Adams' dynamic composition makes the whole scene feel urgent and alive.
