☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Reform School Rebel!", Superboy takes on a daring undercover mission after a runaway teen named Skimpy escapes from a reform school farm, leading Superboy and Gratch on a tense pursuit. With the help of Bob Brown’s expressive art and Mike Esposito’s sharp inks, writer Frank Robbins delivers a socially conscious story that puts Superboy’s compassion and courage to the test. The cover by Neal Adams captures the urgency of the moment, a striking image that hints at the hidden injustices beneath the surface.
Superboy teams up with Krypto to track down Skimpy Sills after he escapes the reform school farm, only to uncover a troubling truth: the boy’s suffering at the hands of his tormentors, including the cruel Evil-Eye Gratch. When Superboy learns of the harsh conditions and abuse behind the farm’s walls, he goes undercover to expose the truth, placing himself in the midst of a system that needs to be changed.
