Superboy #17
In "Eine Superkraft zu wenig!", Superboy faces his greatest challenge yet when Lex Luthor escapes prison once more and unleashes a device designed to steal the young hero’s powers—leaving only his X-ray vision intact. Written by Paul Kupperberg and illustrated by Kurt Schaffenberger, with colors by Jerry Serpe, this 1984 issue delivers a tense, clever showdown where even a single power can make all the difference. The cover, by Gil Kane, captures the moment of high-stakes vulnerability with striking clarity.
When Lex Luthor escapes prison once more, he hatches a scheme to steal Superboy’s powers—leaving the Kryptonian teen reliant only on his X-ray vision. With three mechanical duplicates of himself now prowling Metropolis, Superboy must outthink a genius villain and protect his friends, including Pete Ross, Lisa Davis, and his parents, Jonathan and Martha Kent, all while his own strength slips away.
In "Wer rettet Fairfax?", Chris und Vicky, in ihren neuen Verwandlungen, kämpfen gegen die schrecklichen Acht, während nur Der Meister ihnen entkommt — aber wer wird den nächsten Schritt wagen, wenn die Stadt in Gefahr schwebt?
