Superboy #5
In "The Superboy / Kid Flash Race!", Superboy teams up with Kid Flash in a high-speed sprint across Smallville, not just to prove who’s faster, but to raise funds for repairs after the town was damaged by Parasite and Poison Ivy. Written by Jeff Lemire and illustrated by Pier Gallo, with colors by Jamie Grant and letters by John J. Hill, the issue captures Superboy’s reflections on his new life amid the blur of motion and hometown stakes. The cover by Eddy Barrows and J. P. Mayer perfectly frames the electric rivalry and urgency of the race.
