“The Secret of Fort Smallville”

A building burns around them, but Superboy has it handled — cape streaming through the smoke, he carries a young child to safety while Krypto the Superdog leaps alongside him, rescuing a box of small animals from the flames. This April 1957 DC issue teams the Boy of Steel with his loyal canine companion in what the cover promises is "Another Krypto Adventure," and the dynamic cover pencils by Curt Swan, inked by Stan Kaye, capture the duo's heroism with warmth and urgency. Inside, Otto Binder's story "The Secret of Fort Smallville" rounds out an issue that gives fans two super-heroes for the price of a dime.
