Superboy #79
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis 1960 DC gem takes readers back to Krypton before its destruction, with the cover — penciled by Curt Swan and inked by Stan Kaye — depicting Jor-El holding a small white dog (Krypto) near a gleaming rocket, while Lara and a tearful baby Kal-El reach out and cry "Me want my doggie!" The speech bubbles capture a poignant domestic moment, with Lara asking how Jor-El could be so cruel as to send their baby's dog into outer space. Inside, writer Jerry Siegel and artist George Papp deliver "The Spoiled Superboy!" — a story that promises to explore the young Man of Steel's earliest days with characteristic Silver Age charm.
