“The Thief of Steel!”

This April 1960 issue of Superboy promises a memorable team-up as the cover spotlights Superboy and Supergirl facing off in a playful super-powered game, with a rope stretched between them and a target affixed to Superboy's chest. The speech bubbles capture genuine warmth — Superboy marveling at finally having a "super-playmate," while Supergirl hints at a bittersweet farewell looming just days away. Curt Swan and Stan Kaye deliver a charming, energetic cover scene that makes "Superboy Meets Supergirl!" feel like a treat for any young reader picking this off the newsstand in 1960.
