Superboy #9/1981

In "Ein unbesiegbarer Gegner," Superboy, spurred by a skeptical classmate's lecture, sets out to build a robot that can truly challenge him—testing the limits of his powers in a way no foe has before. With a failsafe device entrusted to his father, the experiment begins, but not without drawing the attention of both Carl Draper and a mysterious figure who's watching closely. Written by Cary Bates and illustrated by Kurt Schaffenberger, with inks by Dave Hunt and colors by Jerry Serpe, this 1981 issue features a cover by Schaffenberger and Hunt that captures the tension of a hero stepping into uncharted territory.
