Superboy: The Greatest Team-Up Stories Ever Told #[nn]

In "The Wizard City," a young Lex Luthor and Superboy begin as unlikely friends, their bond tested when a well-meaning accident destroys Lex's lab, ruins a key discovery, and triggers a dramatic change in the boy genius—setting the stage for a rivalry that will echo through time. Written by Jerry Siegel and illustrated by Al Plastino, with colors by Drew Moore, this story captures the origins of one of DC’s most enduring duos in a tale that blends youthful ambition with the first sparks of destiny. The cover by Mark Farmer perfectly captures the moment of tension that marks the turning point between friendship and enmity.
