Superman #13/1983
In "Super-Rollentausch," a mysterious force manipulates human emotions to attack Superman, leaving the young Superboy—temporarily inhabiting the future Superman's body—struggling with both the power and the weight of the role. With Lana Lang flirting with Clark and Lois Lane frustrated with the Man of Steel, Superboy's confusion deepens as he grapples with identity, relationships, and the challenges of a hero's life. Written by Cary Bates and illustrated by Curt Swan, with inks by Dave Hunt and colors by Anthony Tollin, this 1983 issue features a striking cover by Gil Kane.
When Superman and Superboy accidentally swap minds during a timestream adventure, Superboy—now in Superman’s body—finds himself in Metropolis, where he must navigate the city’s challenges while Lana Lang and Euphor watch closely. The switch brings unexpected tension and a new perspective as the young hero steps into a role far beyond his years.
In a story where emotions are weapons, Euphor exploits the feelings of others to challenge the Man of Steel—now inhabited by Superboy, who struggles with Clark Kent’s body and a lack of experience. As Lana Lang flirts with Clark and Lois Lane grows resentful of the hero, Superboy finds himself caught in a storm of confusion and conflicting loyalties.
