The New Adventures of Superboy #2

A glowing green idol with piercing pink eyes takes center stage on this striking 1980 cover, as a flame-wreathed Superboy recoils in alarm while Lana Lang points in horror at a businessman mid-transformation into a horned, red-skinned demon beside her. The cover dialogue crackles with urgency — "The Evil Statue Did It, Superboy!" — setting up what promises to be a genuinely creepy supernatural threat for the Boy of Steel. Kurt Schaffenberger's pencils and Dick Giordano's inks give the scene a clean yet unsettling energy, and with two complete stories inside, this issue delivers solid value for any fan of Superboy's Smallville adventures.
