The New Adventures of Superboy #28

Kurt Schaffenberger's cover for this 1982 DC issue captures a genuinely gripping moment: Superboy rockets skyward alongside two mysterious costumed figures — Kryptonian super-villains, the cover's speech bubbles tell us — while his adoptive parents, Ma and Pa Kent, desperately reach up to pull him back to Earth. The emotional tug-of-war between duty, identity, and family is written all over the scene, teased further by the story title "Our Son, the Super-Betrayer!" As a bonus, this issue also announces the start of a "Dial H for Hero" backup feature, with its own colorful hero figures previewed in the corner box.
