The New Adventures of Superboy #39

In "A World Without Christmas," Superboy takes Bash on a journey to a parallel dimension where Smallville exists—but without the spirit of the holiday. There, the town is a shadow of itself, ravaged by war and pollution, its people hardened by fear and distrust. The story explores what happens when a season of hope vanishes, and the quiet cost of a world that forgot how to celebrate.

In "Beyond a Shadow of a Doubt!", Rock and Roll—Chris and Vicky—race to save a bus in a high-stakes rescue, only to realize their transformation mirrors a sketch Nick Stevens recently made. As the mysterious Silhouette unsettles the police, a sinister double of Detective King emerges, casting doubt on who can be trusted.
