Set Description:
Deal with some Bizarro circumstances.
The Pearl Jam of sets and character, "Troubled souls unite! We've got ourselves tonight. Young lover I stand! It was their idea, I proved to be a man!" As some rumblings and ramblings comes in the younger rendition of an established Superman!
Yes, these harken back to those more spirited times, and hey! We had young Indiana Jones on television as a kid, too, so we know the allure of wanting to spotlight early days in adventurous attitudes with a bit more naive experiences, as no one can enjoy a know it all for long.
Superboy! With those hijinks and zipping around the earth world to soak up the knowledge, grow in encouragement, and in order to help others with the same ideas and ideals that aren't as "super in nature", and also while helping those who can't help themselves and disciplining those who are "always helping themselves!"
It is a bit of a "ramble on", as ~ Led Zepplin ~ put it!
Boy Scout's honor and the singularity of mind, comes by way of the Superboy!
To tell tale of the younger generation of the Silver or any other age, and to turn the tail of any hide that would become mischievous and harm themselves or others. Among those ideals and ideas all instilled by Ma and Pa Kent, with the whooping's of ethics that will eventually grow this "super-being" into Clark Kent a mild-mannered reporter. These scoops of lessons that bring about the family unit, and when a world was more explorable by going beyond your front porch.
Still as accessible, but it took more the spirit of adventure for the pursuit of happiness and the American Way!

Origin and 1st appearance of Bizarro. Otto Binder story. George Papp art. Curt Swan and Stan Kaye cover. A working man's hero and aiming to please, whether by example or by any means necessary, as this issue shows a Topsy Turvy character where in is a description of an upside downturn a phrase, "That's the Tops!" A meaning of both some excellence and the mainstream, as Bizarro finds himself at work in the world and with his essential back to it all while trying his best to pull it up by the blue-collar bootstraps! With his similar skin in the game and color trying to pass himself off not as a copy, but instead the real deal, the better choice, and the "tops" of the rungs in any ladder, only to then ponder his own established well-being as a character with morals and morale. Bizarro's natural efficiency is in this world unnatural, which is too off brand to be seen the same as, "a supernatural Superboy!"
A bit of scattershot play here with a modern raw I own and picked up for cheap. First appearance of King Shark to "show" what I grew up with, and this newer Superboy would, too, deal with some Bizarro circumstances but by mostly being a 90's cliche for DC!
Complete with a back cover picture of the prescreen pass to the movie before released publicly of, "Working Man!" Jason Statham does it up right again and again showing the aptitude necessary for everyday living, for a friend is a friend forever when the cards fall down to calling upon Him who is able to save without partiality. Issue #100 as well showing the past generations are superhero's as well and rightly called, no two ways about it!
Grader Notes:
readers crease front cover;
multiple crease right center of cover;
