Superboy - Complete! 0

[Silver]

[1950's war comics]

Last Cardy issue #206 is one of the better 25 cent covers IMO !

[Silver]

Continuing on with the Grell era

 

[Silver]

Grell / Shooter

 

[Silver]

Mixture of writers, more Grell art

 

[Silver]

Grell covers only. This was some really good reading and comparable to any of the better comic stories from the era. Maybe not X-Men good, bud pretty good overall.

Grell did design Dawnstar, even if he wasn't drawing the book at the time. 

Pretty sure 225 was the first Paul Levitz issue; he's probably the definitive LSH writer (although you could argue for Shooter).

Do you happen to have All-New Colllectors' Edition C-55, by the way?  It may not technically be an issue of Superboy, but you couldn't tell from the cover (other than the size, of course!)

And couldn't resist sharing this; if you want me to remove it from your thread I will:

No, that's great! I have a Grell Warlord myself, it's very cool.

What, no love for the Whitman versions?

I don't bother with them unless I spot them cheap at a show, I've only got 2 or 3...

[Silver]

Superboy 250. I always liked it when DC noted anniversary issues with images of earlier issues. 

 

[Silver]

Here we go!

 

[Silver]

The final issue....30 years 1949-1979 Superboy 258

 

[Silver]

Superboy Annual 1

 

[Silver]

This issue was a one shot that you could only buy as a direct edition. I bought this copy new.

 

[Silver]

The numbering for Superboy continued as the Legion. Superboy went on to star in a new book called the New Adventures of Superboy, I have most of those, but it's not a very good series.

That's it folks, thanks for hanging with me and celebrating the Boy of Steel and his thirty year run!

if I ever get an Adventure 247 I may do a Legion of Super-Heroes complete, it's the only issue I need to have every Legion appearance from the 1950's - 1990's!

Great run! Thanks for sharing. Hope you can do a Legion one someday.
