Description

And the controversy rages on.... What's considered a true 1st appearance? Cover appearance? Shadowy silhouette? Full figure appearance? I say whichever page you happen to have wins 😜. And if you disagree then atleast we all know the origin page of his leather jacket... Now thats tough to beat.

IMHO, this page IS what should be considered as the 1ST appearance page and an amazing one at that ! Congrats on adding another gem to your crown of a collection !

This is it. They even named him Superbo. First Superbo. Now you need to track down first Super Luke, Super Uncle Jesse, and Super Daisy, Super Enos, Super Flash, Super Boss Hogg, Super Roscoe, and Super Cooter. Grummett knew this was going to be big and slow plays it more than he would generallee.

Well, you definitely have the first appearance of Superboy's right bicep to fist, right & left knees, shins and feet, upper back and silhouetted right side of the face, plus the first appearance of around 20% of his leather jacket. No one can argue that! It's a very fun page, man, congrats.
