In Superboy #8 (1950), we get a glimpse into Superboy's early days as a Superbaby. Written by Bill Finger, this comic features Ma and Pa Kent looking through a photo album and reminiscing about the time they found Clark and his early adventures dealing with his powers. But that's not all, folks! The issue also includes a hilarious gag strip by Henry Boltinoff called "Little Pete," as well as an action-packed story about Superboy taking on Humpty Dumpty the Hobby Robber in "The Flags of Crime!" Plus, there's a public service message about the importance of home, a camera article, and some fun gag strips by Lit Win and Boltinoff. But perhaps the highlight of the issue is the story by Ed Hamilton, "The Boy Without a World!" In this thrilling tale, Superboy must help a young boy who has been transported from another dimension and is unable to return home. And let's not forget the Superboy's Workshop feature, where we learn how to use a whistling lariat. And if all that wasn't enough, we also get a heartwarming moment between Superboy and his mother, Ma Kent, when she can't keep a surprise from him thanks to his x-ray vision. So if you're a fan of Superboy or just want to dive into some classic comics, Superboy #8 (1950) is definitely worth a read!
