    Default Solicit sleuthing: any classic Superboy collection?

    I faintly remember a trade listed on major sites that seemed to have More Fun and some early Adventures stories. I don't remember why I didn't attempt to pull trigger but the ONLY thing I see now is the anniversary trade with random stories under the banner as a greatest hits. I mean DC cancels all the time based on pre order but it'll drive me nuts not knowing what this was.

    I believe you're thinking of this:

    Yeeessss thanks so much. I gave up on this thread lol

    But I guess it's what I expected, DC collections without huge demand are rough even six months later. $70 isn't even the worst case

    So by the way I did hunt it down for cover price and I love it. Hardcover, nice paper quality and reproduction. Mid 40s Superboy was a really fun niche I enjoy the experimental feel and seeing him at essentially his youngest as a regular protagonist

    I thought about getting this when it came out but didn't. Kind of regretting it now.

    It's hard for me to believe it was really 13 years ago tbh. But at least there are definitely many sellers out there.





    I dunno. The pages are just the slightest brown so obviously, the Archives will last for considerably longer. But I just like this print style more for whatever difference

    I just bought this book myself. I kind of wish there had been more of them, but any and all Superboy reprints are kind of a rarity. The Legion stuff is relatively accessible of course. But that's not quite the same thing.

    DC is pretty bad about discontinuing reprints so I appreciate the presentation here not teasing any follow up.

    I want early 70s Superboy and Supergirl but those Silver Age legion and Supergirl collections are almost certainly the end of the road

    I love how Clark hasn't started using glasses yet. "Say, Superboy looks a lot like the Kent kid!"

    Wish I gotten SUPERBOY GREATEST TEAM-UPS.
    The cover is so boring, I decided not to buy it back in 2010(?).
