In "Superboy's Report Card," Superboy faces a rare challenge: acing every grade in a single day to satisfy a truant officer and keep his secret identity safe. With art by Al Wenzel and inks by George Roussos, this 1949 adventure captures the young hero’s clever hustle through school life, all rendered in the classic style of the era. The cover, also by Al Wenzel, perfectly frames the moment with a playful, action-packed glimpse of the story’s premise.
