Superboy #13/1981

In "Superboy im Show-Business," a charismatic talent manager arrives in Smallville with a voice that holds a strange, hypnotic power over the teenage hero. When an alien phantom threatens the town, Superboy uses that very influence—unexpectedly—to turn the tide. Written by Cary Bates and illustrated by Kurt Schaffenberger, with inks by Dave Hunt and colors by Jerry Serpe, this 1981 issue features a cover by Schaffenberger and Hunt that captures the story’s blend of suburban charm and cosmic intrigue.
