The Lost Superboy Suit!!! Help Me...

[Sabaition]

Okay I was talking to a friend about Superboy and mentioned a issue were he wore a YELLOW suit made by his mom. My friend NEVER saw this and doesn't bleve it. SOMEBODY PLEEEEASE. There has to b someone that has this issue or a scan I can show him. While i've found references about the "Yellow" suit I can't find a picture. Now I think it was part of a story on the first time Superboy used his powers, druing Halloween maybe cause his mom had just made the suit.

Does anyone have a scan or at least recall the now LOST super suit, lol...

I posted this in the superman section but since more peeps r always on this forum I'm doin it twice and crossing my fingers.

I remember the story... I *think* it was a back-up in the 80s Adventures of Superboy title (though I'm not sure) - however, the GCD is down right now, and I don't see it flagged on the cover over on Mile High (though that's not to say it isn't).

I'm pretty certain it was drawn by Kurt Schaeffenburger (sp) - and it was one of those "lets explain something that doesn't need to be" stories, in this case why they chose the colour scheme they did for Superboys costume, given that there were other options.

As I recall, he can't have a yellow costume because it repels the yellow suns rays, and he isn't as powerful as normal... one of those pseudo-science kind of things. Don't remember who wrote it, though if my timeline is right, it would likely be in the first couple of years of that particular title.

Hope that helps....

It was a story in Superman Family. Superboy wanted a more modern looking costume, so Martha made one from the left over blankets in his rocket ship. Since most people had black & white TVs, they didn't know the difference. He soon learned that there were problems wearing a primarily yellow suit and changed back to the classic.
