Superman and Superboy: "Year of the Comet"
Superman) sits on Earth's moon mourning the recent loss of his cousin, Kara). Suddenly, a spaceship carrying members of the Superman Revenge Squad passes over the moon and picks Superman up on their monitors. Taking advantage of the Man of Steel's current vulnerability, they fire a beam of energy at him, which transports him to a parallel dimension.
Superman arrives on the Earth of an alternate reality (known as Earth-Prime). He is aware of this planet and knows that Earth-Prime, unlike his own adoptive world, does not boast a cadre of super-powered beings. He flies over a small New England coastal community where he finds a young boy dressed in a costume similar to his own. He quickly discovers that this is Clark Kent), a non-powered teenager who is likewise the sole survivor of this reality's version of Krypton. Superman introduces himself to young Clark Kent.
Immediately, Clark's Kryptonian heritage manifests itself for the first time and he begins demonstrating feats of superhuman prowess that he was previously incapable of performing. Calling himself Superboy, he flies into action with Superman, and together they save a region known as Hampton beach from the effects of a tidal wave.
After averting the near-disaster, Superboy sets out to help his older counterpart return to his native dimension. To accomplish this, they must first stop a small invasion force of alien Polarians from wreaking havoc on Earth. Following a brief scuffle, Superman and Superboy use the Polarian technology to create a vibrational tuning device that opens a vortex back into the Earth-One reality.
Superman enters the vortex, but finds the Superman Revenge Squad waiting for him. As he comes through, they zap him a second time with their space ship's weaponry.
