DC Comics started the trend when Batman got his “Boy Wonder,” Robin (Detective Comics #38, April 1940).
The youthful comics audience loved a hero the same age as them, so it wasn’t long before DC began printing stories about Superman when he was but a youth — Superboy.
A full feature is available for you at Golden Age Comics.

I have very little use for the cell phone and I do not text. I have more important things to do with my life.
I’ve had to accept the fact that both my wife and I need cell phones since we travel so much, but we both have no-contract, pay-as-you-go phones.
When people find out about this, they scoff. We are fools for paying more when we could get a sweet annual contract from one of the major companies for only a few cents a day.
Of course, I’ve never heard of anyone who is happy with their phone contract. They all seem to want a 2-year committment which is way too long when technology advances as quickly as it does.
Then they end up paying penalties for ending the contract early and switching to something else. And if they have complaints about service or features, they can’t just switch immediately — they feel they are stuck.
So who’s the sucker, Mr. Stucker?
Well, now with a new round of regulations giving phone companies the right to charge for the amount of internet usage you access, people are really getting uptight.
I just saw a great article that provides a loophole where you can get out of your AT&T contract immediately with no penalty.
I hope this eases the sting of being stuck with a major phone contract.

Every musical genre has its fans and its detractors. But every genre deserves respect.
People who turn up their noses as — say, Polkas — will sniff and tell you, “There is no such thing as a GOOD polka!”
Yet I can take you to certain towns and show you crowds of people dancing and drinking and having a good time (and paying good money) to enjoy the polka.
I dabbled in heavy metal quite a few years ago and I think there is even a sample of my work on my music page (link is over in the right-hand column).
If your goal is to write heavy metal songs, you may want to check out “tips for writing diverse metal genres” over on the Ultimate Guitar website.
