Notes: Issued in the centennial of the first year of the American Civil War. Despite the title, there is no time travel. As Superboy fails to save the doubles he moans that it's impossible to change history, but in fact there is no history -- everything happening is unfolding for the first time.

Characters: Superboy; Jim Marsh; Lionel Marsh; "Sparkle" Smith; Krypto; henchmen; people of Bigville

Synopsis: "Sparkle" Smith forces Jim to impersonate Superboy, else "Sparkle" will reveal that Jim's father is an ex-convict. "Sparkle" uses the disguised Jim to con donations from the people of Bigville, but Superboy turns the tables in such a way that the gang is not only arrested but discredited, leaving Mr. Marsh's secret safe.

Synopsis: After encountering a fire-breathing metal-eater monster in space, Superboy and Krypto become voraciously hungry, eating even rugs, park benches, paint, and iodine. Superboy finally realizes that he's compelled to eat green objects while Krypto eats red -- the fire monster must have eaten red and green kryptonite. They both set themselves to eat distant moons -- one green, one red -- until their hunger is satisfied.
