Comment(s):
- This story occurs three months after Superboy went public.
- According to Martha Kent, Clark has been raised by her and Jonathan for over six years at the time of this story.
- After the story of his Kryptonian origins had gone public, Congress voted to grant special citizenship.
- Superboy makes mention of previously confiding with President Eisenhower about his Kryptonian origins, placing this story between 1952-1960, though allowing for the sliding timeline needed to put Superboy's history in perspective, the actual Administration can vary.
