Extremely complex and highly sophisticated robots employed by Superboy to help him carry out his customary super-tasks and protect the secret of his dual identity. These so-called Super-Robots, which were constructed to resemble the Boy of Steel himself, as well as Clark Kent, were housed behind a secret panel in the basement of the Kent house in Smallville. (when Superboy becomes Superman, most of the Superboy Robots are de-activated or destroyed, see: Superboy Robot-6).

In October 1962, while exploring Superboy's secret trophy room in the Kent basement, Pete Ross accidentally damages the only Superboy robot left behind in Smallville while Superboy is off on a mission to the future. When a call comes in from Police Chief Parker, Pete dons an anti-gravity belt and a Superboy costume to respond to the emergency. For the next day, disguised as a Superboy robot and using his own ingenuity to simulate Superboy's powers, Pete impersonates the robot in a variety of situations, rescuing people from disasters large and small. Finally, just before Superboy's return, Mon-El journeys from the future and repairs the damaged robot just in time for it to put out a fire in the Kent's kitchen (SB No.100/5: "The Day Pete Ross Became a Robot!").

Many years after the time of active Superboy Robots, an old Superboy Robot tape is accidentally used to program a Supergirl Robot (see "Linda Lee Robot"), causing it to journey to Smallville Orphanage and have confused memories of Superman's past (Adv No. 396/2, Aug 1970: "The Mystery of the Super-Orphan").
