Superboy #175

Superboy #175 (On Sale: April 6, 1971), has a cover by Neal Adams and Dick Giordano.

This issue features "Doomsday for a Super-Phantom" by Leo Dorfman, Bob Brown, and Murphy Anderson. Through a marriage of sorcery and cybernetics, Faustus Coven separates Superboy's spirit from his body, gives it telekinetic power, and makes it the servant of himself and young Asmo Coven. 

Superboy manages to get himself back into his body after a period of servitude, and Faustus Coven is destroyed by his own apparatus. Asmo, who has reformed, is taken to Smallville Orphanage by Superboy.
