    The authors consider a nonlinear Volterra integral equation of the second kind in the interval [0,1]. They prove that a simple interpolated finite element Galerkin scheme produces a global superconvergence in the \(L^{\infty}\)-norm. A local superconvergence of iterated finite element solutions is investigated, as well. As a by-product, an a posteriori error estimator is obtained.
