Synopsis for "The Lair of Brainiac!"Edit

Superboy once again uses his mind-prober ray and Total Recall power to remember an adventure during his babyhood as Kal-El of Krypton. He recalls how the space villain Brainiac kidnapped him, intending to ransom him to Jor-El for an invention of the latter’s. But Brainiac’s ship teleports to a yellow solar system, where Kal-El gains super-powers and causes such havoc that Brainiac and his henchmen gladly restore him to his home, without Jor-El ever knowing he was gone.

NotesEdit

• "The Lair of Brainiac!" was reprinted in Superman in the Sixties.
