Synopsis:
A Kryptonian Thought-Beast has arrived on Earth. It has escaped Krypton’s fate because an alien ship removed it from the planet prior to its destruction. The beast has super powers in Earth’s solar system and is stronger than Superboy. The Boy of Steel is unable to defeat the monster, so he constructs an asteroid which resembles the Scarlet Jungle of Krypton. He lures the beast to the artificial jungle where it believes it is home again.
