Part 2: "What Makes Kranus Run?"

This story continues in part in Challengers of the Unknown #48, in which the Doom Patrol teams up with the Challengers immediately following this story.

The Challengers of the Unknown appearance in this story is concurrent with page 16 of Challengers of the Unknown #48.

Synopsis:
Galtry, unaware of Gar Logan's identity as Beast Boy and secretly embezzling money from his inheritance, hires a hit-man to do away with the youngster. Discovering this, Beast Boy goes to the Doom Patrol for help and arrives just in time to join their mission to a remote island from which mysterious signals have been detected. There, they battle a supposed extraterrestrial robot despot called Kranus. Kranus is exposed as the Brain, leader of the Brotherhood of Evil, inhabiting a robotic disguise and manages to escape.

Back home, Galtry's hired killer changes his plans at the last moment, causing the Doom Patrol to disbelieve Beast Boy's story of an assassination plot against him. The Doom Patrol returns to headquarters only to receive an immediate distress call from the Challengers of the Unknown.
