Superboy and Krypto are playing in space when grabbed by an energy beam and drawn to a spaceship. The commander, Zzerz, describes how a creature they had collected got exposed to radiation, and grew huge with destructive eye beams, escaping their ship. He asks Superboy to help recapture it, giving him a growth reversal ray gun. Superboy and Krypto meet up with the creature on a nearby planetoid, and start the reversal process, but the creature destroys the gun. Superboy then encases the creature in some rock that is impervious to the destructive rays, and returns it to the spaceship.
