The Legionnaires ponder a photo in their archives featuring a Legionnaire no one remembers, Anti-Lad. The readers are told how a time traveller from the far-distant future saw Superboy being rejected by the Legion in his initial tryout and went to the Legion's time to make sure they gave the Boy of Steel a second chance.
