Superboy #31
In "Kein Entkommen aus dem Todeskreis," Superboy faces a relentless assault as Legionnaires fall one by one to an invisible enemy. With Brainiac 5 desperate and the Legion’s fate hanging in the balance, Karateboy’s sudden appearance offers a fleeting reprieve—only for Brainiac 5 to realize the mysterious device may be a trick from the Controllers, a group the Legion once aided. Written by Jim Shooter and Mort Weisinger, with art by Jim Shooter and Curt Swan, and inks by Sheldon Moldoff, this 1985 issue delivers tense, high-stakes action. The cover, a striking piece by Neal Adams, captures the moment of Karateboy’s arrival in dramatic detail.
When Brainiac 5 unveils the rebuilt Legion Clubhouse—still scarred from the attack by the Finsteren Fünf—Superboy and his teammates receive a mysterious package containing an odd machine. As the members of the Todeskreis prepare their assault on Earth, the planet remains vulnerable, its defense system still missing two crucial keys held by the enemy.
In a desperate stand against the overwhelming forces of the Todeskreis, the Legion finds itself on the brink—until Karateboy’s sudden arrival offers a crucial moment of respite. With the help of his allies, including the ever-resourceful Brainiac 5, the young hero must unravel the mystery behind a strange device delivered by the Controller, whose past ties to the Legion may hold the key to their survival.
In a gripping tale from Superboy #31, the young hero confronts Klax-Ar, a Kryptonian fugitive who claims responsibility for Krypton’s destruction. As the past and present collide, Klax-Ar warns Superboy that Earth faces the same fate unless they leave—leaving Clark Kent torn between his home and the burden of a legacy he never asked for.
