Superboy #7/1980
In "Der Gefängnis-Planet," Superboy and the Legion of Super-Heroes face a haunting mystery when they discover a drifting, injured being in space—its distress signal leading them to a sentient planet that has become a prison of its own making. Written by Gerry Conway and illustrated by James Sherman, this 1980 issue blends cosmic wonder with moral weight, as the heroes confront a world that refuses to die, even as it threatens to consume everything. The cover by James Sherman captures the eerie grandeur of the planet’s desperate existence.
Superboy is stunned when three mysterious teens—Kosmoboy, Blitzjunge, and Saturngirl—approach him, claiming to know his secret identity and representing the Legion of Super-Heroes from the future. Invited to undergo three trials to prove himself worthy, Superboy [Clark Kent] faces challenges that test his courage, strength, and resolve—only to learn that his failures were the true test all along. With Jonathan Kent watching from the sidelines, the young hero finds himself on the path to joining a legacy far greater than he imagined.
