In "The Super-Spectacles Swipe!", Superboy and the Legion of Super-Heroes face their most mind-bending challenge yet when the villain Gorgli traps Tokyo in a phantom zone, forcing the team to journey back to Krypton for the only materials capable of stopping him. Written by Gerry Conway and illustrated by Joe Staton, with inks by Vince Colletta and colors by Gene D'Angelo, this 1979 adventure blends time-travel intrigue with classic Legion flair. The cover, a dynamic double-draw by Dick Giordano, captures the high-stakes urgency of the mission.

When Gorgli traps Tokyo in a phantom zone, the Legion of Super-Heroes races to Krypton’s past to retrieve the key materials needed to stop him—before time itself unravels. With Superboy, Cosmic Boy, Wildfire, Shadow Lass, and Shrinking Violet facing the weight of history, even the Kents and Jor-El’s legacy may not be enough to save the day.
