“The Man Who Chained the Earth!”

The mystery surrounding Reflecto — billed right on the cover as "the most mysterious member" of the Legion — reaches a fever pitch in this July 1981 issue, with a glowing golden figure carrying an unconscious Legionnaire aloft while stunned teammates look on in awe and alarm below. George Pérez's cover art crackles with energy, framing the luminous, caped Reflecto against a burst of light as several Legion members — including a bare-chested hero recoiling and a blonde Legionnaire among the group — react with unmistakable urgency. It's a wonderfully dramatic composition that makes "Behold: Reflecto" feel like exactly the answer fans had been clamoring for.
