Synopsis
A number of Legionnaires on Planet Hell look around themselves in horror as they realize that someone has brought ships to free the thousands of criminals imprisoned on the planet, who will soon be released from their cells, the power to which had been cut off when those ships destroyed the planet's power supply. Suddenly, the man who had told the Legionnaires he was the prison warden flees, and the Legionnaires find themselves about to be trampled by the freed prisoners.
The Legionnaires use their jet-packs to escape from the prisoners, and XS goes to check on their teammates who had been in the area that the escape ships had bombed, who turn out to be fine due to Cosmic Boy's creating a metallic shield over them all. Cosmic Boy and Brainiac 5 then deduce, correctly, that the person calling himself the prison warden was actually a faker, tricking them into exposing the power supply so that he could free the criminals.
Elsewhere on Planet Hell, the other Legionnaires knock out the pilots of the escape ships and destroy the escape ships so that the criminals don't escape the prison world. Elsewhere, the "warden" contacts his superiors and tells them that they will soon have thousands of criminals to use as an army for their own purposes. Suddenly, he is distracted by a loud noise.
The Legionnaires fight the freed criminals, and soon receive help from an arriving ship, which bombs the criminals. The ship's occupants reveal themselves to be the Workforce, which includes former Legionnaire Live Wire, who tells the Legionnaires that his team had come in pursuit of the ship's pilots, who had stolen weapons.
The two teams of heroes join forces and manage to knock out some of the criminals, and during the fight, Ultra Boy and Apparition discover an attraction for one another, and Brainiac 5 stands still and stares at the sky. The ship's pilots awaken and distribute the stolen weapons to the criminals, who were losing to the Legionnaires.
Shortly thereafter, though, the "warden" discovers that the access tunnel which allowed entry to and exit from Planet Hell had collapsed, and that they were all trapped there. Meanwhile, Cosmic Boy discovers that the air around them is getting hotter, and Brainiac 5 tells him that it was this phenomenon that he had been observing. He tells Cosmic Boy that, due to the destruction of the planet's power supply, the force-field shielding the planet from the surrounding star's heat will collapse in four hours, and that the access tunnel has collapsed, leaving them all trapped. Meanwhile, the newly-armed criminals round up the heroes with their weapons and take aim at them.
