The Lad Who Wrecked the Legion

Alerted to a bank robbery, the Legionnaires find that another youth has arrived and stopped the criminals by creating a frightening illusion of the getaway car turning into a monster. The youth introduces himself as Command Kid and, though he’s evasive about his origin, the Legion invites him to join anyway. They soon regret this decision as Command Kid behaves arrogantly and upstages his teammates every chance he gets. Feeling demoralized, the Legionnaires express a desire to have greater powers such as Command Kid’s. He gives them each a pill that places them in suspended animation and tells them that when they wake up, they will be just like him .
