When a small sun appears, shooting off wild electrical currents which cause havoc on Earth, Superboy and Krypto fly off into space to investigate. They destroy the exploding sun and land on a nearby planet where they are told be the inhabitants there (who believe Superboy is the Boy-God of their prophecies) that the exploding sun and others like it are weapons used against them by another species living on the dark side of the planet. Superboy and Krypto distract the dragon-like creature on guard, save prisoners, and destroy the machine creating the small suns, and fly back to Earth.
