Superboy & the Legion of Super-Heroes #238

In "The Outlawed Legionnaires!", the Legion of Super-Heroes faces its greatest threat yet when the new United Planets President declares them illegal, scattering the team across the galaxy and into hiding. Written by Jim Shooter and illustrated by a team led by Curt Swan, this pivotal 1978 issue sees the heroes divided—some imprisoned on Takron-Galtos, others held on Earth, and the rest forced to operate in secret. The cover by Jim Starlin captures the tension of a team on the run, with the fate of the Legion hanging in the balance.
