...Shall Ne'er Burn So Bright...
December 1st, 1987
"Shall Ne'er Burn So Bright..." Part 2 of 2. The conclusion of the Starfinger saga as one of the Legion's mightiest foes takes on the entire Legion with devastating results!
The Legion of Super-Heroes take the fight straight to Starfinger and his gang. Starfinger boasts two powerful servants, Starlight and Starbright, that fight against the Legion and hold their own, but the Legioin are able to defeat them. Rather than face utter defeat, Starfinger destroys his own headquarters so that the Legion would perish with him, but the Legion are able to escape in time. Believing that Starfinger died in the explosion, the Legion returns back to Earth. Colossal Boy was injured in the brawl and is forced to stay on sick leave from the team while he recovers.
