Synopsis:
When a circus arrives in Smallville, Superboy quickly discovers that the performers are all aliens. When the ringmaster sees Superboy he insists that the Boy of Steel join the circus. Superboy refuses, prompting the ringmaster to send a powerful creature called the Jensha to threaten Smallville. Superboy is unable to stop the creature, so he gives in and joins the circus. Superboy performs for his hometown, then discovers a way to defeat the Jensha. Once he proves that the beast is tamed, Superboy is able to force the circus to leave Earth.
