Synopsis:
Adam Strange returns to Rann with a special metal box containing a present for Alanna. The metal box is then taken over by Thanas Pral, inventor of the flying lens in wraith form. Pral intends to help Adam Strange to prove he has reformed. However, radiation from the Zeta-Beam has given the box an evil intelligence. When Pral animates the box into robot form, he becomes evil.

The robot challenges Adam Strange. Adam finds a way to defeat it using Alpha particles. Pral is able to escape from it, but is still consumed by the evil force. Adam cures Pral, who then devotes himself to helping Adam, serving as Sardath’s assistant.
