Synopsis:
Star Boy leads a team to his home planet of Xanthu to help stop a criminal gang that has been successful in pulling off several daring robberies. The Legion guards a shipment of valuable artifacts that is a likely target for the gang. The crooks make an attempt at the robbery and are prepared for the Legionnaires. Despite this, Star Boy is able to stop them from escaping with the artifacts.

The Legionnaires correctly deduce that the crooks are Naltorian and are able to predict the future. During the next robbery, they use a teleportation ray on Star Boy. He is taken to a weightless environment where his powers are thought to be neutralized. He meets the gang leader, Yark Althu, who is the brother of Kenz Nuhor, a criminal who Star Boy killed years earlier. Yark seeks revenge and tries to kill Star Boy who uses his power to stay alive. Since the Legionnaire's power affects mass, not weight, they still function in the weightless environment. The other Legionnaires then arrive to round up the rest of the gang.
