Ok another rest and I will be back with "Earthwar" soon. Bronze age is harder to track down and harder to summarize I assume this will get even more cumbersome when we hit 5YL

"But it takes a special kind of will to devote your life to bettering the existance of others -- and in the end, that will must prevail -- and the wanton hunger for personal power must prove a final, fatal flaw!"

In Superboy and the Legion of Super-Heroes 236 (11/22/1977) We see the first signs Brainy is headed for a burnout as he complains about never getting to take a break and is continually brushed off. Trust me you want to take care of your Brainy.

In the second story of Superboy 235 Brainy is on trial accused of denying a man access to the "psycho beast" and instead using its powers to save Wildfire. The twist is once saved Wildfire could save the other man, thus saving both instead of one.

Superboy 235 (10/20/77) tries to make the us believe Briany is up to villiany by brainwashing Superboy into not remembering something but it turns out the thing is a longevity serum that Clark would be too tempted to use on his loved ones changing the timeline

But Rond understood. He knew to send Rugarth through the same experiment but with more power to keep him trapped in the cycle of time.

The Legion sets out on different paths to find a way to save Rond and stop the Infinite Man. During this part we see that both Star Boy and Brainy have the same nervous tic of twisting their flight ring. I like to think Jesse Rath was inspired by this panel

Pack to poor Professor Rugarth of the Time Institute. He has the utmost faith in the genius of Brainiac 5 and former child prodigy Rond Vidar but they make sure the reader knows he is fully aware of the risks which will become very important a decade later.

In another highly unethical move Rond Vidar with the help of Brainy wants to prove time is a circle & has modified his time tech to send a person on a full trip through the cycle of time. Prof. Jaxon Rugarth of the time institute is the victim... er volunteer

I was going to write something witty about Rond but my 7 year old just walked in and wanted to know why Brainy, Nura and Star Boy were all showing their butts but not Wildfire so I had to explain Wildfire doesn't actually have a butt.

Superboy and the Legion of Super-Heroes 233 (8/23/1977) Starts out with the Sklarians (all female group of pirates from a moderately technologically advanced planet who always try to steal Brainy's gizmos) trying to steal Brainy's super important gizmo du jour
