War of the Species

The military has given funding to an artificial intelligence project. T.J., Clark, and Lana visit the project to get a story for the Shuster Herald. They discover a dangerous android and are narrowly saved from death by Superboy. T.J. had taken pictures of the machine and the leader of the project took it, so T.J. returns to the project to get more shots. He is captured so that the android can undergo a final test against Superboy. Superboy arrives to save him, and discovers that the android's creator has his own secret. He too is an android from another world who created the other android to be his kiling machine, since he was programmed never to kill. He is badly damaged in Superboy's battle and a self-destruct program is initiated. Superboy flies him away as he explodes.
