Professor Vakox (or Va-Kox)
A renegade Kryptonian scientist who was banished into the Phantom Zone prior to the death of Krypton as punishment for having contaminated Great Krypton Lake with a vial of his “life force†formula, thereby spawning the creation in the lake of a hideous multi-headed lizard-like monster. “If lever get out of the Phantom Zone,†vows Professor Vakox in January 1962, “I’d create terrible monsters who would destroy whole cities!â€
Indeed, Professor Vakox and his fellow prisoners seem on the verge of escaping from the Phantom Zone during this period after “the electrical ions of the Aurora Borealis have opened a small hole in the Phantom Zone which is steadily widening,†threatening to release the exiled “super-villains†into the earthly dimension as soon as it becomes “big enough for the Phantom Zone criminals to squeeze through!†Alerted to the threat, however, by their friend Mon-El, Superman, Supergirl, and Krypto the Super Dog use the combined power of their X-ray vision to burn up the Aurora Borealis, thereby sealing up the opening through which Professor Vakox and his cohorts had hoped to make their escape (Act No. 284: “The Babe of Steel!â€).(TGSB)
