Why are they on a random prison asteroid in the 20th century?

What role is Olsen going to get in the Anti-Superman gang?

Wow! That actually does make sense!

I'd skimmed through the previous year's issues of Action and Superman looking for an explanation, and hadn't thought to chefk Jimmy Olsen.

Yeah, that's clearly what leads into Action #342. I'm kind of shocked there isn't a footnote referring to that story.

Now I'm wondering if there's anything where the LSV escape the Prison Planetoid.

I had a look but it appears that the next appearance in print is the Shooter Adult Legion story in Adventure Comics #354-355. After that they mostly only appear in 30th Century stories. Their 20th Century exploits remain unresolved.

Thanks for researching that.

What an interesting little continuity digression.
