Action comics #1046 (volume 1)

In his worm form, Byla attacks Superman and his companions. He grabs Kryl-Ux in his maw and drags him away. Superman saves Kryl-Ux, despite the latter telling him he should leave him to die. Kryl-Ux is severely injured, including losing an eye, so Superman tells the children to bandage his wounds and goes on alone. As Byla destroyed the bridge leading to the heart of the Necropolis, Superman reaches it by leaping across floating rocks, avoiding Byla as he goes.
