Captain Sternn #[nn]

In "Le Dilemme Devolutionnaire," Aldo Gorney's experiment goes hilariously awry when he accidentally turns his pet lizard Scooter into a Stegosaurus—only to find himself stranded outside the spaceship, flash-frozen and destined to become a snack. The absurd chaos of mistaken science and interstellar logistics unfolds in this sharp, funny sci-fi tale from Captain Sternn.

In "The Potty's Over," Jo finds her bathtime peace shattered when her husband interrupts, leading to a violent clash that ends with his death in the bathroom. What begins as a grim relief turns sinister when, days later, the decomposed remains of her husband rise from the septic tank, drawn back to her by a twisted bond—and now seeking vengeance.
