Creepy Worlds #222
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "When the Earth Was Young!", two alien visitors—exiled for their intolerance of other life—land in the quiet town of Hog Hollow and test humanity through the eyes of young Clem. Written by Shane O'Shea and brought to life with vivid, expressive art by Ogden Whitney (pencils and inks), this 1984 Alan Class classic captures a bizarre, offbeat encounter where Kentucky Lightning, skunks, and angry hornets prove too much for even interstellar minds to endure. The cover, also by Whitney, perfectly captures the story’s quirky, otherworldly tone.
In "Clem Never Does Anything Big!", a quiet young man from Hog Hollow finds himself at the center of an interstellar test when two alien visitors arrive, convinced Earth’s inhabitants are too hostile to coexist with. Written by an unknown hand and illustrated by an unknown artist, the story follows Clem’s bewildered encounter with extraterrestrial observers who mistake Kentucky Lightning, skunks, and a swarm of hornets for the planet’s most dangerous threats—leaving them with a very different verdict than they expected.
