In "When the Earth Was Young!", two alien visitors—exiled for rejecting other worlds’ inhabitants—arrive on Earth and test humanity’s threat level by capturing young Clem in Hog Hollow. Written by Shane O'Shea and brought to life with expressive art by Ogden Whitney (pencils and inks), this classic tale unfolds as the aliens encounter Kentucky Lightning, skunks, and furious hornets—each more bewildering than the last—before fleeing in alarm. The cover, also by Whitney, captures their wide-eyed retreat with sharp, dynamic detail.

In "Clem Never Does Anything Big!", a quiet boy from Hog Hollow finds himself at the center of an interstellar test when two alien visitors arrive, convinced Earth is too hostile for their kind. As they subject Clem to a series of increasingly absurd trials—only to be undone by Kentucky Lightning, a swarm of skunks, and a furious hornet attack—the aliens realize some planets are better left uninvaded.
