In "Uncouth Sweet Tooth or B.O. Go Home!", Peter Porker, the Spectacular Spider-Ham faces a galactic guest from beyond—literally—when an alien named B.O. crashes into the Daily Beagle office, sparking chaos and confusion. With help from Jonah and the interns, Peter must deal with a creature whose appetite knows no bounds, all while candy kingpins Rhesus and Crawdad send Woodchuck Morris on a mission to bring B.O. down. Written by Steve Mellor and illustrated by Joe Albelo, with inks by Pierre Fournier, colors by Julianna Ferriter, and letters by Janice Chiang, this 1986 adventure features a delightfully absurd twist on alien encounters, all wrapped in a cover by Joe Albelo.

Uncouth Sweet Tooth or B.O. Go Home!
17 pp · Humor, Anthropomorphic-Funny Animals, Superhero
Orson Whales (introduction)Mr. Rhesus (introduction)Mr. Crawdad (introduction)The Specialist [Woodchuck Morris] (introduction)

When a bizarre alien shows up at the Daily Beagle, only Orson Whales believes the threat—but no one’s listening. Peter Porker, Jonah, and the interns dub the creature B.O., only to realize he’s got a taste for everything, especially sweets. With candy makers Rhesus and Crawdad hiring Woodchuck Morris to track him down, chaos erupts at the candy factory, where B.O. becomes the center of a wild, sugary showdown.

The Asinine Torch vs. the Sub-Marsupial
5 pp · Humor, Anthropomorphic-Funny Animals, Superhero

In a delightfully absurd turn, the Torch teams up with the scheming Weaselly Whizzard for a wrestling match against the Sub-Marsupial—only to find their minds drifting to past adventures instead of punches. What follows is a chaotic, lighthearted brawl where old memories take center stage and the real fight is against forgetting how to have fun.
