In "The Creature in the Black Light!", the Rovers face an alien threat unlike any before—lizard invaders wielding a time-weapon that’s already altered two of their own, turning Homer into an aged man and Karel into a teenager. Written by Gardner Fox and illustrated with dynamic precision by Sid Greene, this 1964 Strange Adventures standout blends sci-fi suspense with the eerie glow of a black light, all wrapped in a striking cover by Murphy Anderson.

In "How Can Time Be Stopped?", the Rovers race against a terrifying countdown as lizard aliens unleash a time-weapon that’s already rewritten the ages of their own crew—Homer now moves like an elder, Karel like a child. With reality itself unraveling, the team must find a way to halt the weapon before time collapses entirely.
