Ron and his dad are talking about Ron's desire to become a space pilot. While they talk, a space ship lands. When a weird alien alights from the ship, Ron's dad kills it with a blaster. After Ron graduates and becomes a pilot, he is tasked with investigating the planet where the ship originated from. He comes to an Earth-like world that rotates in the opposite direction as Earth. This causes time to move backward. While he is doing research he develops sores on his body that begin to mutate him. He returns to Earth and comes out of his ship only to be killed by his dad. He was the alien!

An astronaut from Earth named Tarlton visits a planet populated by orange and blue robots who hope to join the Galactic Republic. As he tours the planet, he realizes that blue robots are treated horribly and given fewer rights than the orange robots, despite the fact that they are identical except for the color of their exterior. Tarlton decides that because of this, the planet will not be allowed in the Galactic Republic. In the final panel Tarlton removes his helmet, revealing that he is black.
