Synopsis for "Kragoom! The Creature Who Caught an Astronaut"
An exiled gaseous alien criminal named Kragoom waits in Earth orbit for the first human astronaut in order to enter his body and possess his mind, returning to Earth as a conqueror. However, the first astronaut turns out to be a wealthy cheat who paid a safecracker to obtain the test results from NASA's selection process and altered them so that he would be chosen as the first astronaut. He physically is unable to cope with space travel and develops amnesia under the stress. Kragoom, trapped in the human's mind, suffers the same fate as the spacecraft returns to Earth.

Synopsis for "The Sorcerer"
Aaron appeared out of nowhere at a gas station in the American South-West. He first met Lucy Scott and her father, and applied for a job at their station as a handyman. Aaron was hired instantly when he began to fix things that were unable to be repaired in a seemingly-miraculous fashion. He was caught many times by Lucy or her father staring off into darkness, until one day, three wizards showed up and attempted to take Aaron away with them. Apparently, they had been pursuing Aaron for quite some time, and he had no intention of going with them. The four of them began to fight each other using mystical skills. Aaron was able to negate the three wizards' efforts combined, and the only thing they were able to do was take his powers and leave. He then remained at the station to start a normal happy life with Lucy.
