"Hot-Rod!", script by Bill Gaines (co-plot) and Al Feldstein (co-plot and script), art by Jack Kamen; Amos and Sally are driving by a lake when a strangely garbed man jumps up on the running board of their car and drops a package in the back seat; Later, Amos looks at the package, postmarked May 15, 2053, and discovers something called a trans-dimensional transporter inside; Thinking it to be some sort of gadget to soup up his hot-rod, Amos installs the device, traveling into the future.
