Review/plot:
Still on the road to San Francisco, Jessica and Lindsay stumble across a small town that has been keeping aliens captured.

The big green one is the little one's pet.

Jessica and Lindsay are imprisoned as well, but more aliens (the "Tsyrani") show up and free them and mindwipe the townspeople.

That's a very wordy page, even for Claremont.

A weird little story, more in line with the early Wolfman stuff, but not really what you'd want out of Claremont.

Was the story's title taken from Dion and the Belmonts' classic rock 'n' roll standard "The Wanderer"? In addition, as wordy as Claremont was with that one page, it still runs behind Don McGregor in terms of verbosity.
