"The Impossible Man!"
&
"A Visit With The Fantastic Four!"
The opening story is mostly fluff. The Impossible Man, a nameless alien from the planet Poppup, arrives on earth for a vacation. He's got the ability to instantly "evolve" into any form, making him the most powerful being on the planet. Because, you see, he can change into anything he wants and is virtually impervious to harm. Just don't ask where the water came from when he turned into a giant water balloon and douses Johnny.
"I'm mortified," indeed.
Luckily, the Impossible Man is a bit of a dork who just wants to be entertained.
