- Synopsis: The Thing from the point of view of the Thing.

- Comments: Has an entry on the creature from Who Goes There?, with an artist's impression of the monster that is arguably more scary than the one in The Thing.
Stories focused on the family and the friendly relationships of the cast. Plot-focused stories or light day-in-the-life stories. Pretty much anything that isn't focused on romance.
