Intergalactic Spazz Club is the twentieth Ben 10 comic published in the Cartoon Network Action Pack series, published by DC and Cartoon Network. This comic appears in issue 20 of the series.
Plot[]
Ben, Gwen, and Max have all gone along to a fan convention, and -frustrated he can't attend all the conflicting timed events- turns into XLR8 to rush around the convention.
Before attending the creators' 'Schmegal and Shmooster' talk (about a show called 'Intergalactic Spazz Club' to do with alien powers that Ben relates to -as well as bird-like aliens), Ben runs to get the free titular first issue of the comic.
Once attended, the authors are asked two questions from a fan -called 'Trudy'-, then call the panel done. Later, Gwen and Ben see the fan at the booth with the shows creators, with a tail poking out of her skirt. About to pull a weapon on the two men, she's distracted and alarmed when Ben pulls on the feathers, knocking him back across the convention into another booth.
Ben gets up and disturbingly morphs into Cannonbolt, proceeding to knock Trudy -now carrying the two authors- down. Trudy refers to him correctly as an Arburian Pelarota, before transforming into a bird like fire breathing alien creature called a 'Flokcrow'. Her and her newly revealed flokmen allies capture the two authors; Schmegal and Shmooster, referring to the two as 'Meessmen'. After being saved by Ben, the two reveal themselves to him as a rat-like alien race called the Meesmen.
Through the ceiling, a group of telekinetic, possibly telepathic aliens called the 'Goalatarians' come to save the two Meesmen, and proceed to capture the Flokcrows.
After greeting Ben, the Goalatarians leave with the Folkcrows, and the two Meesmen morph back into their human selves, promising Ben that they'll write him into their stories (revealed to be true) if he keeps their secret.
