			Clive Handforth makes a major appearance in [[the Journey Home]] DLC. After Larry Da Vinci's reunion party invitations are lost across [[Craftworld]], [[Swoop]] travels to the Factory Of A Better Tomorrow to retrieve those lost within the factory. Clive's factory has seen a resurgence since the Negativitron's defeat, and he has apparently risen to a comfortable position as manager; Clive spectates Swoop's progress as she restores the factory from lockdown. Clive is one of multiple creator curators that later joins the reunion party in [[the Gardens]].

Clive ~~makes no attempt to reclaim~~ the ~~factory himself, choosing instead~~ to ~~hide away and wallow in his own misery~~.		Clive Handforth is a frequent reoccurring character through the latter half of LittleBigPlanet 2's story, with the majority of his appearances being in the Factory Of A Better Tomorrow and [[Eve's Asylum]]. He makes his first appearance in the Factory Of A Better Tomorrow, where [[Sackboy]] and [[Larry Da Vinci]] find him devastated by the destruction of his factory by [[the Negativitron]]. While the Alliance seeks out the [[Sackbot\|Sackbot]] army trapped within the factory walls, Sackboy helps dispatch the invading [[meanies]] and reclaim Clive's creation from the Negativitron's control. Clive, uplifted by this victory, joins the Alliance on their journey up to [[Avalonia]].

	~~After arriving at~~ [[~~Victoria~~'s ~~Laboratory]] too late,~~ [[~~Sackboy~~]] ~~and~~ [[~~Larry Da Vinci~~]] ~~arrive at~~ the ~~factory in pursuit of the remaining brainwashed Sackbots~~. ~~After recounting~~ the ~~Negativitron's attack on his factory~~, Clive ~~joins the pair in saving the remaining Sackbots from captivity.

Clive is seldom seen around Avalonia, as [[Avalon Centrifuge]] brushes him aside to do menial labour while he and Da Vinci tend to Sackboy's pilot training. After the Negativitron attacks Avalonia and downs [[Huge Spaceship]], the Alliance decides on retrieving renowned inventor [[Dr. Herbert Higginbotham]] to fix the situation. However, the doctor, ailing from a meanie infection contracted at Clive's factory, is contained inside [[Eve's Asylum\|Eve's Asylum For The Mentally Alternative]] and out of the Alliance's immediate reach. Clive, wracked with guilt about Dr. Higginbotham's state, joins Sackboy on a voyage to Eve's Asylum to liberate the doctor.
