Based on concepts and stories originated by H.G. Wells!
The "Martian Invasion" has begun again and now mankind must fight, not only for their homes, but for their very humanity. Aliens were the stuff of legends, fairy tails, to scare children or to entertain those wanting to escape the mundane existence of their lives. Few took aliens seriously, let alone saw them as a threat. Yet as mankind busied itself about their petty affairs, they were being scrutinized and studied, perhaps as narrowly as a scientist might watch under the microscope of the microbes that swarm and multiply in a drop of water. It happened slowly at first but by the third year, it seemed that the war was almost over...the war was almost lost. And humanity was not going to be the winner this time.
THIS ISSUE: A trap set for the Martians fails miserably and even though Julie manages to escape, she and the others find out that the Hellweed plant unleashed by the Martians is much more of a destructive force than they could have ever imagined. The Martians attack on Kansas City reaches a devastating climax as the invaders ravage what is left of the city and its human population.
"Randy Zimmerman has a fine grasp of drama, and spins the various strands of the story into a coherent whole...imaginative and very gritty." - war-of-the-worlds.co.uk
