Monday Mars Madness MARS ATTACKS "Attacking an Army Base"

When Last We Left the Martians...

Art by Wally Wood, Bob Powell, and Norm Saunders

...they were en-route to Earth, and had destroyed several satellites (manned and unmanned) in orbit.

Now, we're about experience...well...it's pretty obvious...

John Green takes over as penciler-inker for this chapter.

We're not certain if it's a pseudonym, since the only other credits we can find for "John Green" are for a younger artist who would've been in elementary school at the time of this series!

Space Hero Saturdays SHADOW COMICS "Riddle of the Flying Saucers"

Who Knows What Evil Lurks...on Earth and the Moon?

Yeah, that guy!

As they used to say...
Not a dream!

Not a hoax!

Not an "imaginary story"!

This never-reprinted tale from S&S's Shadow Comics V7N10 (1948) is illustrated by Bob Powell, who may have written it..although it could be The Shadow's primary writer, Walter Gibson, who co-created and scripted the Spurs Jackson and His Space Vigilantes strip in Charlton's Space Cowboy Comics a few years later!
It's definitely not an adaptation of a Shadow radio show episode, which most of the comic stories during this period, in fact, were...as shown HERE and HERE!
BTW, this wasn't the last time He Who Knows What Evil would be involved in a Moon-related story...
