Monday Madness WILD "Menace from Mars"

We wind up October's Monday Madness with another Martian invasion...
...in this never-reprinted tale from Atlas' MAD! comic clone, WILD! #2 (1954)!
Though the talented and versatile Howie Post illustrated the story, nobody knows who wrote it!
But it "feels" a lot like Stan Lee...

Friday Fun REX DEXTER "SpaceShip of the Living Dead"

Our final Rex Dexter adventure truly goes where no space hero has gone before...
...battling interplanetary zombies!
This terrifying tale is from Fox's Mystery Men Comics #21 (1941), several issues before Rex's final tale in #24, which we presented HERE!
We're running it out-of-sequence because we thought it would make an appropriate story just before Halloween!
At any rate, this concludes Rex's saga on this blog, so be here next Friday, when we begin re-presenting another timelost series with a unique twist!

Reading Room WAR OF THE WORLDS "Part II: the Conquest of Earth"

Yeah, we could've called this chapter...
...but then HG Wells' ghost would've b1tch-slapped us!
(and rightly so!)
...projectiles from Mars have landed on Earth in 1898, unleashing aliens with heat-rays destroying everything in range.
Unfortunately, the aliens are now mobile...
To Be Continued...
TUESDAY!
Adapted by Chris Claremont, penciled by Yong Montano, and inked by Dino Castrillo, it's a pretty straighforward visualization of the original novel, without updating to the present, as most adaptations of the tome have done.
