War of the Worlds #1496 A"meteor" is seen landing on Horsell Common, near London. The narrator discovers that the object is a space-going artificial cylinder launched from Mars. The cylinder opens, disgorging the Martians: bulky, tentacled creatures that begin setting up strange machinery in the cylinder's impact crater. A human moves towards the crater, waving a white flag of truce and is incinerated by a laser-like Heat-Ray. Several cylinders land issuing more attacks in various areas of England. The narrator witnesses the Martians use humans as a food supply through the direct transfusion of their blood. The Martians are finally defeated by a bacteria their bodies are unable to fight.Related product
