| Description | Five drawings for Amazing Fantasy #15 comic book pages 28 through 30 shows three men gathered on and around an alien spacecraft that has landed on earth. The search party can find no sign of alien beings, and admit as they walk through the woods with dogs and guns, that they don't know what they are looking for. Radio announcers warn nearby inhabitants to stay indoors. The action shifts to a husband and wife, as he prepares to leave their home despite a television announcer's warning to remain indoors. As he waves goodbye he reminds his wife to stay inside. The wife, realizing she is out of coffee, decides to slip out to the store. As she walks along with a scarf over her head and an overcoat over her dress she is accosted by an unseen enemy and is dragged off begging to be released. The husband returns home, and seeing the house empty understands that his wife has gone out. Sobbing and sweating he runs toward the telephone. In a twist, the anxious husband reveals that he and his wife are the Martians. |
