For Halloween day, Slim selected something to remember the 1938 Orson Welles broadcast of H. G. Wells’s War of the Worlds. Since the Orson Welles broadcast didn’t have any images to accompany it, Slim had to pick something from a newer source. Therefore, Slim picked the 1955 Classics Illustrated comic book’s depiction of the Martian Tripod.

That’s a great drawing, Howard! And the background’s really effective. I’m going to listen to that radio show tonight.

Thanks Binky! The background approximates what appeared in the original Classics Illustrated comic book.
I listened to the 1938 radio broadcast of the War of the Worlds, too!
