Summary:
Strange invaders: Aliens invade a mid-western town during the 1950s to observe earth. 25 years later they prepare to return home but first must deal with a scientist and newspaper reporter who know their secret. Invaders from Mars: Remake of the 1950s film; a boy battles the hideous Martians who have "taken over" his parents and seek to take over the world. Invisible invaders: Aliens, contacting scientist Adam Penner, inform him that they have been on the moon for twenty thousand years, undetected due to their invisibility, and have now decided to annihilate humanity unless all the nations of earth surrender immediately. Journey to the seventh planet: A U.N. space expedition to the planet Uranus discovers a bizarre world right out of their own heads, featuring places and people the crew members recall from childhood.
