I love the first of those images Amasov- the martian against the blue sky. Reminds me of Moebius' work- any idea who they're by?

The green eyes on Michael Trim's fighting machine has certainly made an impression, hasn't it?

In one of the reviews I wrote for Pendragon's "film", I said that with a decent piece of animation software and a bog box of Lego, I could make a better film. I found a link to a Lego war machine over at Eve of the War. Hmmmmm.  |

Its quite an interesting comic yeah, but I don't think I like the look of the martians. Also the cylinder seems to be much, much bigger than Wells described. Will definately keep an eye on it though.

It's on the General thread.
As for size, I'd say it's closer than anyone else has depicted. After all Wells described it as flat-ended ('table-like') and 30 yards, or 90 feet, in diameter. Most pictures show it about 30 feet or so, far too small.

does that book follow the same story as the war of the worlds? "Classic science fiction author H G Wells's most memorable and compelling novel was arguably The War of the Worlds, made even more famous by the notorious Mercury Theater production starring Orson Wells that resulted in the "Night That Panicked America." But what if the Martian invasion was not entirely the product of H. G. Wells's vivid imagination? What if Wells witnessed something that spurred him to write The War of the Worlds not as a form of entertainment -- but as a warning to the complacent people of Earth? International bestselling author Kevin J Anderson, writing here as Gabriel Mesta, explores that tantalizing theory in this unique, thrilling novel that expertly evokes the Victorian era. The Martian War takes the reader on an exhilarating journey with Wells and his companions, from drafty London flats to the steamy Sahara, to the surface of the moon, and beyond. Discover the truth about Martian invasion not only from Wells himself, but also from the enigmatic Dr. Moreau, who documents the very first alien autopsy! Written by one of our most popular science fiction authors, and filled with both historical detail and marvelous flights of fancy, The Martian War is pure delight from start to finish." |

I like the sound of that. Similar theme to the infinite worlds of H G Wells, when they did the martian episode, the idea that TWOTW was a warning.
