Aliens are coming for you! For the first time ever, read how aliens have invaded pop culture in all its

guises and forms in this definitive history spanning over 100 years. See how depictions of aliens have

evolved over the years in popular and pulp magazines, comics, on TV, and in movies!Readers will meet

aliens with eyes on stalks, robot aliens (as in H.G. Wells' The War of the Worlds), barrel chested aliens

(as per Frank R. Paul's Martian of the 1930s), blob-like B-movie aliens of the 1950s,

&quotreaistic&quotaliens as featured in the 1977 movie Close Encounters of the Third Kind (supposedly

wings (as created by Wayne Barlow for his book Expedition, in 1990)--and many more.Whether friendly

visitor or fearsome invader, we learn that both the motive for, and method of, invasion has often been

influenced by the social mood and politics of the era in which the magazine, comic, or movie was

published or released. As for aliens' chosen method of invasion... not all aliens use ray guns to invade.

Instead they employ &quotseepods,&quotmind control, and body transference--just a few of the

alternative methods used by aliens to invade the minds and bodies of humans, thus bending them to

their submission.Visualized through the prism of pop culture in this thoroughly engaging 176-page book,
