EDITORS COMMENTS
September 1949: A Couple's Encounter with the Unknown in 'Fantastic Adventures' In the pages of the September 1949 issue of 'Fantastic Adventures' magazine, readers were transported to realms of the extraordinary with the captivating cover illustration of Berkeley Livingston's story, 'Invasion of the Planet Men.' The image, now a fascinating relic of science fiction's golden age, depicts an unsuspecting couple in the depths of a forest, their expressions a mix of shock and awe as they come face to face with a group of bizarre, green-skinned men. The cover art, a masterclass in pulp fiction illustration, evokes a sense of the unusual and the strange. The men, with their elongated limbs and otherworldly features, are a stark contrast to the natural beauty of the forest, their presence an intrusion on the mundane world of the couple. The deep, shadowy forest, teeming with life and mystery, adds to the sense of unease and wonder. 'Invasion of the Planet Men' was a product of its time, a reflection of the public's fascination with the unknown and the limitless potential of science and technology. The story, like many others in the pulp science fiction genre, explored themes of alien invasion, otherworldly beings, and the human response to the unfamiliar. Today, this cover serves as a reminder of a time when the boundaries of imagination were pushed, and the unknown was a source of both fear and excitement. The image, with its odd, weird, and bizarre elements, continues to captivate and inspire, a testament to the enduring allure of science fiction and the power of the human imagination.
