In 1897, H. G. Wells serialized a new science-fiction story in which extraterrestrials from Mars arrive near London, and immediately begin an invasion which catches the local populace unaware. In the 100+ years since its original publication, The War of the Worlds has been the subject of countless printings, a television series, at least two feature films and even a broadway musical. I’ll be paying homage to this timeless sci-fi classic by presenting my own interpretation of the work through a series of illustrations for each chapter. Prints of the illustrations will be available in a series of folios, but the images will all be presented here first:
