Explanation

It may be assumed that an extraterrestrial species invading the Earth would have developed advanced and highly destructive weapons, but the alien soldiers evidently are using swords, and bronze swords at that. What is more unbelievable is that humans defending their planet also use swords, even though the human soldier depicted has modern camouflage and thus most likely has access to modern weapons, such as firearms and artillery.

This is the first depiction of the Zorblaxians. Unlike the current depiction as smooth-headed creatures slightly shorter than the average adult human, the one in this comic is quite tall and has bulging head veins. However, he is depicted in the normal way in the retroactively added votey.

Zorblaxian: "Blast! Their iron is much stronger than our bronze!"

Caption: "The alien invaders were easily dispatched."

Votey Transcript
