The Earth is invaded by fearsome, little green men who are able to teletransport themselves-and unable to lie. No human institution is able to resist them ... J.T. Macintosh's 1954 novel "One in Three Hundred" is apocalyptic. The Sun's fire is about to annihilate the Earth. To survive, mankind must flee ... so everyone prepares to move to Mars. Unfortunately, there are not enough rockets and some people must be left behind. French novelist R.M. de Nizerolles (the pen-name of Marcel Priollet) describes a robot civilization on Mars in his "The Men of the Year 2000." He calls these robots "Slovaks." "They are not men! They are automatons taken to the ultimate limit of perfection and who obey us ... one might say blindly ... because they have no eyes." On the lighter side, there are the famous and unforgettable comic-strip adventures of Flash Gordon. Created by Alex Raymond in 1933, the hero's stories were soon adapted for television, notably "Flash Gordon on the Planet Mars," directed by Frederick Stephani in 1936. MARS BETAT
