Huge Tripods equipped with devastating heat-rays were used as war machines by the Martians documented in War of the Worlds. (COMIC: Miss Adventure)

The Tripods at work as depicted in one movie. (COMIC: Miss Adventure)

In the version of these events which occurred in the 97th Cosmos, the “huge Tripod Walking Machines” were built at the last minute by the Wellsian Martians after their arrival on Earth, when they realised that Earth's gravity prevented the Wellsians from moving under their own power. As such, many of the Tripods looked different from each other. However, all had built-in Heat Rays making them into formidable war machines. (PROSE: The Resurrection of the Wellsians) Most Tripods were operated by a single Wellsian, (VIDEO: The Wellsians) but Shogorf and Rusk drove one together. As they rampaged through Paris, Rusk grew anxious about the prospect of the humans making their own Tripod-style war machines. Shogorf initially laughed off the possibility, but, like Rusk, was still momentarily terrified when they turned a corner and found themselves faced with the Eiffel Tower, turning the Tripod around and fleeing at speed. (COMIC: Towering Success)

Most of the Tripods were destroyed when the Wellsian pilots went haywire in their death throes from the common cold. However, taking refuge into one, surviving Wellsians built a jet engine into its base, flying it like a space rocket to Venus, where it finally crashed. (VIDEO: The Wellsians) It was unearthed over a century later by Mandragora-257 and Digger-291, leading to Mandragora's Great Experiment. (PROSE: The Resurrection of the Wellsians)

The Wellsians were described as “blood-sucking tentacular aliens in impenetrable three-legged war machines” in an internal memo circulated within the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids after the Wellsians resurfaced on Venus. (PROSE: The Wellsians)
