[[File:Martian tripod (Miss Adventure).png|thumb|left|The Tripods at work as depicted in [[War of the Worlds|one movie]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Miss Adventure (comic story)|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#In the 97th Cosmos|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 Ray]]s making them into formidable war machines. 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.

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 (short story)|The Wellsians]]'') | |||
