War Of The Worlds Explained: Vegetable Martians & Tripods

  • "Vegetable" is how H. G. Wells described the Martian creatures illustrated by Dutch Artist Johan Briedé featured in a compacted The War Of The Worlds adaptation for The Strand Magazine in 1920. Along with this, he produced a rather fascinating take on the Fighting Machines that's notable by the surprisingly modern depiction Briede created of the Tripods all the way back during World War 1.

      You're welcome! :) It's probably the most obscure design I've covered so far so it's quite nice to bring some light to these images from over a century ago.

    Have you ever seen the Speenhoff Tripod design? It comes from the Dutch release of the book with the illistrations done by 'Jacobus Hendrik Speenhoff'. They're very humanoid in shape, looking like a stacks of pots and pans with insect-like arms pertuding from them. Very interesting design.

    Considering that the martians are described in the novel as highly sluggish and almost non-moving, I believe Wells meant that Johan’s martian design looked like that they were in a constant vegetative state.

    I also recommend making an analysis of “The War Of The Worlds Battleground Australia” book tripod and Martian. I’m Australian and this’ll make very happy as it’s a view of the war of the worlds in one of the many countries that got invaded. And an analysis of “The Massacre Of Man-King” tripod, as its set in an alternate universe and more of a “What If?” Type of book.

  • @zcgamerandreacts2762

    I imagine there's a smaller group of martians who didn't develop qeapons but more the health and medical focus of their species. Making shorter and thicker tripods with no proper combative capabilities so they created two types of vehicles
    Researcher mechs and workers.
    Researchers mainly used to document hazards and harmful bacteria while workers focus on heavy labor alongside transporting resources and more.

    • @pupbenny
      @pupbenny  5 місяців тому +2

      Ah yes, I think I've seen them! from the globe book company version. I like how basic those ones are, they actually look like they're made of pieces of metal. Will probably do a video on them eventually. Very good knowledge, they certainly are obscure, not many people know about them. I find it fascinating trying to find extremely obscure versions, I even recently considered buying a VERY old magazine from Argentina that included a TWATW adaptation that has hardly any pictures online. I didn't though because I kind of figured it'd be an inconvenience to buy an old Argentinian magazine just for the sake of a couple of images lol.
