Space Adventures #6

"Invasion from Venus" depicts a 26th-century New York where a museum piece reminds citizens of Earth's 1950s past, just as an invasion from Venus begins. Astronauts Ken and Rex discover the Venusian planet has an atmosphere and terrain similar to Earth's, but when their ship's braking rockets fail, they crash-land. After communicating with Earth's Global Control Board about the Venusians' threat of a black-ray bombardment, the astronauts propose a desperate plan: they will offer to help the Venusians confer with Earth's leaders, buying time to prevent the destruction of their world.
