About the series
Dell Comics’ 1966 one-shot adaptation of the famously low-budget holiday film, Santa Claus Conquers the Martians brings the story of Santa’s interplanetary adventure to the page. Illustrated by Bob Jenney, this single issue captures the film’s quirky premise—Martians kidnapping Kris Kringle to bring joy to their children—in classic Silver Age comic style. A cult oddity bridging Christmas cheer and sci-fi kitsch, it stands as a curious artifact of its era.
