“I Would Conquer Earth, But I Can’t Be Arsed.”
Will Morgan 13-Oct-13
Manoo, the laziest invader ever.
The second issue of Amazing Adventures brought us Manoo, alias the laziest invader ever. “Earthlings!” he says, “I’ve found them at last!”
At last? His spaceship’s like, fifty yards from the school!
How hard could he have been looking?
Doesn’t say much for the observational powers of the students or teachers, either…

Judging by the bodge he appears to have made of landing his ship, they must be deaf as well as blind !
Hey, you don’t know how many landings he’d previously made in cornfields and the like, with no Earthlings to be seen in the vicinity…
That would’ve been an approprite twist-ending for a Lee & Kirby fantasy short, wouldn’t it?
“Tragically, Manoo didn’t realised he had landed at… A School For The Deaf And Blind!”
Sadly, they weren’t that clever, this time…
