!!Oi, this 'ere comic is providin' examples of:
* TenMinuteRetirement: Poor Clive was hoping to have a quiet retirement when he settled into Lower Crowchurch. Before he finishes painting his new place he winds up leading the town's survivors.
* AlienInvasion: In the style of classics like ''WarOfTheWorlds'' and ''TheDayTheEarthStoodStill.''
* BizarreAlienBiology: The aliens in the series are either robotic, lamp-looking beings or wispy energy beings. We have yet to find out one way or the other.
* CatsAreSnarkers: Susan can sling a mean snark.
* DeathRay: The aliens main weapon. Clive is quick to note that normal fire ''"doesn't burn like that."''
* FunetikAksent: Many characters talk with a strong cockney accent.

* MostWritersAreWriters: In the first series we have Susan who is a reclusive writer and Peter, a reporter. Then in ''Enemy Within'' we meet eminent sci-fi authors Runciman and Cornfelt. It is a series that appreciates writing almost as much as it does the sci-fi genre.
* NotQuiteDead: The first alien which Susan blasted with her shotgun.
* RagtagBunchOfMisfits: The crew are a former Navy-man, a writer, a callous trapper, a reporter, and a hapless kid.
