Notes
- Old science fiction stories assumed that several planets and even moons in our solar system were inhabited. This article covers all one-shot stories where Martians are featured, specially those in Mystery in Space (Volume 1) and Strange Adventures (Volume 1), old cartoons, etcetera, but no specific official race is defined and their appearance varies considerably from issue to issue. See Martians in order to know all the official Martian races.
