Arnold Marmor

“ People come from all over the world just to see me. And Marsten has been to see me every day. He chews on his big cigar and there's a smile on his face a yard wide.
I've tried to talk to my keepers but all I can manage is some crazy kind of gibberish. I also see Klar and Grat. But they're only there when Marsten is around. They're keeping very close to him. My being transformed into a Martian was just part of it. Klar and Grat were going to carry out the rest of it.
On one dark night, and very soon, Klar, Grat, and Marsten were going to disappear.
Maybe I was the greatest attraction on earth. ”

“ A huge metal tube hurtling through the longest and blackest of nights.
Joe Roane was a good-looking chap. Good-looking, young, and excited. He was the first to pilot a ship to Mars. He was looking ahead to the glory that awaited him. ”

“ And sexy."
"A Martian." He was very adamant. "I'll have the greatest attraction in the world. Nick, I'm the kind who gets what he wants. I've spent over three million dollars on this project and I'm ready to spend another three million. Just get me my Martian and you'll be a rich man. You'll be rich enough to quit working for me and to tell me to go to hell. ”
