S01E02: The Resurrection, Part 2

35 years ago, Earth experienced a war of the worlds, humanity's savior being common diseases to which it had long since gained immunity. However, a Pandora's Box is opened when the invaders are accidently revived via radiation exposure, canceling the presence of their microscopic attackers. Their plot to reignite warfare is recognized only by Dr. Harrison Blackwood, who must convince others of the renewed global threat.

Overview

Humanity must resume its war against the Martians when they revive after decades of hibernation following their defeat in the 1950s. The fate of Earth may very well rest in the hands of a small yet courageous band: astrophysicist Harrison Blackwood, paraplegic computer wizard Norton Drake, microbiologist Suzanne McCullough and military man Paul Ironhorse.
