Intruder Comics Module

(TSR, 1990)
™ and ©1990 TSR, Inc.

Dr. Eric Corbin suddenly found himself observing a horrific alien battle in the sky, while somewhere in the distance he could hear his wife desperately calling his name.

Corbin’s body, plugged into a system of sensors and electrodes in a laboratory, is flatlining, so the attending doctors override Corbin’s orders and revive him, much to the relief of his wife.

Corbin leads a project intended to study the human imagination. But the pure science aspect is being overshadowed by the government’s insistence that some military application be generated from his research. And after all, they are footing the bill. It is Corbin’s belief that he did not just imagine the battle he saw, but either was actually transported there or incredibly; his imagination was made reality. Hours later, alone with his wife, he thinks back to the world he saw and somehow disappears right out of his clothes to again find himself in an alien landscape.

This title from game publisher TSR is called a “comic module” and is intended as an introduction to a role-playing game based on the story’s concept.
