The editor of a sci-fi pulp magazine is accidentally transported to a parallel universe where space travel is common, Earth is at war with creepy aliens, New York City isn't safe after dark, and his girlfriend is with someone else.
What Mad Universe satirizes many of the conventions of American "pulp" magazine science-fiction of the 1940s, while incorporating such stereotyped elements into a coherent alternate universe, valid on its own terms.
