Notes:
"The Raiders From Saturn" would be an unofficial title, in that it does not appear as part of the story itself, but was derived from the cover caption of the story's original printing in Paul Terry's Mighty Mouse Comics (St. John, 1951 Series) #35 (November 1952). The story is actually untitled.
The title does not appear in the original printing as well, but only on the cover. When the story was later reprinted in a Gold Key Comic - Mighty Mouse (Western, 1964 Series) #161 (October 1964) - it was given the title "The Invasion of the Bat Cats", making it the only version of the story with an "official title".
