Line 131:
* ''[[Invader Zim]]'': the show is about an alien using the infiltration method. [[Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain|He's really bad at it]]. However the Irkens are really good at what they're doing, no matter how bad Zim is. We've seen them successfully take over several planets and they seem to run a galactic monopoly that can't be challenged by any other being in the Universe (to our knowledge).
* ''[[Jimmy Neutron]]'': Three separate times. The first time the Yokians arrived to Earth they stole every adult in Retroville (except Miss Fowl) only to take them to their planet. The second time they arrived on Earth they successfully earned everyone's trust and tried to kill off all the adults once more. Then there is Grandma Tater's, who's apparently one of many similar aliens that take over planets using hypnosis.
* [[DC Animated Universe]]:
** Darkseid invades the Earth in the [[Superman: The Animated Series]] "Apokolips... Now!" The good Alien role is filled by his heroic son Orion, who threatens a counter-invasion from New Genesis, forcing Darkseid to retreat.
** The very first story arc, "Secret Origins", sees the Justice League come together for the first time to combat shapeshifting aliens. Initially, the aliens infiltrate society to undermine Earth's defense systems, then they begin their All-Out Attack. The Good Alien role is filled by [[Martian Manhunter|J'onn J'onnz]], the [[Last of His Kind|sole survivor]] of a Martian civilization that these invaders had destroyed centuries ago.▼
** He does so again in "Legacy", using a brainwashed Superman as a weapon.
▲** ''[[Justice League]]'': The very first story arc, "Secret Origins", sees the Justice League come together for the first time to combat the White Martians, shapeshifting aliens. Initially, the aliens infiltrate society to undermine Earth's defense systems, then they begin their All-Out Attack. The Good Alien role is filled by [[Martian Manhunter|J'onn J'onnz]], the [[Last of His Kind|sole survivor]] of a Martian civilization that these invaders had destroyed centuries ago.
** The Season Two [[Grand Finale]] "Starcrossed" sees the League nearly destroyed by another invasion. The {{spoiler|Thanagarian}} infiltration was far more effective, because they had a [[The Mole|Mole]] in the Justice League itself, providing them with the information to neutralize its members. These invaders initially present themselves as the Good Aliens, claiming that they're fortifying Earth to defend it from their enemies; the ''real'' Good Alien turns out to be their Mole, {{spoiler|Hawkgirl,}} who learns of their true intentions for Earth and is [[Becoming the Mask|unable to go through with it]].
** The ''
** The ''JLU'' [[Grand Finale]] "Destroyer" has Darkseid leading the forces of Apokolips on an All-Out Attack on Earth. The League is forced to [[Strange Bedfellows|temporarily team up]] with the remaining members of the Legion of Doom in order to fight them off. Utimately, [[Lex Luthor]] saves the day, offering Darseid the Anti-Life equation - something he had been searching for his entire career; when Darkseid touches it, both villains are apparently vaporized.<ref>According to [[Word of God]], both did survive, but are now prisoners in the Source Wall - they won't be escaping ''that''.</ref>
* ''[[Kim Possible]]'': The [[Grand Finale]] had the previously once introduced [[Scary Dogmatic Aliens]] invade Earth for rather no real reason at all. All they did was send in [[Humongous Mecha]]s while the two aliens just sat and relaxed. Rather than an "official" government-backed invasion, it appears that the whole attack was simply a private vendetta against Drakken/Earth on the part of Warmonga.
* ''[[Little Audrey]]'' cartoon "Dizzy Dishes": In Audrey's dream there are alien invaders attacking with a disintegrator.
