Line 41:
* John Stith's novel ''[[Manhattan Transfer]]'' begins with aliens tossing a dome over and ripping out [[New York City|Manhattan Island]] without any obvious explanation, then stowing it inside their massive spacecraft... to save a sample of humanity from a soon-to-arrive Planet Killer.
* ''[[Lensman|Second Stage Lensmen]]'', as part of the prototypical [[Lensman Arms Race]], has the "nutcracker": two planets that are remotely piloted so that they both hit a third planet at the same time. This crushes the third planet between them.
* Mickey Finn from the ''[[Callahan's Crosstime Saloon]]'' series is a walking, man-sized planet killer cyborg. Fortunately, in the very first ''Callahan's'' story, he figures out how to thwart his programming, and finds the perfect place to do it.
