A variety of Aliens[1]

The word Alien was usually used to describe extraterrestrial lifeforms. In other words, species that were not from Earth. Most aliens were from other planets, but some aliens lived in other dimensions, on moons, and at least one alien race lived on the sun.
Their were millions of alien races throughout the universe, and the greater multiverse. Technically, a human from a parallel universe could be considered an alien, but as earlier stated, the term usually applied to extraterrestrials. An extraterrestrial was NOT from Earth. A human from another universe wouldn't be from the same earth, but still earth. So technically they were not aliens.
Sometimes the word Martian was used to refer to aliens, as it had long been believed that the planet Mars was inhabited. This in fact was true, as the world was once populated by humanoid shapeshifters such as the Green and White Martians.
As a side note, an extraterrestrial lifeform wasn't technically an alien until it visited someplace where it wasn't from, such as when Kal-El was sent to Earth as a baby. Technically a Human being would be considered an alien if he or she were to visit a world other than Earth.

Members of this alien race was in a spaceship in orbit of Earth to observe Superman's funeral.
They wore white robes and had blue skin. Apparently in their religion, they believed that when a person died, they passed on into the "next dimension."
Gray-Skinned Aliens with Six Arms[]
These aliens were present at a Metropolis Café arm wrestling at a table in there on May 9, 3977. They wore green helmets and armor.
Long-Armed Aliens[]
These long-armed aliens were present at a spaceport and inside a cafe on the fifth of May in the year 3977.
Unlike Humanoid species, their arms were more than twice the length of their legs. They had gray fur, pointed noses and dog-like ears. They also had sharp tusks in their mouths. They used their arms to walk rather than their legs.[3]
Pink Aliens With Pointy Ears and Long Nose[]
Purple Humanoid Bird[]
This Purple Humanoid Bird was seen at a 40th century spaceport in the city of Metropolis on May 9, 3977.[5]
Furry and Tusked Aliens[]
This species could be seen in Metropolis when Superman, Hawkman and Hawkgirl visited the 40th century.
They were ape-like in appearance, and they had tall and slender bodies. They also had blue or brown fur and tusks.
Magna's Dolls[]
Most of these aliens were not identified by name. The Lizard Men were, but that's it. The rest were unknown. They were used as "dolls" by Magna, who used her father's teleportation device to teleport them to her dimension and homeworld.
Obviously this photo only shows the backs of the aliens, but the one in the red, yellow and blue costume seems to be a dead ringer for the New God Virman Vundabar. It might even actually be him. It's tough to say for sure. One thing is for certain, the one standing to the right of the blue alien in a globe-shaped helmet is clearly the Pink Panther.
