"The Overlord assimilates the children & the earth
becomes the 3rd rock from the sun.

Major bummer."

The Overlords don't assimilate mankind. The Overmind does. Whether it's gloomy or not depends on how you look at it. It's the next step in human (?) evolution.

The tragedy for the Overlords is they are incapable of making that step. They are simply workmen for the Overmind.
