The middle section makes me wonder if it was the first SF post-apocalypse story?

The end section really influences Krypton in Superman, because 'Crystal Spires and Togas' are everywhere. Apparently, Wells thought cloaks were the most dramatic clothing possible, and heroes need something to swish dramatically.
