  1. Love this series and this issue sounds awesome!

  2. Cornell’s doing a treat on this. I’m so sure that it’ll get picked up as a TV series as well.

  3. This is the issue I’ve been waiting for! Bringing the pieces together. There wasn’t too much about where it’s going, but enough of what it’s setting out to do. It just got MUCH better. I was starting to lose interest after the last two issues. Cornell just hooked me into the long term with this one.

    • Totally agree, I loved everything about this issue. I was bummed to see Ryan Kelly wasn’t on art, until I opened it up, Jimmy Broxton did a magnificent job! There were so many stylistic changes, but it all served the narrative so well, and really made a difference in the overall reading experience. There was so much interesting information, Cornell hit this one out of the park; it makes me want to start researching some of this stuff myself, simply fascinating.

    • I liked it but I wouldn’t say it came anywhere near “bringing all the pieces together.” We still have no idea what the professo’rs hypothesis is, other than that it’s extremely nuanced.

    • Brought together all the ideas we had pushed at us in the first five issues and placed them into a time line. To me that’s bringing the story together.

  4. DC please print the trade ASAP!

  5. This issue was great! Loved all tour of UFO theories and all. Check out this book if you’re not already.

  6. This was my pick this week. I really like the exploration of myth and truth in the way the history of UFOs is presented. I posted a review on my blog if anyone is interested: http://otakufusion.tumblr.com/post/29618127252/comic-of-the-week-saucer-country

  7. SO GOOD.
