Saucer country ended in 2013. It was a Vertigo series by Paul Cornell (Wolverine, Captain Britain as well as MI:13) as well as Ryan Kelly (Survivors’ Club, Local) that ran 14 issues. It integrated alien invasion conspiracy, political intrigue, as well as points of cultural concern. The lead character was a governor, running for president, who may have been abducted by aliens. At the end of the series, she’d just been elected.
Now comes news that the series will return as Saucer specify from IDW next year. They’ll likewise release an omnibus of the previous issues.
I’m looking ahead to it. I believe comics have a great deal of prospective to comment on social issues, utilizing great aspects in symbolic or satirical or insightful ways. Goodness understands that politics best now is crazy sufficient that it’s difficult to find up with anything as well exaggerated, however that’s where the outside aspect of the prospective alien encounter comes in. This interview with the creators goes into much more detail about the setup.
Every time a creator-owned series returns, I’m reminded of exactly how essential it is to own your work. then you can keep it visible or work out a new deal. (It most likely doesn’t hurt that IDW as well as DC have worked together in the past, including crossover publications.)
Update: The very first problem of what’s now a six-issue miniseries will be offered may 10, 2017, at a cover cost of $3.99. It can be purchased from comic shops with diamond code MAR17 0564.
