Quick Review - Blue Book: 1961 (and 1947)

Comments

It was good for its time.

Allan Hatt

But wait. How do you feel about The X-Files?

Zackery Parkerson

For sure. There's no need to be nasty. Also, these people experienced something and it's a bit psychopathic to mock that outright, especially since it was (for the most part) traumatic.

Allan Hatt

I would say you should. It doesn't read like typical Tynion.

Allan Hatt

I’m not much of a Tynion fan, but I’ve heard good things about this series and really dig Oeming’s art. Perhaps this is one I’ll check out from the library when it arrives

Paul Peterson

I think that's why these books ere on the side of sympathy: the point isn't so much reportage on if it happened as the effects it has on them. I do find the omission Alan noted a bit of an "err to being too kind", but I see why the choice was made.

Cherkas's brother taught high school science. He headed the science department at my school. SOMEHOW, Silent Invasion and its cousin, the Suburban Nightmares anthologies, ended up in the school library. Binged them all there.

I haven't thought of that series in years!

Allan Hatt

I'm seriously enjoying this series, and hope it continues to delve into different cases. I find peoples obsessions and the impact these events have on their lives fascinating. He did a similar thing in DoT with the Bigfoot story and how it totally took over witnesses and their families..

Pete Teece

This makes me think of Larry Hancock and Michael Cherkas' Silent Invasion series. I think NBM published them.

Edward Clayton Andrew

This was a a good read. And the art is very simplistic and beautiful. I am a skeptic of their story. Most of their story was told in a hypnotic state and led to "repressed memories", which have been traditionally found to be unreliable.
