Blue Book

    (Dark Horse, 2023)

(from publisher)

An ambitious, non-fiction comic book experience depicting true stories of UFO abductions with an eye to capturing the strange essence of those encounters. In Blue Book, teaming with artist Michael Avon Oeming and letterer Aditya Bidikar, Tynion presents what he calls his "True Weird" stories. Tales of ordinary people encountering the strange and the impossible. Volume 1 retells the infamous case of the abduction of Betty and Barney Hill of New Hampshire in 1961 - the very first widely-publicized UFO abduction that went on to shape and influence all future encounter stories. Collects the Dark Horse Comics series Blue Book #1-5, originally published on Substack.
