Blue Book: 1947

The wave of ‘UFO hysteria’ in 1947 was strong enough to spur the official Federal investigations of unidentified flying objects and launch Project Blue Book by the U.S. Air Force in 1952. In the final chapter of the Blue Book: 1947 series by James Tynion IV and Michael Avon Oeming, we see the causes of this national fervor and the beginnings of the grip on pop culture that have lasted for almost a century. Also including a True Weird backup story by Josh Trujillo, Jack T. Cole, and Aditya Bidikar!

Cover: Aug 2024

And now, the moment you’ve all been waiting for…please put your hands together for Zatanna Zatara! The greatest entertainer in the crappiest hotel and casino of Las Vegas! Not that the ritzier spots on the Strip haven’t come calling, of course. But since a devastating instance of magic gone wrong that forever changed the course of her childhood, Zatanna would much rather live out her days as a top-hat-and-fishnets-wearing sleight-of-hand stage act than bother with real magic. These days, she doesn’t think much of the past at all. That is, until an interdimensional vortex cracks open during Zatanna’s act, and a terrifying demon crawls out to kill her. If she hopes to survive the horrors that follow it, she’ll need to take herself and her power seriously for the first time in a long time–and fast. Because when it comes to your past, you can run…but you can’t hide forever!
