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!
