About this ebook
The paranoid cult-classic science fiction mystery series from the early days of indie comics returns! Set against the background of a nightmarish 1950s crawling with communist spies, corrupt FBI agents, McCarthyites, Stalinists, cold warriors, flying saucers, and mysterious government organizations, The Silent Invasion weaves a byzantine tale of mystery and deceit, as a bewildered investigative reporter, Matt Sinkage, pursues the truth behind an apparent alien invasion that points to involvement at the highest levels of American government officials. The series will begin with two books reprinting the original volumes, followed by the newly collected third album and concluding with a brand new fourth book.

Reviews for The Silent Invasion, Red Shadows
5 ratings2 reviews
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The Silent Invasion, Book 1: Red Shadows which comes straight from the 80's B&W comics scene that gave us Cerebus and T.M.N.T. It is a very interesting book because it combines the ambience of Film Noir, Mistery, 50's Sci-Fi with a very good pace and cativating characters. The art is heavily influenced by the Atomic Art of Yves Chaland.2 thumbs up!!!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Once you get used to the 'Dick Tracy' style art of Michael Cherkas - which isn't hard at all - you can enjoy the story about a brave reporter whose had a UFO encounter trying to get the story out and investigate the phenomenon. Unfortunately, the FBI are more concerned with commies than aliens and come after him when they think he's an accomplice of mysterious Mister Kalashnikov in the apartment next door. In mood, complex plot and shadowy art, this is really a Warner Brothers noir thriller with UFO's thrown in. Everyone's a double-crosser, especially the blonde. Well worth a few hours of your time.
