UFO encounters behind the Iron Curtain

Red Book Volume 1 gathers four comic-book accounts tied to reported UFO encounters in Russia and China, including the Dyatlov Pass Incident, a sighting near the Russian border, reports from Voronezh, and an airport disruption in China. The collection frames these episodes around questions of government secrecy and the difficulty of explaining extraordinary claims. Presented as “true” tales, the stories draw on accounts associated with the Soviet Union and China, while the volume’s scope is defined by its four collected issues.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • For readers interested in UFO and alien-encounter accounts.
  • For graphic-novel readers drawn to modern history and government secrecy.
  • For readers seeking a comics collection focused on Russia and China.

Book overview

From the New York Times bestseller and multi-Eisner award-winner James Tynion IV (Something is Killing the Children, The Nice House on the Lake, The Department of Truth) and Eisner award-winning Michael Avon Oeming (Powers, B.P.R.D., Judge Dredd) comes this ambitious, non-fiction comic book experience depicting true stories of UFO abductions, but this time in the communist countries of the Soviet Union and China.

Nine students die tragically under mysterious circumstances known as the Dyatlov Pass Incident in Russia. Meng Zhaoguo, a logger with the Red Flag Logging Commune, witnesses a glowing white object crash into the Phoenix Mountain near the Russian border. Four children in the Russian city of Voronezh witness a red egg-shaped UFO descend and a group of seemingly extraterrestrial beings disembark. Flights are immediately diverted into and out of Xiaoshan Airport in China as passengers and crew aboard multiple planes report flashes of otherworldly light from four unidentified objects.

How are all the cover-ups by the Chinese and Russian governments over UFO sightings related? James Tynion IV and Michael Avon Oeming follow up their acclaimed work on Blue Book with an all-new volume of "true" tales capturing the strange world of alien encounters--this time focusing on the uncanny extraterrestrial stories of Russia and China.
