About the series
Paul Cornell’s Saucer Country (2012–2013) is a taut, politically charged DC series that blends conspiracy thriller with alien-abduction horror. Over 14 issues, it follows New Mexico governor Arcadia Alvarado as she mounts a presidential campaign while secretly grappling with a traumatic UFO encounter, forcing a stark choice between public ambition and private survival. Anchored by the moody, grounded art of Ryan Kelly, Andrea Mutti, and David Lapham, the series matters for treating its sci-fi premise with the gritty seriousness of a political drama.
