'The Silent Invasion: The Great Fear' by Larry Hancock with art by Michael Cherkas is the second volume of a graphic novel reprint about UFOs and paranoia.

Reporter Matt Sinkage knows things, but he's been relegated to writing for tabloids. Even the people in his boarding house treat him like a traitor. When he finds a like between UFOs and a group called The Council. He also runs into a religious cult that worships UFOs. It all culminates with Matt trying to stop a politician from taking office.

There is more conspiracy and paranoia afoot in this volume. It all takes place in the 1950s, and this is the perfect era. It suffers a bit from pacing, probably owing to the era it was written in.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from NBM Publishing and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
