UFO (Comic Book Series)

UFO is a action-horror comic book/graphic novel series concept by Red-Verse-Writer, based upon the trilogy of games of the same name by the now-defunct Czech game studio ALTAR Interactive. Set in a alternate history in which a alien spaceship went into orbit around Earth's atmosphere on May 24th 2004 and released a cloud of mysterious spores onto the planet that killed the majority of the macro-scale life on Earth, the series revolves around the few remaining humans, mainly a group set in the North American continent, as they effort to survive, regroup with their fellow humans and take revenge upon the aliens who destroyed their planet.

Publication Info
"On May 24th, 2004, an alien spacecraft roughly the same size as the country of Australia began to orbit around the Earth. Ignoring all human attempts to communicate with it and immune to nuclear missiles fired at it, it soon began to release massive clouds of spores into the upper layers of the atmosphere, where they rapidly multiplied and almost completely blocked out the sun. After seven days of this "Twilight", as the humans called it, the spore cloud reached critical mass and the spore began to rain down on the planet, clogging the streets and seas, burying animals in the wild and smothering humans in their homes. In less than a day the majority of the macro-scale life on Earth was wiped out. However, some humans managed to survive this "Nightfall" by taking shelter underground with supplies of food and water, seeds, animals and resources. Hiding in bunkers, or taking shelter in sealed bases, or just by sheer luck, these people managed to survive for a whole year until the spore dissipated, decomposing and fading away. Life could emerge once again. Now humanity has risen back up, with intents of surviving, regrouping, reclaiming territory, finding out what happened, and, if possible, taking vengeance..."
