honestly, not bad. just not worth buying the second volume (yet). also, why not just call them obama & bush? if you're gonna critique them, at least be blatantly obvious about it. *sigh*

Letter 44 begins as newly inaugurated President Blades (assumed to be the 44th…) receives a letter from the previous president alerting him to a secret extraterrestrial discovery in the asteroid belt. A group of eight scientists and military leaders has spent the past 7 years traveling to this discovery and are just arriving as Blades steps into office.
This volume was filled with political corruption, space drama, plot twists and alien worlds. I really enjoyed the characters and the way the narrative was split between the political mess on Earth and the astronaut crew in space. I can’t wait to get my hands on the other two volumes to see how this ends!
Issues #1-6

This one was....definitely something. I know that's weak but that's about all I've got. Speculative fiction and sci fi have a tendency to jump the shark pretty easily, and this one did it fairly early on. Dunno if I'll read the other two.

This was a very creative story that went quickly and was very intriguing. Although, I read this for free on Prime Reading I am actually going to buy the second book.

Part political drama, part Alien invasion, what's not to like here? When the newly elected President takes office, he's given a secret letter from the previous President stating there's a secret asteroid containing alien life that the rest of the world doesn't know about and that it should be kept secret for the betterment of society.
While this volume only scratched the surface of the story being told here, there was definitely a lot to like and some great teases for what more is to come. I will definitely be checking out the rest of this series as it is released. My only real negative(and even then i can look past it) is the artwork in places, especially characters faces can get very muddy and jumbled and make them look deformed. Otherwise, very good series so far.
Full Disclosure: I received a free digital copy of Letter 44, Volume 1 through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This comic has been on my tbr for a while so when Netgalley had it available as part of a re-release I grabbed the chance to read it.
The plot revolves around the inauguration and new term of Pres. Blake (44th US pres.) and a group of astronauts who’ve been sent to see what they can find about an alien structure. It pulls heavily from 2008 US politics but puts a spin on it. I really enjoyed this one and am excited to see where it leads.
