Newly-elected president Stephen Blades hoped to tackle the most critical issues facing the nation war, the economy, and health care. But in a letter penned by the outgoing president, Blades learns the truth that redefines "critical" seven years ago, NASA discovered alien presence in the asteroid belt, and kept it a secret from the world. A stealth mission crewed by nine astronauts was sent to make contact, and they’re getting close—assuming they survive the long journey to reach their destination.
This deluxe edition collects the first 2 arcs of the critically-acclaimed and award-winning series in a new oversized format. Packed with extras, behind the scenes bonus material, sketches, concept art and more, this is one collection not to be missed.

"There is a real tradition of former presidents leaving a personal note for the new president. In Letter 44, the note says aliens are building a mysterious object in our solar system. No one except for a few top defense staff have been told to avoid mass panic. The note continues that the seemingly senseless middle east wars were started just to keep our soldiers in tip-top condition and to inflate the defense budget. Because of a mysterious transmission obstruction, our cameras and telescopes can’t see what is being built. A ship is hastily constructed in secret and sent with 9 military/scientists to investigate. The ship is scheduled to arrive in a few days after more than 3 years in flight.
Will the new President reveal the secret to the American people? To the other national leaders? What will the ship’s crew discover when they reach the alien object? What is its purpose?
The premise and art are great. The plot has several twists and turns. It’s hard to judge who is good and who is evil. If you like your science fiction to be thought-provoking, you can’t go wrong with Letter 44 Vol 1. Plus it’s available on Comixology Unlimited and Prime Reading at the time of this review. 5 stars!
Thanks to the publisher, Oni Press, and NetGalley for an advanced copy."

- There is a real tradition of former presidents leaving a personal note for the new president. In Letter 44, the note says aliens are building a mysterious object in our solar system.

Thanks to the publisher, Oni Press, and NetGalley for an advanced copy. - Letter 44 Vol. 1 starts off with a new president being sworn into office, only to discover in a letter left by the outgoing president that his predecessor had spent most of his two terms in office making TOP SECRET preparations to face off against aliens who were discovered to be doing *something* (nobody really knows what, but This Is America! so the first instinct is, of course, to bet on weapons!) in the asteroid belt.
A small crew (7 men, 2 women) of scientists and military personnel was sent into space a couple of years ago to see what's what and maybe, you know, have some first contact with the aliens (and, as is to be expected, lots of sex with each other on the way -- strange groovy sex that is nothing like the sexy times I've ever seen).
Somehow, these brilliant people who figured out how to catapult humans into space did not stop to think about human nature and the potential effectiveness of Nexplanon, so when we join the party, we can see that one of the female astronauts is already knocked up.
The plot alternates between espionage and political shenanigans on Earth and hijinks in space of the sort you hope will happen in a story about humans traipsing off to meet aliens. I wasn't sure if this was going to be a great genre for me, but I found it compelling to read and I'm looking forward to checking out the next volume.
Badass Female Character score Meh, somewhere around 3.5. There are women in space! The First Lady is badass! But my main takeaway from the female characters is that I should apparently head to space if I really want some killer boobs.
Thank you to NetGalley and Oni Press for providing me with a free electronic ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review. - 3.5 Stars
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.
