Day After Disclosure: first contact, painted in the dark
Some first-contact stories are about the ships. Day After Disclosure is about the morning after they are finally admitted to be real — a planet blinking awake into a reality it spent a century refusing to believe.
It is a fully painted science-fiction comic series — three issues, in print now through Solar Storm Press — that trades chrome and spectacle for noir shadow and human faces caught in the turning tide. Less about what is in the sky than the people standing under it.
The whole series is now collected on a single long-form feature page: the painted art, the story behind it, and every issue in one place.
