Dark Horse Comics and Tiny Onion present Blue Book Library Edition Volume 1, a new hardcover compiling Blue Book: 1961, Blue Book: 1947, all of the series’ cover art, and behind-the-scenes sketches by Michael Avon Oeming. Written by James Tynion IV (The Nice House by the Sea, Something is Killing the Children), illustrated by Oeming (Powers, William of Newbury), and lettered by Aditya Bidikar (Dawnrunner, The Oddly Pedestrian Life of Christopher Chaos), these “True Weird” stories—tales of ordinary people encountering the strange and impossible—will be collected in a hardcover oversized edition for the first time July 2025. It will also include a cover gallery and sketchbook section.

About Blue Book: In Blue Book: 1961, Tynion and Oeming retell the story of the Betty and Barney Hill abduction—the widely publicized and very first abduction that went on to shape and influence all future encounter stories.

In Blue Book: 1947, we follow pilot Kenneth Arnold, who flew his Call-Air A-2 over the skies of the Pacific Northwest and encountered otherworldly blinding flashes of silver light that would change the course of his life forever.

Blue Book Library Edition Volume 1 crash lands in bookstores on July 8, 2025 and in comic shops on July 9, 2025. It is now available to preorder at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, TFAW, and your local comic shop and bookstore for $49.99.
