Overground Comics has announced that Buffy the Vampire Slayer artist, Cliff Richards, will be joining Christopher Hill and Gene Espy for their new science fiction series, Primordium. The book will ship in August and will split the art chores with Richards telling the main story while Espy will be using his gauche painting style to do the flashback pages.

The story is described as:

Sometime during the week of July 7th, 1947, something crashed deep within the New Mexico desert. The army claimed they had found a flying saucer only to redact that announcement and replace it with a weather balloon. For the next half century, people debated over what really happened between Roswell and Corona, New Mexico. Only a handful of people really know the truth.

Ryan Spencer is the key to unlocking the story of the century, but he only knows that his life is not going how he had planned. The term Primordium indicates a beginning and throughout this series Ryan and an odd collection of individuals, all with their own agendas, begin to unravel the fog of the past to discover not only what happened on that fateful night over the skies of New Mexico, but also to see how that day has shaped every day after.

Michael Bornstein, Overground Comics owner commented, "This book is part of our spotlight series where we highlight unique stories and fantastic talent. We love bringing our fans stories with action and depth then couple that with fantastic visuals. For Primordium, we finally see "if they walk among us."
