An alien encroachment , though terrifying , is the variety of event that people can wrap up their minds around easily enough . Ships show up , they might be hostile , you take to the skies to try and shoot them down . Simple . An entire planet purposefully shoot through blank in ordination to make contact , though , is a aspect that no one could have maybe anticipated or prepared for . And so , the few citizenry made cognisant of the situation do what they can , and mastermind to take the best course of action they can come up with on such short notice .

Even though there is n’t any activity to talk of in The Warning ’s first issue , it ’s in the stillness and overwhelming normality of everyone ’s lives that really makes the hover peril so unmistakable . Panic is shot through everyone ’s emotions — but reckon the sheer order of magnitude of what they ’re dealing with , all they can really do is just keep go fore and pray for the best , because there ’s no metre to stop and be horrified .
