The Black-Man Cometh: Part 1
By Richard T Cole
Prior to the winter of 2012, my awareness of
‘Men In Black’ was marginal. I’d seen the
movie and was familiar with the archetypal
story in which sinister figures claiming to be
agents of a ‘top secret’ government depart-
ment visit individuals who reported a UFO
encounter. The message delivered is usually
quite emphatic: “Keep your mouth shut, or
else!” Aside from this I’d never given the
subject much thought. Indeed, it seemed to
me that such covert operations were a
waste of resources and time. I’d never
heard of anyone mysteriously vanishing
after ignoring a warning from MIB. If any-
thing, visitations tend to serve only as an
enigmatic garnish to ‘the forthcoming book.’
However, on Sunday 21st October, my incre-
dulity underwent a complete overhaul when
a man in black called at my home!

By Sean Casteel
His is an old-fashioned UFO story in the same
vein as George Adamski and Daniel Fry.
He was not abducted by grey aliens, but
communicated face-to-face with blonde-
haired, blue-eyed Nordic types. It’s a pretty
much “nuts-and-bolts” encounter with a
couple of junkets to other planets and
another dimension or two.
