RESIDENT ALIEN: THE DOCTOR IS BACK!
HOGAN & PARKHOUSE’S CRITICAL HIT RETURNS WITH A NEW MURDER MYSTERY!

APRIL 30, MILWAUKIE, OR—Peter Hogan and Steve Parkhouse return with their critically acclaimed story of an alien hero named Harry in an epic second series beginning this summer!

Beginning with a #0 issue, this four-issue miniseries takes you deep inside another murder mystery alongside comic’s favorite medical detective.

A straightforward suicide . . . or a murder? At first, undercover alien Dr. Harry Vanderspeigle thinks the local police have this death solved, and then things get personal when one of his only human friends becomes a suspect. Also: The feds figure out that Harry’s hiding in the Pacific Northwest!
