Dark Horse Comics will release Resident Alien Omnibus Vol. 1 on August 18, timed to take advantage of the launch of the Resident Alien TV series in Summer 2020. The graphic novel series, by Peter Hogan and Steve Parkhouse, is up to five volumes; Omnibus Vol. 1 collects the first three, Welcome to Earth!, The Suicide Blonde, and The Sam Hain Mystery, in 288 pages at a value-priced $24.99.
The TV series, starring Alan Tudyk, is currently shooting in Vancouver, B.C., Dark Horse CEO Mike Richardson told ICv2 earlier this month (see "ICv2 Interview: Dark Horse CEO Mike Richardson, Part 1"). Syfy ordered the first season last March, after ordering a pilot in June 2018 (see "’Resident Alien’ Picked Up").
In Resident Alien, extraterrestrial Harry finds himself in a small Colorado town, where he assumes the identity of the town doctor and passes the time solving murders.
