In "The Pigs Part One: Straw Men," alien Harry—posing as a small-town doctor—struggles to maintain his human disguise after being shot by his assistant, Asta, who may be one of the few people immune to his mental illusions. As government agents investigate strange footage of Harry at an ATM, they're torn between dismissing it as a hoax and confronting the possibility of an alien presence. Written by Peter Hogan and illustrated by Steve Parkhouse, with a cover by Raymond Swanland, this issue blends quiet tension with a creeping sense of unease in a world where reality is far from what it seems.
