Resident Alien #3

Peter Hogan and Steve Parkhouse's Resident Alien: The Sam Hain Mystery brings a moody noir atmosphere to this 2015 Dark Horse collection, with Parkhouse's cover setting the tone beautifully. A trench-coated figure with an alien visage looms in the foreground while a bald man in sunglasses levels a pistol, and an elegant woman in a black dress watches from the shadows under a dim light. It's a striking, pulpy tableau that promises mystery, danger, and the quietly eerie charm that makes this series so distinctive.
