Resident Alien: The Book of Life #4

The four-issue Resident Alien: The Book of Life miniseries from Dark Horse reaches its conclusion here, with Steve Parkhouse handling every aspect of the art — pencils, inks, and colors throughout. The cover puts three alien figures front and center, the largest rising from a calm lake in full armored regalia, glowing yellow eyes fixed forward, while two smaller companions emerge from the water on either side against a dusky purple mountain sky — a quietly striking image that balances the otherworldly with the serene. Fans of Peter Hogan and Parkhouse's long-running collaboration, and viewers of the Syfy adaptation, will want this 2024 finale on their shelf.
