Ame-Comi II: Batgirl #1

Writer: Justin Gray and Jimmy Palmiotti

Rodrigo

Resident Alien #2

Writer: Peter Hogan

Artist: Steve Parkhouse

Publisher: Dark Horse Comics

A stranded alien bides his time in the sleepy town of Patience, USA. Living undercover as a semi-retired doctor, his only hope is to stay off humanity's radar until he can be rescued. When he's pulled into a surprising murder mystery by the town's desperate mayor and struggling police chief, Dr. Harry Vanderspeigle learns more about the human condition than he ever wanted to. He also finds police procedural work to be oddly appealing, and it'll certainly kill time until he's found. Acclaimed creators Peter Hogan (2000 AD, Tom Strong) and Steve Parkhouse (Milkman Murders, Doctor Who) deliver a truly unique sci-fi adventure tale with heart and humor!
