The sci-fi horror manga classic returns in a fully-colorized premium-quality hardcover for
the first time! If you've never read the story of Shinichi and the polite and murderous alien
infesting his right arm--or even if you already own the series--there's never been a better way
to collect it. Presented in eight volumes containing about 300 pages of manga each. They arrive
in silence out of dark skies. They infest human hosts and consume them. And they are
everywhere. They are Parasites: alien creatures who must invade and take control of human hosts
to survive. Once they have infected their victims they can twist their hosts's bodies into any
abominable shapes they choose: craniums splitting to reveal mouths of sharp teeth batlike
wings erupting from backs blades tearing through soft hands. But most have chosen to conceal
their lethal purposes behind ordinary human faces. No one knows their secret except an
ordinary high school student. Shinichi managed to stop the infestation of his body by an alien
parasite but can he find a way to warn humanity of the horrors to come? For more than 30 years
new generations of readers have been riveted to this unlikely buddy story that unfolds amid a
world of monstrosities that never stay hidden for long. Since its first release in 1988
Parasyte has inspired live-action films spinoffs and in 2015 a global hit anime series. The
Full Color Collection presents Hitoshi Iwaaki's original manga in hardcover for the first time
with each page carefully colorized and a revised translation for 2022. There's never been a
better time to stay up late and get your hand on Parasyte!
