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!

Strange parasites have invaded Earth and taken over the minds of ordinary people. Shinichi has also been infected with a parasite, but he can still think and act for himself, and that makes him different. He’s already been approached by two mysterious victims of the invasion: Ryoko Tamiya, a schoolteacher, and her former lover, A. While Ryoko may yet be ally or foe, Shinichi barely escaped A’s attack with his life intact. Now, there’s a new parasite in town, and he’s a student in Shinichi’s school! Just what do these parasites want with humanity…and with Shinichi?

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. After a parasite invaded Shinichi's body and ate his right arm, Shinichi hasn't been the same. He's become something monstrous, but unlike the rest of the parasites, he's retained his mind, including his human conscience, which weighs on him heavily. He now walks a thin line between the humans who have uncovered the truth, and the parasites who know of his hybrid existence. As the situation starts to escalate, what will happen to Shinichi?

Presented in eight volumes containing about 300 pages of manga each. Shinichi Izumi might seem like an ordinary high school boy, but he harbors a deadly secret--an alien parasite has taken him as its host. After failing to subsume him completely, the parasite was forced to settle in his right arm, and a strange partnership was born. With threats around every corner--parasite and human alike--they must learn to work together or perish. But this parasite is ruthless, deadly, and utterly indifferent to human suffering...and it seems to have an influence on Shinichi that's more than skin deep. As Shinichi fights for control of his body, can he also hold on to his humanity?

An ordinary teenage boy named Shinichi Izumilives with his parents in a quiet neighborhood until alien parasites invade. They are worm-like creatures that enter human 'hosts' through their ears or noses, and take over their brains. A Parasite attempts to crawl into Shinichi's ear and take over his brain while he sleeps, but is stopped by his headphones and accidentally burrows into one of his hands instead. With separate intellects, he and his parasite, Migi, fight the invasion of the town.

SILENT INVASION
They arrive in silence and darkness. They descend from the skies. They have a hunger for human flesh. They are everywhere. They are parasites, alien creatures who must invade-and take control of-a human host to survive. And once they have infected their victims, they can assume any deadly form they choose: monsters with giant teeth, winged demons, creatures with blades for hands. But most have chosen to conceal their lethal purpose behind ordinary human faces. So no one knows their secret-except an ordinary high school student. Shin is battling for control of his own body against an alien parasite, but can he find a way to warn humanity of the horrors to come?
