10 Best Comic First Issues This Week (Jan 2, 2019)

10. Alien 101 #1

In Alien 101, Several aliens had been sent to Earth to better understand human emotions and life, including the protagonist. Navigating the halls of high school are hard enough but being an alien, that just makes it tougher.

Eli Beaird is both writer and artist, and that singular creative force is what really brings out the charm in this title. The premise itself is somewhat standard, reflecting on the nature of love, life and surviving high school by placing the lead as an outsider to the human condition, but it works all the same.

There are moments that are predictable or even over-written but the sheer potential and charm of this comic makes it worthy of a mention.
