Artists, Writers, and Artisans (AWA) has announced its digital-first series ET-ER from writer Jeff McComsey and artist Javier Pulido, which focuses on a sci-fi hospital, is available now for free on WEBTOON and Tapas. The cover, by Andrew Robinson, is seen here.
“Severed tentacle won’t grow back? Intergalactic virus has liquefied one of your heads? Feeling a bit woozy ever since you drove through that black hole? Make a beeline for Roswell General, the galaxy’s leading medical facility,” reads the series’ official synopsis. “Secretly serving the cosmos since 1947, this interplanetary crew of doctors, nurses, paramedics and technicians is uniquely qualified to cure what ails you – no matter where you’re from.
“Today’s patient? An alien from the boondocks of outer space whose deadly immune system will put the doctors to the ultimate test: to save their patient, they must first survive him. But that’s just one story in the truly limitless universe of ET-ER, which stands at the intersection of E.R. and Men in Black. For the courageous health care workers at Roswell General, no planet is too far, no asteroid is too small, and no life form is too, well, alien, for their care – and they accept most forms of insurance.”
AWA previously outlined its plans for digital-first releases, which will split upcoming issues of its planned series into multiple parts for digital release.
