Get Into the Mixx

Mixx Publications Inc., based out of Los Angeles, California, will be publishing the detective action thriller ICE BLADE and award-winning sci-fi hit sensation PARASYTE in addition to the ever popular SAILOR MOON in its upcoming motionless picture entertainment magazine, MIXXZINE.

You'll be on the edge of your seat as you frantically flip pages to reach the end of each episode.
Originally published in Japanese as KISEIJU, PARASYTE is written and drawn by Iwaaki Hitoshi.
This horror science-fiction masterpiece is one of the most famous and successful mangas of all-time. PARASYTE's teenage hero, Shin, has to save all of mankind before the treacherous parasytes take over the human race.
One day, mysterious spores float down to Earth, their origin unknown. The worm-like creatures that slime from these spores invade animal and human host, assimilating their brains, and controlling their nervous systems. The parasyte race is smart, and it quickly becomes a secret power within the society, disguising itself as top politicians, police, and businessmen. The only visible traces are mangled corpses and bloody bodies that appear every now and then, victims to parasyte feasting. Shin, together with a mutated parasyte on his left arm are forced to cooperate in order for each other's survival in a strange symbiotic relationship. Using his newly-given strengths, Shin battles step-by-step to protect and save his fellow humans.
In Japan, PARASYTE was a runaway success, winning the island nation's 1993 award for the Best Comic.
