Melonpool follows the adventures of several aliens as they explore the galaxy, dabble in time travel and try to blend into Earth society. Ranging in diverse personalities from pop culture-obsessed superfans to coffee-addicted meglomaniacs, pop star robots, telepathic dogs and a 220-lb, five-foot-tall hamster, they slowly have to learn to work together just to survive — and still find time to save the galaxy. It’s Star Trek meets Gilligan’s Island for geeks of all ages.

From 1996 to 2016, over 2,800 strips were created, chronicled into seven “Old School” volumes (and one reboot) as well as six “Ultimate” collections. The Old School editions collect all the comics, but if you enjoy DVD commentaries and behind-the-scencs trivia, The Ultimate Melonpools are for you!
