damn, now that's some re-imagining if i ever saw one, awesome design! looks more like it came right from a horror/action book rather than a comic XD

So how does Parasite's absorption ability work. Does he gain all powers, skills and memories? Or is there a limit?

He’s basically a bio battery, and a broad spectrum energy sump at the same time. If he runs out of room he has, at least once, compensated by growing bigger. Good thing too, because Superman came very close to accidentally breaking his vow not to kill, that time. He can absorb any kind of energy, but finds non-biological energy, particularly electricity, “...to be like bran, bland-o-Rama”, and in spite of its abundance, avoids it unless he’s desperate, preferring to live by murder.

I love the washed out colors around the mouth and the hands. That sells this for me more than I think any other part. It's a fantastic decision and plays very well into the concept. The colors visually depict his hunger in a way that is rarely done. Bravo.

Parasite truly looks like a monster in this universe.

Yeah, since he's a Mutant, also referred to as a Deviant.

The mouth within a mouth reminds me of the xenomorph from Aliens which is what I think phil-cho and Roysovitch were going for, also I like how his hands glow to signify how his touch will steal your powers.

The CW version of Parasite (on Supergirl) also went for the "mouth within a mouth" route:

You're right, I'd forgotten about that, too bad they killed him off so quickly!

Seeing as there's a person inside this thing, I'm guessing it's not a version that was created when someone ate a contaminated doughnut?

The Bleached hands and face are new, but they rock! Nice design features!

Is he the result of a chemical accident or an ancient alien parasite on E27?

After looking him up on Google...why not go with the female version of Parasite?
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
I was seriously tempted to do so. I decided the matter with a coin flip.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Because the male version is more iconic.

Huh. What's with the white discolorations?
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
The white is just a color variation on his face and hands. Other parts of him, like his feet and parts of his back are white as well.

I believe he is becoming someone else.

Jesus, Mary, and Joesph!! Thank God I was sober and fully awake when I saw this. Holy shit Phil, this is creepy as hell. Amazing job, though, but still creepy.

Does his skin turn white when he absorbs powers or is it always like that?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's always like that in E27.

Dear Lord, is this creepy! As if Supes didn't have enough to be afraid of already!

I really like how you can see the mouth of the person he is coating. Really cool design all around.

I really love the design. Parasite is one of those bad guys that has a ton of designs but I can easily see this as a one time human that had an accident happen to him. Phil did an awesome job with the teeth as well. That has to be tough

This is so well designed! Parasite is a major threat to Superman.
