The Intergalactic Nemesis (Book One: Target Earth) is a stage show written and directed by Jason Neulander, based out of Austin, TX.
It is billed as a "live-action graphic novel," due to its combination of the visual medium of comic books with elements of radio play and traditional stage performance.
In the midst of telling Molly about 'terrible monsters' living nearby, Vlad is assassinated and the pair are forced to flee, aided by a glasses-wearing stranger.
Ben claims to know the cause of all the strange happenings, an alien race called 'Zygonians' - fearsome sludge monsters, acidic to the touch and dedicated to wiping out human life.

He invited Jessica Reisman, Julia Edwards, and Lisa D'Amour to join Ray on the writing team and The Intergalactic Nemesis was born.
Because the process was so quick, the writers named the main characters after the actors who played them: Ben Willcott, Molly Rice, and Japhy Fernandez.
As the two collaborators began work on the comic-book, Cliff Redd asked Neulander to bring the show into Dell Hall at the Long Center.
