There's a saying on the internet that "men will fight demons before going to therapy," but what happens when supernatural creatures themselves need to go to therapy? That's a question that an upcoming graphic novel from Comixology Originals, Parapsychologist, seeks to answer. 

From co-writers Taki Soma and Mark Schey, Parapsychologist "is a comedic family drama and mystery that follows a therapist whose patients are paranormal beings with human-like issues" according to a press release. The art for the graphic novel is by Cat Farris, with Chris Northrop on letters. The story will be hitting Comixology Originals on March 31, 2026. 

The star of Parapsychologist is Dr. Ron Richards, who has inadvertently carved a niche for himself in treating paranormal beings. "From poltergeists with agoraphobia, werewolves struggling with their toxic masculinity, to a ghost stuck in limbo due to unfinished business—Ron treats them all, while navigating the chaos of his own family life. So, when a former patient arrives intent on destroying him, his practice, and his family, Dr. Richards and his new receptionist must work together to outsmart the evil." 

Take a look at the preview pages for Parapsychologist below. 

Co-writer Taki Soma said in a press release, “I take psychotherapy very seriously, having been a patient on and off for decades. So, while Parapsychologist is fiction and a comedy, I want to break the taboo a little, to make people feel understood, and less alone in their pain because I’ve been there: trauma, sadness, tragedy, loneliness. I hope Parapsychologist gives readers a laugh and maybe a little feeling of recognition along the way.”

Mark Schey revealed the significance that co-writing the story had for them in these trying times. “When we set out to begin this tale about mental health disguised as a comedic paranormal story, we also happened to enter what would become some of the hardest years of our lives. There’s nothing quite like putting your sense of humor on display during one of the most difficult moments of your life. We were barely holding it together, but we pushed through and found the process therapeutic. We are hopeful people will connect with the story and are grateful to everyone who gives it a chance.”

Parapsychologist will be released on Comixology Originals on March 31, 2026.
