The plot involves an alien scientist, David Banning, who comes to Earth and assumes human form in order to perfect technology which will radically change Earth's environment to be suitable for habitation by his own species, i.e. planetary engineering. Having discovered the true nature of Banning's plans, a team of assassins is sent to take him down. Banning's forces kill most of them, but the most dangerous one, Ethaniel, escapes and teams up with a human scientist, Dr. Laura Keating, in an attempt to prevent the destruction of Earth and humanity.

The series was filmed in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It was cancelled after one season and ended on a cliffhanger.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Manhunter (Paul Kirk)</span> Comics character

Manhunter (Paul Kirk) is a fictional character, a superhero and later anti-hero appearing in comic books published by DC Comics. He was the first published hero referred to as Manhunter within the DC Universe. Originally a plainclothes amateur detective character, Kirk was called "manhunter" only in the title of his stories, a slang term for someone who tracks down fugitives and criminals. He then dons a red and blue costume and officially adopts "Manhunter" as an alias in 1942. The character's stories ended in 1944. Paul Kirk was then revived in 1973 in a globe-trotting conspiracy thriller storyline told through a series of back-up published in Detective Comics vol. 1 #437-443. Reintroducing Kirk as more ruthless and now lethal hero working against a villainous group called the Council, the story gave him a new costume, new weapons, and a superhuman healing ability. Though the 1973 story became a critical success with readers, Kirk dies at the end of it and was not resurrected by DC Comics. Instead, the Manhunter name has passed on to other heroes (one being a clone of Paul Kirk calling himself Kirk DePaul).
