  Summary

  When Dib leaves Earth at twenty-one to pursue his dream of joining the resistance and “making a difference”, there's good news and bad news.
  The good news is that he joins one of the best resistance squads. Yay!
  The bad news is that his boss turns out to be the same alien who disappeared from his life when he was thirteen and never explained why. But there's something different about him... something's off.

  Nothing that the best paranormal investigator can't figure out! All he has to do is figure out what's going on with Zim, destroy the Irken Empire and resolve his father-son issues — a piece of cake!
