Justin Fisher (also known as Harlequin) is the principal author of Aliens TC, the first total conversion mod for Doom, the term possibly being coined by Fisher himself.

He is notable as the author of one of the very few Doom modifications to gain widespread recognition in mainstream media and gaming press. In the week after the release of Doom II, there was more discussion about Aliens TC on Usenet than about the new sequel. Fisher was offered jobs by several game development studios, which he declined at the time due to a desire to finish his then-ongoing education. He went on to mod for various other games including Quake, and eventually took positions in the game industry, including one at Mad Genius Software.
