Skizz

Skizz is an alien stranded on Earth after crash-landing in Birmingham, England, struggling to survive in an unfamiliar world while forming an unlikely bond with a young local woman. Created by Alan Moore, the character debuted in 2000 AD in 1983.

Few characters in the pages of 2000 AD arrive with quite the pedigree that Skizz does — debuting in 1983, this Bronze Age creation of Alan Moore and artist Jim Baikie brought something genuinely distinctive to Fleetway's legendary anthology, holding their own alongside the likes of Rogue Trooper, Sam Slade, and Judge Dredd himself. With five key-issue appearances flagged by collectors and a publishing life that stretched across twelve years into the mid-nineties, Skizz proved far more than a fleeting experiment from one of comics' most celebrated writers. For anyone building a serious 2000 AD collection or simply wanting to experience Moore's British work beyond the titles that made him globally famous, these 52 appearances are an essential and rewarding trail to follow.
