About the series
Martin Pasko and Rockne S. O'Bannon adapted the premise of the 1988 sci-fi film Alien Nation for this single DC comic issue, with art by Jerry Bingham. Set in a near-future Los Angeles where an extraterrestrial slave race has been integrated into human society, the story explores the tensions and bigotry arising from this uneasy coexistence. While brief, this one-shot captures the film's thoughtful blend of police procedural and social commentary, offering a standalone glimpse into a world where humanity must confront its own prejudices through the lens of alien newcomers.
