Hectic Planet

Evan Dorkin’s Hectic Planet (1993–1996, Slave Labor) is a brief but memorable slice of early-’90s indie comics, running just two issues. Written and drawn entirely by Dorkin, the series offers a chaotic, humorous glimpse into a bizarre alien world through the eyes of its misfit inhabitants. Though short-lived, it showcases the offbeat sensibility and sharp cartooning that would later define Dorkin’s cult-favorite work like Milk & Cheese. For fans of quirky, creator-driven comics, Hectic Planet is a compact blast of Dorkin’s signature wit.
