Illegal Aliens

The single-issue Illegal Aliens (1992) is a satirical one-shot from Eclipse Comics that imagines a world where extraterrestrial beings are treated as undocumented immigrants, skewering American immigration policy through a science-fiction lens. Written and drawn by a creative team not specified here, this standalone story uses the metaphor of alien arrival to explore themes of prejudice, bureaucracy, and the human condition. Though brief, it stands as a pointed, era-specific artifact of early-1990s independent comics, reflecting Eclipse’s willingness to tackle controversial social issues with genre twists. Its singular publication makes it a curious, self-contained experiment in political commentary.
