Species: Human Race

In the mid-1990s, Dark Horse published this four-issue miniseries that explores humanity’s place in a cosmic context, with stories by Ed Gorman, Gordon Rennie, and Stephen Blue brought to life by artists Phil Hester, George Pratt, and Mark A. Nelson. A thoughtful, visually varied meditation on what it means to be human, it stands as a compact but ambitious work from the era’s creator-driven comics landscape.
