The Patchwork Earth

Peter Croome’s The Patchwork Earth is a singular, self-contained comic from 1988, written and illustrated entirely by Croome. This single issue presents a self-contained vision of a world literally stitched together from disparate fragments, exploring themes of memory and identity through Croome’s distinctive, intricate artwork. As an auteur project from a creator who has sustained it across decades, it stands as a unique, personal artifact in independent comics.
