I Come in Peace

In this short-lived 1991–1992 series from Greater Mercury Comics, writer Charles Holland and artist Darryl Cobbs crafted a two-issue, sci-fi-inflected crime thriller centered on a mysterious alien visitor whose arrival on Earth triggers violent, otherworldly consequences. The series stands as a minor but distinctive artifact of the early-'90s independent comics boom, showcasing Cobbs’ moody, expressive art and Holland’s taut, noir-tinged storytelling. Though brief, I Come in Peace captures the era’s fascination with blending genre tropes into gritty, character-driven narratives.
