While this certainly isn't the greatest story to ever appear in Britain's 2000AD magazine, writer Alan Moore and artist Jim Baikie do a serviceable job, telling the tale of a peaceful alien crash landing on Earth, and the not-so-peaceful government authorities who want him at any cost. Luckily, our hero "Skizz" has a group of sympathetic Earthlings who just want to help him return home. If this sounds familiar, well, it's basically "ET" set in Birmingham, England, with a bit more serious and practical tone. This is very generic work from Moore, and it shows in comparison to his later masterpieces. Still, SKIZZ is an engaging tale, with excellent characterization, and some genuinely funny moments.
