The second story deals with a cult that worships that Xenomorphs and reveals that the morally-bankrupt Weyland-Yutani Corporation has one of the creatures on Earth. He brings along Newt, who has been left mentally scarred from her experience and living in an asylum. The first deals with Hicks leading a new team of marines to destroy a newly discovered alien hive on yet another distant planet. Many of the concepts introduced, such as the royal jelly, became mainstays in "Alien" comics for years to come.īefore the release of "Alien 3," a trilogy of comic book series was written that told the further adventures of Hicks and Newt, two of the surviving characters from "Aliens." Set several years after they encountered the Xenomorphs on Acheron (aka, LV-426), the series tells two stories. Aside from the art, this series is remembered for being the first comic to really step away from the movies and start to develop the aliens as their own species, with derivatives therein. This leads to beautifully drawn scenes of battles between thousands of monsters, with the marines caught right in the middle.
When they get there, however, they find two different warring species of aliens: the traditional aliens and a new red-skinned alien.
It's also been discovered that the queens secrete a jelly, which acts like a super steroid when ingested by humans, so a team of marines is sent to what is believed to be the Xenomorph homeworld to capture a queen and her precious jelly. Written by Mike Richardson and John Arcudi, with art from Damon Willis, Karl Story and Arthur Suydam, "Genocide" is set after the events of the movies, when the aliens have become common knowledge among humans. While it wasn't the first Alien comic book series, "Genocide" is one of the most recognizable series due to the introduction of the red aliens.
