READ ALIEN (2021) #1 ON MARVEL UNLIMITED!

The iconic cinematic terror is here, and we promise you that the darkness will never look the same...

The Xenomorph swarm encroaches in Alien (2021) #1.

Phillip Kennedy Johnson and Salvador Larroca team up to tell an all-new tale of the titan of horror and science fiction that has scared audiences for decades. ALIEN (2021) is rooted in the same world that movie-goers know and fear, set with a cast of characters from the year 2200, 20 years after the fall of the Hadley’s Hope colony. In the present, the Weyland-Yutani corporation still controls vast swaths of the spaceways. But there are still some things in space that cannot be controlled...

Former defense agent Gabriel Cruz gave his life to Weyland-Yutani—and in the case of an alien attack he barely survived, almost literally. Recently retired, Cruz is trying to patch things up with his abandoned son with the help of his friend, a Bishop-model android, but his re-entry into civilian life is not going smoothly… and his encounters with the deadly Xenomorph are far from over. No one is safe. No one is innocent. And no one can hear you scream.
