Alien: Black, White & Blood #4

A Xenomorph looms in striking crimson relief on this fourth installment of Marvel's anthology series, its elongated skull and clawed limbs rendered in dark, gleaming detail against a blood-red field. Alien: Black, White & Blood continues to showcase a remarkable roster of talent — Collin Kelly, Jackson Lanzing, Michael Dowling, Bryan Hill, Chriscross, Andres Mossa, Pornsak Pichetshote, and Partha Pratim all contributing to this 2024 collection of horror-tinged stories. If the cover's oppressive, crimson-drenched atmosphere is any indication, this penultimate issue delivers the same beautifully unsettling vision that has defined the series.
