☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join free A dominant Xenomorph lunges straight at the viewer on Zach Howard's striking cover for this 2009 Dark Horse series opener, its biomechanical frame filling the frame while additional creatures swarm through a decaying urban backdrop. The composition's low angle and glowing blue atmospheric details give the whole image a sense of overwhelming, relentless threat. With John Arcudi writing and Howard handling both pencils and inks, this first issue promises a serious, visceral take on one of science fiction's most enduring horrors.
