WildC.A.T.s / Aliens

In this 1998 one-shot from Image Comics, Warren Ellis and Chris Sprouse pit the covert super-team WildC.A.T.s against the universe's deadliest predators—the Aliens. A tense, action-driven crossover that leans into Ellis's knack for sharp dialogue and hard sci-fi, it drops the team into a desperate survival scenario against a Xenomorph outbreak. A tight, self-contained thriller that captures the era's enthusiasm for mixing superhero teams with horror icons.
