Alien:Dead Orbit by James Stokoe

Orc Stain has been RIP for a long time

Needs more sexy xeno cheesecake.

Stokoe's on Alien?
Niccccce.

I like to think H.R. Giger would approve.

I want to see more titles set in the immediate period after Ripley first signs off (the big 50-year gap between "Alien" and "Aliens").

ORC STAIN FUCKING WHEN

You know, I'm honestly surprised that Dark Horse never tried to cross over Aliens and Star Wars, considering that the two of them were probably their biggest licensed moneymakers until the Star Wars license went back over to Marvel. It wouldn't even have to be canon.

>'’Dead Orbit’ mostly takes place on the space station Sphacteria in a rather forgotten and secluded area of space,” Stokoe explains. “It’s a pretty ragged, worn looking setting. [The Xenomorphs] are definitely not there to give the space station crew a helping hand, so I’d say they’re as much of an antagonist as an unknowable monster can be. I don’t really consider them to be that sinister; they just have a very violent, predatory life cycle which sucks if you’re a human and happen to be their neighbor.”

Alien Isolation the comic?

It definitely looks like "Alien: Isolation" is having an impact.

Though if it's influenced by "Alien: Isolation" and set in the time before "Aliens", it should be called "Alien" not "Aliens".

Probably because with Star Wars technology Xenomorphs would be a whole lot more easily dealt with to the point they might just be considered a step above vermin rather than some frightening monster.

Isolation really was the best installment in the series since Alien 3. I think the new world building it introduced was a the sot in the arm the franchise needed.

This cover looks really good.
