I thought we'd get a thread going for Alien: Life and Death!

Randy Stradley just shared this sneak peek of the cover of #1.



Goes on sale in September.

Looks cool! I'm looking forward to seeing what surprises they have in store for us. Maybe we'll even find out what happened to Derrick Russel! Hopefully we see some more variant xenos that spawned from the indigenous species.

So it looks like AvP: Life and Death will be the last mini-series, before the wrap-up issue.

sweet cover art!

What a year to get back into the franchise, so much wonderful stuff being released.

Awesome.   Good to see year round Aliens comics again.  All they need now is to invite the "Thing From Another World" comics to the party.

I know it isn't 100% confirmed that Thies is doing the art for this series, but he just posted another pic from his upcoming project on Instagram. Note the xeno tail visible on the paper underneath the main image.  ;D

I would be happy to have thies do the art for the Alien series, I think it would be a better match than it was with the predator series.

Sorry for the lack of context, I saw this with 90 seconds left on my break. The artist this time around is Moritat.

I want to see that battle against the Engineers!

Sounds like they're taking the overlap quite seriously this time around.

The Sachin Teng covers certainly have a consistent style, even if it's not one I care too much for. Given that Moritat is doing the art on this, I wonder what Thies' mystery project is? Maybe he's doing the Omega wrap-up issue?

Also worth noting
Spoiler
not one mention of the black goo in any of the solicitations so far. Maybe they're giving it a break?

Hopefully we see a variety of xenos that have hatched from the different black goo monsters.


Digging around on DeviantArt and Twitter to see what I can find on Moritat, found this (some of which is from a few years ago, so not from L&D):

He definitely has an interesting style!

That looks masterful. Love it. To bad we have to wait until September. That feels like a long wait just to read the first issue. Such is the comic life I suppose.
