Novelizing the Comics?

[Extroheal]

The problem with Destroying Angels is that it's set between Alien and Aliens and it mentions that Weyland-Yutani went to the Derelict and got some eggs, although the movie Aliens implies that they forgot all about the Derelict and only found out about it from Ripley.

I don't think the Derelict in that comic was the same as the LV-426 one...?

The one at the start? It's one they found floating in space if I remember rightly.

Yes I know it's a different Derelict but in the first issue it's briefly mentioned that WY went back to the LV-426 Derelict. It's this knowledge that leads that rogue scientist to find the second Derelict. In the course of the story it's discovered that WY smuggled some alien eggs on the main characters' ship in an attempt to sabotage their expedition.
