Not to mention that not all comics prior to this are so masterful.

To be honest, there's been much more bad than good.

Unpopular opinion, but of the limited stuff I've read, my favorite comic of Dark Horse's entire run has probably been Inhuman Condition.
Have you read Labyrinth

I have not, but I keep having that one get recommended to me so I'm definitely going to give it a go.

You really should, it's excellent.

I'm not saying Inhuman Condition is bad, but you can do a lot better.

The other ones I recall really enjoying are The Illustrated Story, Dead Orbit, Sacrifice, and Salvation. Genocide definitely seems like one that I would be all over.

I am a huge fan of the medium. Huge. Alien and Predator belong at Darkhorse, one of there tentpoles from the beginning.  I've been dreading this news since the acquisition. Marvel is not a good fit but it's still too early too tell. Their "take" on Conan and Star Wars has been sub par compared to Darkhorse. Here's hoping tho, "Building Better Worlds"

Thank you Dark Horse for the good Alien stories over the years such as Glass Corridor, Sacrifice, Salvation, Survival, Inhuman Condition, Labyrinth, Wraith, Alchemy, Dust To Dust and above all the rest Dead Orbit.

Nightmare Asylum

And, the absolute best comic, Aliens: Lovesick. :D

Concerning continuity I think it's best to stay with the continuity I outlined above.

Corporal Hicks

Let's recognise the truth here. It was all about the Mondo series.

Nightmare Asylum

And here I was thinking that what we all wanted was the last two missing issues of Colonial Marines...

Xenomrph

I'll never understand the love for Dead Orbit, the first half sucks and the second half is only passable.

Also, "HGK! HGK! HGK! HGK!"

Ur taste sucs m8

I've got to agree with the Fiendishly Inventive black goo here. Dead Orbit was fantastic. Doesn't need dialogue to be good!

Story wise Dead Orbit is whatever, it is a pretty standard Alien-on-a-ship comic. I just absolutely love Stokoe's art.

I want to say only one thing - art is unbelievable great! Especially Alien - such incredible detail. I look forward to a full-fledged comic strip.
