Following the theatrical release of Alien: Romulus, the latest installment in the groundbreaking Alien film franchise, Marvel Comics proudly presents an ALIEN: ROMULUS comic one-shot next month that tackles one of the film’s lingering mysteries. Today, fans can check out all the covers and never-before-seen interior artwork.

On sale October 16, ALIEN: ROMULUS #1 is written by horror master Zac Thompson (Absolute Carnage: Avengers, I Breathed a Body) and drawn by rising star Daniel Picciotto (Danny Ketch: Ghost Rider, X-Force). The film took “Alien” storytelling back to its roots with a thrilling saga of young space colonizers coming face to face with the most terrifying life form in the universe. Marvel’s one-shot will take place prior to the events of the film, providing an illuminating backstory behind the film’s main threat. Made in close partnership with Director Fede Alvarez and frequent collaborator Rodo Sayagues, both of whom wrote Alien: Romulus, the one-shot adds a new layer to one of the biggest film releases of the year.

Marvel Comics presents an all-new story revealing secrets of the film’s legendary antagonists. This issue shines light on the tragedy that occurred on the space station Renaissance before Rain, Andy, and their crew had their own terrifying encounter there!

“The Alien franchise is responsible for my lifelong love of body horror, so needless to say, I’m ecstatic to be contributing a small piece to the canon,” Thompson shared. “Working with Fede Alvarez to craft a prequel to Alien: Romulus was a genuine dream come true and a responsibility I don’t take lightly. The result is a thrilling, terrifying story that slowly gestates into something wholly unpredictable.”

Perso, j'en ai marre de ces couperoses qui polluent les comics depuis plus de 10 ans. A quoi servent-elles ?
Même sans ça, les dessins de cette preview ne sont pas à la hauteur de l'événement.
Dommage.
