Thomas Chase wakes up from cryosleep to his first day at a new job-as a pilot for a contraband drug company dropping a shipment on Fantasia, a rock-planet terraformed to hide an elaborate drug manufacturing operation.

A group of wildcat planetary prospectors plant their flag on a distant new world, rich in land, resources . . . and the greatest archaeological discovery in history, an ancient complex of impossible proportions carved deep within the living rock, a mind-numbing labyrinth of passages, ramps, bridges, and galleries that seems to extend limitlessly. But as the exploration of the leviathan dead city proceeds deeper and deeper, the members of the team slowly begin to lose their grip on reality, and madness gives way to fear as the explorers begin to disappear.

Dark Horse Comics took the industry by storm with its release of Aliens, a comics series that for the first time captured the power of film source material and expanded its universe in a way that fans applauded worldwide.

Many humans have died horribly at the claws of the Alien.

The old saying "You can't unbreak an egg" holds true, especially when that egg unleashes an interstellar scourge, the dreaded Alien.

Like sports, the victor is he who wants it more. Unlike sports, the loser earns extinction.

Living with the Alien has become a fact of life-and death-as mankind expands throughout the galaxy.

Mankind has always struggled to balance exploration and exploitation when stepping into new lands.

In 1979, science fiction and horror were brought together in director Ridley Scott's classic film Alien.

Mankind's two ultimate nightmares come together in mortal combat, and whoever wins-we lose.

Mankind's most lethal adversaries battle for supremacy, and whoever wins-we lose. In a skyliner high above the Alien-contaminated earth, Caryn Delacroix can't sleep.

WHOEVER WINS ... WE LOSE! In the farthest reaches of space, a creature terrified us. Acid blood.

Jackie Estacado, a mob hitman possessing a mysterious, malevolent force known as the Darkness, and New York Police Detective Sara Pezzini, wielding an equally mysterious weapon, the Witchblade, are abducted and trapped in a realm of illusory violence and bottomless time.
