From secret laboratories to trackless alien worlds, humans have captured or encountered the xenomorphs--almost always to their horror. No matter if the humans are armed with sophisticated weapons or the Aliens are cybernetically controlled, sooner or later claws tear into flesh and inner-jaws slam into skulls! In this second installment of the essential Aliens comics, there are six stories which have stood the test of time and have become classics of the genre. Among them- Salvation by Dave Gibbon and Mike Mignola, Layrinth by Jim Woodring and Kilian Plunkett, Sacrifice by Peter Milligan and Paul Johnson, and Harvest by Jerry Prosser and Kelley Jones, and two short tales with art by Simon Bisley and Mark A. Nelson. Horror has never felt so real--or looked so good!
Dave Gibbons has drawn and written for most comics publishers on both sides of the Atlantic. His work has encompassed DOCTOR WHO, SUPERMAN, BATMAN, GREEN LANTERN, CAPTAIN AMERICA, DOCTOR STRANGE, THE HULK, PREDATOR, and ALIENS. WATCHMEN, his collaboration with writer Alan Moore, is the best-selling graphic novel ever published and became a major motion picture. His autobiographical graphic novel THE ORIGINALS won an Eisner Award in 2005. His recent work has included KINGSMAN- THE SECRET SERVICE, with Mark Millar, now also a major motion picture. He co-created GIVE ME LIBERTY and MARTHA WASHINGTON GOES TO WAR with writer Frank Miller. He was appointed "Comics Laureate" of the UK in 2014, with the brief to develop the use of comics in education. The University of Dundee awarded him an Honorary Doctorate in Comic Arts in 2015.
