Dark Horse Comics and 20th Century Fox have teamed up once again for a new Aliens comic book series! Entitled Dead Orbit, this new series will introduce us to Wascylewsk, an engineering officer who's unfortunately trapped inside a space station following a tragic accident. Similar to the events of Amanda Ripley in Creative Assembly's first-person thriller Alien: Isolation, Wascylewsk will be forced to use everything at his disposal to survive his encounter with the dreaded Xenomorph. The comic is being written and illustrated by James Stokoe, with cover artwork provided by Geof Darrow. The first issue of this 4-part series will become available on April 26th, 2017.
