This is a fun miniseries. It has all the stuff you would want from an Aliens book. It reads pretty quickly because there isn't a lot of dialogue or exposition. I found myself slowing down to take in the art though. The art helps create tension at some key moments and ties things together at the end. I had been interested in reading this for a while. Glad I had the opportunity to check it out.

Very disappointed with this. The storyline is not great or even original. The artwork is terrible: in some frames the Xenos look like the Isz from The Maxx and the whole thing looks like it was drawn by a teenager. Really could not recommend this to anybody.

It's filled with lovingly detailed space ships and xenobiology, and yet, it feels exactly like every single other Alien story ever told. A remarkable disappointment after reading accolades.

Didn't love the art and found the story to be pretty standard. Not sure why this got such rave reviews

Such a joy to read. I’m a sucker for any Alien franchise media so I’m a bit biased. I didn’t mind that the story didn’t have much originality from other Alien plots because I had so much fun reading it. Art was incredible- had to linger on a few pages just to admire the artwork in its entirety. Not sure it would be a 5 star for most, but it’s been one of my favorite reads of 2021!

I honestly think this is a horror masterpiece. Sure it's a throwback to the original film, focusing on claustrophobic horror and dread rather than action and spectacle. But if you're a fan of the original 1979 Alien, that's the type of story you like. It's a tense story about a crew investigating an unmarked vessel that contains a team in cryogenic sleep, a ship in ruins, and a parasitic monster waiting to attack. It's everything I want out of an Alien graphic novel to be honest and quick read to boot!

Grisly, gritty, well paced. Everything you'd want in an Aliens comic.
