Description

"Aliens: Havoc" is a two-issue comic book series released by Dark Horse Comics in June and July 1997. Written by Mark Schultz, it is an artists' jam: the art changes hands about every two pages, with more than forty contributors including Arthur Adams, Kelley Jones, Geof Darrow and Mœbius. The covers are by Kent Williams and Duncan Fegredo.

The Lunar Maru was Weyland-Yutani's safest and most luxurious star liner, the flagship of the Red Giant Line. It now drifts as a derelict in the middle of an asteroid belt, where it seems to have been stuck for months. The company sends Trispast Salvage, a firm it has just bought, to investigate and recover the ship.

The salvage crew boards a liner overrun by Aliens. A disembodied voice guides them through the corridors toward a hidden laboratory. Every page is seen through the eyes of a crew member who never appears in the panels.
