Aliens: Rogue (Comic)

Description

"Aliens: Rogue" is a four-issue comic book series released by Dark Horse Comics from April to July 1993. Written by Ian Edginton and drawn by Will Simpson, it takes place after the Grant Corporation's first mission to an Alien hive world.

John Kray is a corporate spy. His new assignment takes him and his pilot, Joyce Palmer, to Charon Base, where research director Ernst Kleist splices Alien genes. Kleist wants a breed that humans can control, and his attempts at a tame Queen keep failing. Most of the Marines on the station have been "executed" over their commander's protests, and workers keep vanishing. Kleist now wants Kray's DNA for a new approach, with or without his consent.

Sandy Schofield adapted the series into the novel "Aliens: Rogue" in 1995. Kleist's work comes back in "Aliens: Colonial Marines."

Synopsis
