Description

"Do Aliens Dream?" is a short comic book story published by Argus House in the British horror magazine "Skeleton Crew" (vol. 2, #2) in July 1990. Written by Adrien Rigelsford and drawn in black and white by Lee Brimmicombe-Wood, it is not part of the Dark Horse Aliens line.

The story has no dialogue and is seen entirely from the creature's point of view. It hatches as a Facehugger and finds a host. It bursts out as a Chestburster, then makes its way to a hive growing inside an atmosphere processor. The planet is never named. It may be LV-426.

That issue of "Skeleton Crew" had an "Aliens" theme and used John Bolton's cover for "Aliens: Earth War" #1. Brimmicombe-Wood later wrote the "Aliens: Colonial Marines Technical Manual." The story has never been reprinted.
