After quite a few years in the doldrums, the Alien franchise is enjoying a full resurgence. The recent Alien: Romulus made a significant box office splash and Noah Hawley's new TV show Alien: Earth will be (chest) bursting onto our screens in 2025. Now Marvel has announced its latest Alien comic – a five-issue limited series that relocates the action to an unusual location: a luxury resort.
Alien: Paradiso is written by Steve Foxe with art from Edgar Salazar and Peter Nguyen. Although the series' human characters are on holiday, Marvel's press release for the book suggests that they're "far from innocent, and as the Xenomorph bathes this picturesque landscape in blood and carnage, the familiar corruption, greed, and horror that comes with the territory of Alien storytelling rears its ugly head!"
