In deep space spins a world infected by the universe’s greatest killers. Most sane people would construct a barrier and leave it to rot. But the Weyland-Yutani Corporation sees the biggest payout in the history of civilization. So what if it costs a few human lives to secure? Now, select guests can board Weyland-Yutani’s ship the Descendant and uncover buried secrets from a legendary disaster on an icy moon! It’s a trip worth dying for! But when the Yutani family decides to settle the invasion of LV-695 personally, the mysterious Cole suddenly finds herself trapped between an avalanche and a watery death — and must make her hardest decisions yet! Plus: It’s alien vs. alien when a Xenomorph queen and her hive descend on a dark world…and the native life fights back! Collecting ALIEN ANNUAL (2023) #1 and ALIEN (2023B) #1-4.

A follow up from the story in 2023, this again was sold as just “Alien” and it took me a bit to figure out where the story from 2023 continued. “Descendant” is a gorgeous and well written follow up worthy of your time, especially if you liked the snow xenos from the 2023 mini series. I have some minor complaints about how the story ended, but they’re so minor I shouldn’t even be talking about them!
