An ALIEN Romulus prelude comic is being planned for release by MARVEL and offers to chronicle events that unfold prior to those depicted in the movie. One of the core contents of this new story committed to sequential narrative reveals secrets of the film’s main creatures. This is a unique one shot comic with two variant covers. Here is the main cover art by Leinil Francis Yu (Right) depicting the original 1979 Alien monster; along with Björn Barends alternate cover (Left) featuring Federez’ new Alien creature.
Here’s some info about this upcoming publication, “Marvel’s one-shot will take place prior to the events of the film, providing an illuminating backstory behind the film’s main threat. Made in close partnership with Director Fede Alvarez and frequent collaborator Rodo Sayagues, both of whom wrote Alien: Romulus, the comic is a must-have companion to one of the most highly anticipated films of the summer.” Not a big fan of comics myself these days but this item can certainly be treated as a prologue of sorts to ALIEN Romulus due to the director and writer of the movie being involved in its production. You can pre-order the upcoming ALIEN: Romulus comic at your local comic shop today and it will be available on store shelves on October 16, 2024.
