Bionational's Xenomorph Specimen - Accounts of the Earth War

[@goldenface2688]

Your narration is perfect. You remind me of a game narration of Resident Evil 1. "Victims were apparently.. eaten." You put the right atmosphere in the Aliens lore.

The sequence from 4:28 would have been brilliantly twisted if it had been made into a movie. The horror of realisation and the traumatic birth scene. You've done it justice in how you've delivered here. Superb stuff.

[@TheLittleGrimmy]

This comic still haunts me. The poor captain. Great job narrating it!

[@illuminotme4261]

The small detail about the trigger pull caught me by surprise. People not familiar with using a weapon especially a pistol do not realize how trigger pull can cause bad aim. I'm left handed so I could have a tendency to shoot to the left side of a target it is vice versa for a right handed person. If the trigger has a strong pull to it squeezing it will make it turn as you pull it. This little detail shows how much thought was put into this comic. Very accurate!

[@lucascoval828]

Better time for comics.

[@ronjon7942]

Yeah, thought that as well. Was pleasantly surprised.

[@jamesburke3413]

Look at the miserable way Bionational's scientists behave. Is it any surprise the Xenomorphs wound up infesting Earth? Whether it's Weyland Yutani or Bionational they're so arrogant thinking they can control anything and everything. Even worse they never learn their lesson. Great video. This is what the Alien sequels (following Aliens) should've been.

[@brianrusso2719]

WY seems to be good at everything but picking personnel! Capt. Oram in Covenant violated every sensible new-world protocol imaginable. Don’t drink the water, don’t breathe the air…😏

[@justsomeguywithagoatee8337]

How they didn't fit every xeno with an acid proof collar or chip that could be detonated and kill said xeno if they ever breached isolation/quarantine is asinine. Then again, you'd never have compelling comics if these people were competent!

[@imnotgivingyoumyname810]

The scary thing is their experiments often yielded positive results. If given time and more resources, I have no doubt they'd enslave the alien species. However, they are very sloppy and don't take enough precautions and are ethically bankrupt.

[@nicholasdickens2801]

A.G. Jaxx The comics are brilliant you’d love at least the first 3-4 stories; Book 1 (Outbreak), published 1988-89, Book 2, 1989-1990, Book 3 (Earth War later renamed ‘Female War’) 1990, Aliens Genocide, 1991-92 (I think it concluded in 1992) and Aliens Hive,1992. Book 1 was 6 issues, books 2 through to Hive were 4 issues. For myself a lot after that were not so good. They were just mad scientists experimenting on Aliens, the other good story was Aliens: Colonial Marines, but that was a bit hit and miss. You can also get the first few stories in hardback graphic novels released last year. Volume 1 is book 1, volume 2 is book 2 and Earth War. For myself I liked the first stories the best, then around 1998 after having the franchise comic rights a decade they rebooted it for the firs time. I only got the first series Aliens: Apocalypse: Avenging Angel I think it was called. A bit of a mouthful. That showed the Alien that had grown in a Space Jockey. In the Dark Horse comics, the Space Jockey wasn’t wearing a helmet in the first film so looked rather ‘elephant like’. I far preferred that to Prometheus’ version. It always looked to me like a head fossilised in Alien, not a helmet. One reason I wasn’t too hot on the DH comics after around 1992 is I’d read them for four years and was just drifting away and losing interest. Also the Predator comics when they did Aliens Vs Predator for me were much more exciting. I think in comics they were more suited to action adventure like Aliens, than Horror in Alien. If you decide to give some a try I’d love to know what you think. They’re great stories. Sorry for the long post.

[@frostyvenom8280]

How do you think Weyland Yutani would react when they found out Bionational successfully acquired a Xenomorph specimen before them?

[@SiegeTF]

They'd try to buy Bionational. If that failed they'd try a hostile takeover... with extra hostility. I actually wouldn't mind a comic about all the wetwork Weyland Yutani gets up to.

[@frostyvenom8280]

SiegeTF Theres a bit of a look into that in Alien Covenant Origins. What do you think they'd do during the Earth infestation?

[@tyronehope877]

Frosty Venom

[@pointlessopinion611]

SiegeTF , Yeah that does sound good. It wouldn't be an Alien style comic at all but more of a Judge Dred/Blade Runner/Black Widow kind of comic, but it is would give incite into Weyland and the Jutani merger. You could get concrete facts about why they find the Xeno so valuable, not just a vague answer like warfare/genetic super soldier but a problem that only a Xeno could solve and cause no backlash. Ugh the best ideas never answer questions they create new ones.

I always loved aliens and wanted more info on the universe, glad I found this channel!

[@SpartanFlashActual]

I've always wondered why Weyland-Yu never tried a partial surgery to ease the chestburster "Birth" perhaps a modified C-Section under heavy sedation. But then again, I suppose human life was not their primary concern. That spiel of the amniotic structure being like cancer is also a minor issue, as synthetic organs were available as noted in the few characters in the Aliens universe.

[@Xenotaris]

I don't remember Weyland Yutani ever getting their hands on a person implanted with a xenomorph embryo. I know Bio-Nat did and so did the Systems Alliance but never Weyland Yutani. Elizabeth Shaw doesn't count since she did the C-section on her own and it was at a time before Weyland Corp merged with Yutani Corporation.

“Pop out like a birthday surprise.” Am I the only one that pictures Marilyn Monroe instead of a chestburster?

[@ronjon7942]

What was that movie on the battleship with Tommy Lee Jones and that moron martial arts actor who played the cook? With that Playboy model passed out inside the birthday cake, only to pop out when she woke up with no one around?? Maybe a little easier on the eyes than a xenomorph… Actually, what I ALWAYS think of whenever I see a chestburster is when Kane is at the cafe in SpaceBalls…”Not again!” Every time. “Check please!”

[@nicholasdickens2801]

The way the comics read to me was that when the Chestburster torpedoed out of the victim it automatically smashed into the Bionational man’s chest. I always figured the creature was a bit stunned after that. But I’d imagine they’d need to capture it as she would want to escape to grow and breed freely. I love your interpretation though and filling in the blanks from the story. I did love the pilots dream of escaping the facility to freedom and when he turned to his wife he saw a fully grown Alien warrior. Creepy.

How did the guard end up shot in the head?

[@KeepingItReal66441]

Not Dave I would imagine because he (the man who shot him) was covering his tracks. Eliminating witnesses. Considering he just shot Reine in the head a few seconds before.

[@TreyVaswal]

The company man shot the guard in the head before he could shoot the alien. In the comic, no one shot the man attacked by the alien.

[@Johnnywilsonforever]

the guard hears the alarm and goes running, aiming at the chestburster "please don't move! I might hit it if you don't..." then the other guy comes running screaming "no!" and shoots the guard in the head before he kills the alien, that's when he says the words "Reiner would understand, we need the alien alive".

[@Sonofdonald2024]

Good narration but it doesn't match the comic. The male the alien hatches from drags the doctor onto himself I guess in attempt to take one of them with him. And the guard at the end was going to shoot the alien so the company man shot him to protect it

[@christiannewaye7306]

Two questions for alien theory and fans: -Is it possible to clone an army to fight the aliens like Star Wars -can aliens be detected using thermal , ultraviolet vision like soldiers do in Star Wars ( Boba Fett, storm troopers , and etc ), Mass Effect ( alliance soldiers, Cerberus, and etc) , or Fallout ( Enclave and Brotherhood of steel) -does the lack of plasma weapons like blasters , lasers , and etc that exist in other franchises that I mentioned above that can easily kill the alien?

[@lordfrostwind3151]

I know that they don't show up on infrared, they were able to ambush the Marines in Aliens with that trick. Though the AvP show that there is a visual spectrum that makes the Xenos stick out like a sore thumb. The marines do have heavier weaponry available to them but don't use it often, probably due to high collateral damage, or more likely the authors haven't remembered Hudson's lines in the deleted scenes of Aliens. I'm not sure about clones, might be a bad idea considering what Xenos do with prisoners, but you could mass produce combat androids then you have all the benefits without the problem of casualties becoming new hosts/baby mamas.

[@jimogrady1651]

Avp the predator needed more than infer red to see the aliens

[@Ag3nt0fCha0s]

Why combat droids? Simple robots with acid resistant plates (would the weight of armour be worth armouring them?) and either simple programming or a simple datalink to a simple digital overmind seem optimal to me.
