Aliens: Dead Orbit is a four-issue limited comic book series that was first published by Dark Horse Comics from April-December 2017, with the first issue being released as part of Alien Day. It was also published simultaneously in the digital format via Dark Horse Digital. The story was written, illustrated, colored and lettered by James Stokoe, and edited by Daniel Chabon and Rachel Roberts, with cover art by Stokoe. Geof Darrow and Rafael Albuquerque also provided variant covers for the first issue.
Aliens: Dead Orbit takes place in 2295 CE on the Sphacteria, a Weyland-Yutani fuel depot/waystation in a rather forgotten and secluded part of space. The plot pits the crew of the Sphacteria against the deadly Xenomorph species, and much like the doomed crew of the Nostromo, their resources are limited. The story is told in media res; the first and last few pages of the issue take place after the events shown in the middle of the issue.
