Toch is a second-generation survivor, born of a transport crew that crash-landed on a primordial planet. But years of industry have sullied the skies & tainted the rivers. Now he may have discovered a means of saving the planet, but he's also discovered the deadly secrets his transport ship was carrying...and it wasn't diamonds and jewels. With a bunch of Aliens as his travel agents, Toch's trip might be a lot shorter than planned!
"H.R. Giger's horrific conception of the alien struck a vital sensitive spot in the depths of our irrational id with the impact of a sledgehammer. The alien was scary like no monster ever was before or since. Its far-ranging influence can be traced in virtually every monster created since 1979. I know it gave me nightmares. Now, thank goodness, by drawing Aliens: Alchemy, I hope I can work out those cosmic fears. I just hope it doesn't spawn a new round of bad dreams."
"This is a classic Aliens story, with all the elements I love -- suspense, terror, and the struggle for survival," said editor Phil Amara. "Richard Corben is a phenomenal artist who adds a whole new dimension to this spine-tingling tale!"
