      In 1986, James Cameron's Aliens brought to theatres the horrors of a new kind of war against a terrifying enemy. Two years later, Dark Horse Comics released a direct follow-up to the events in the film. Years before any talk of a third Alien film, the comics series took fandom by storm, selling hundreds of thousands of copies. Thirty years later, Dark Horse is still a valued partner of 20th Century Fox and joins them in celebrating the anniversary of Aliens with the release of this oversize collection of the original comics series.

    • V první knize sbírky kompletující komiksové příběhy s nelítostnými lovci z vesmíru, se podíváte jak do amazonské džungle, tak na ruské ledové pláně, navštívíte jak domorodé kmeny, tak mocné drogové barony. Na více než 400 stranách zavítáte jak do epochy samurajů, tak do éry kolonizace i zákopů první světové války… a dostanete se i na další místa, na kterých se země zbarví krví. A je jedno, jestli je ta země pokrytá trávou nebo sněhem. Tak šťastnou cestu… a pozor na hlavu. Lovci z jiného světa, přitahovaní teplem a násilím. Predátoři. Jsou nám fyzicky nadřazení, vybaveni smrtící mimozemskou technologií a navíc se dokáží udělat téměř neviditelnými. Po celou dobu lidské historie využívali Zemi jako svou soukromou loveckou oboru. Zjevovali se na bojištích a na gangy ovládaných ulicích, ne proto, aby si nás podmanili nebo aby nám pomohli v boji se zlem, ale jen aby získali své děsivé trofeje. Jejich kořistí totiž nejsou lvi nebo sloni, ale ta nejnebezpečnější lovná zvěř ze všech – člověk. Americké nakladatelství Dark Horse se odvážně pustilo do rozšiřování filmové legendy. Úspěšně nastartovalo komiksovou řadu, která vycházela z ducha a událostí původního filmu – a udělalo to tak dobře, že mnoho věcí z komiksu se zařadilo do predátorské mytologie a překonalo nepříliš slavné filmové pokračování.
