Aliens: Colonial Marines--No Man Left Behind

In 2012, Dark Horse Comics released this single-issue Aliens one-shot, written by Joshua Williamson with art by Patric Reynolds. Tying into the Colonial Marines video game, it follows a group of marines on a rescue mission that quickly becomes a desperate fight for survival against the iconic xenomorphs. This grim, self-contained story delivers a tense, action-heavy slice of the Aliens universe, focusing on the brutal cost of a "no man left behind" ethos in deep space.
