Instead of a graphic novel, Aliens: Tribes is a graphic story album, with a full-length written story accompanied by full page art spreads rather than panel-by-panel moments of dialogue and action. Written by the esteemed Steve Bissette and painted (yes, painted) by the iconic horror artist Dave Dorman, Aliens: Tribes is a masterfully made piece of illustrated literature that showcases the sheer nightmarish hell that ensues when Xenomorphs and humanity cross paths.

Another notable aspect of this work, is that readers get a written glimpse into the hive-mind of the horrid Xenomorphs, in how their Queen rules them, how her children revere her, and how they all view humans - or "soft ones" as they would term them.
