As a media franchise, the film Alien has enjoyed a large and devoted fanbase for over four decades. This new book engages with the franchise in all its forms: not just the original film, but its sequels, prequels, and multimedia offshoots like comic books, audiobooks, action figures and videogames, to offer fresh perspectives on the Alien universe. What is it about Alien that still fascinates audiences, and why does it still matter so many years after its birth?
