Aliens Vs. Avengers

What happens when the perfect organism meets a planet of superhumans?

From legendary creators Jonathan Hickman and Esad Ribic—the acclaimed duo behind the best-selling Secret Wars—comes the crossover decades in the making.

In a future Earth ravaged by terror, the Xenomorphs have conquered humanity, leaving only a handful of aging Avengers to mount one final stand. The last city on Earth—Chicago, fortified by Weyland-Stark Corporation—stands as humanity's final refuge. But this isn't just a battle against Xenomorphs. The Engineers, the ancient gods who created both the aliens and humanity itself, have arrived to destroy what they made.

THE UNIVERSE'S DEADLIEST HUNTERS MEET EARTH'S MIGHTIEST HEROES IN THEIR DARKEST HOUR.

This is Hickman's signature epic storytelling paired with Ribic's stunning painted artwork—a bleak, haunting story where heroes fall, and what comes after is survival at any cost. What catastrophic events led to the fall of humanity and forced the Avengers to abandon their home planet? Which heroes will be first to fall, and which will be forever changed by the encounter with the Xenomorphs? Discover the answers as Hickman and Ribić weave a pulse-pounding saga where every choice could make the difference between survival or extinction. Perfect for readers who love dark alternate futures, fans of both the Alien and Marvel universes, and anyone ready for a crossover where anything can happen.

Croatian artist Esad Ribić broke into the U.S. comic industry with Four Horsemen with writer Rob Rodi. His classic European-influenced artistic style garnered attention from Marvel Comics, leading to a career-making series of painted covers for Wolverine and Kingpin.
