Alien: The Illustrated Story

Vacant. Two space helmets resting on chairs. Electronic hum. Lights on the helmets begin to signal one another. Moments of silence. A yellow light goes on. Electronic hum. A green light goes on in front of one helmet. Electronic pulsing sounds. A red light goes on in front of the other helmet. An electronic conversation ensues. Reaches a cresendo. Then silence. And when the silence is broken, the crew of the Nostromo must grapple with a terrifying life force they cannot leash, nor even comprehend - the Alien!
