Aliens: Genocide #1 (Dark Horse Comics, 1991)—where xenomorphs throw a civil war, humans play exterminator, and the body count’s higher than a Weyland-Yutani expense report! Launched November ’91, this four-issue gore-fest from John Arcudi, Damon Willis, and Karl Story pits black Aliens against red Aliens in a turf war so messy it’s like West Side Story with acid blood. Enter Doctor Paul Church and his ragtag marines, hired to nab some royal jelly—because nothing says ‘promotion’ like harvesting goo from a hive of angry xenos. Dave Dorman’s cover is a drool-worthy nightmare, dripping with ‘90s Dark Horse swagger. This ain’t just a comic—it’s a sci-fi slaughterhouse where the only survivors are the ones holding the flamethrower!
Current Value: As of March 29, 2025, this bad boy’s skittering at $5-$10 raw in Very Fine or better—cheap enough to grab without selling your pulse rifle. Graded CGC 9.8? You’re looking at $30-$50, thanks to that classic Dorman art and nostalgia for Dark Horse’s Alien golden age. It’s the kickoff to a cult-fave mini-series, and collectors are sniffing it out like a facehugger on a bad date.
Expected Value Trends: Stay frosty, because this one’s got sneaky upside—like a xenomorph hiding in the vents. With Marvel’s Alien/Predator push (Predator vs. Spider-Man drops April ’25) and Alien: Romulus still echoing, these Dark Horse classics are riding a retro wave. Short-term, raw copies could hit $12-$18 if the crossover hype spills over. Long-term? If Alien: Earth (the TV show slated for later ’25) or an AvP reboot rumor heats up, a 9.8 might claw to $60-$80 by 2026. It’s a sleeper pick with a sting—perfect for speculators who like their comics bloody.
Upcoming Events: April 23, 2025, brings Predator vs. Spider-Man #1—if that Marvel mashup reignites franchise fever, this Dark Horse gem could see a bump. Alien: Earth later this year might also spark a rush on early Alien tales, and San Diego Comic-Con (July ’25) could fuel the fire—dealers love flexing these ‘90s beauties, and bidders love overpaying for nostalgia.
So, grab Aliens: Genocide #1 now—it’s the comic where Aliens fight Aliens, humans fight Aliens, and your wallet fights to keep up. Bag it, board it, and flex it like you just torched a hive. In this genocide, the only thing dying is your excuse not to own it!
