Newt's Tale is a two-issue comic book based on the film Aliens published by Dark Horse Comics from June-July 1992. While largely an adaptation of the movie entirely from the perspective of Newt, it also features numerous scenes not included in the film, including a lengthy section set during the initial stages of the Xenomorph infestation at Hadley's Hope, before the Colonial Marines arrive. The comic was written by Mike Richardson, based on James Cameron's screenplay, and was drawn by Jim Somerville, inked by Brian Garvey and colored by Gregory Wright, with painted covers by John Bolton. The series was edited by Randy Stradley. The series has never been collected or reprinted, save for a single reprint in Trade Paperback for the United Kingdom in 1994 by Titan Books Ltd.
