The Story

It's World War II, and Hydra is hunting for a new weapon to win the war. The Red Skull sends Baron Strucker into the Himalayas to find the fabled city of Attilan and the Inhumans hidden within it. Instead, Strucker uncovers something far more deadly: Xenomorphs. As Captain America and Bucky Barnes lead the Howling Commandos behind enemy lines to stop Hydra from weaponizing the Alien threat, an unexpected extraterrestrial ally steps in, and the buried history between two alien races comes to light.

Why Collectors Are Adding This One

This is Marvel's WWII-set entry in its ongoing Alien crossover line (following Predator vs. Spider-Man, running alongside Predator Kills the Marvel Universe), set apart from 616 continuity in its own designated universe, Earth-26137. The combination of Cap's Howling Commandos, Xenomorph body horror, and a Captain Marvel appearance makes this an easy sell to both Marvel loyalists and horror-leaning readers who don't normally buy superhero books.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this connected to Marvel's main continuity?

Do I need to have read other Alien vs. Marvel crossovers first?
No. This is a self-contained 4-issue story with its own beginning, middle, and end.
