This ground-breaking 1979 comic adaptation by writer Archie Goodwin and artist Walt Simonson was the first graphic novel movie adaptation.
Yes, there were comic books (and you've seen a number of them on this blog), but this was a trade paperback of all-new material!
Officially called Heavy Metal presents ALIEN: the Illustrated Story, and produced as a trade paperback sold in bookstores, it was a major hit for the infant Heavy Metal publishing group spun off from National Lampoon.
There's a new edition of this long-out-of-print graphic novel, scanned and mastered directly from the original art still in Walt Simonson's possession, coming out on May 28th!
You can pre-order it from Amazon in either Deluxe HardCover or Trade Paperback format.
