The Man of Steel Meets the Xenomorph: Superman/Aliens - Explained

In 1995, DC and Dark Horse Comics teamed together to create the crossover SUPERMAN/ALIENS. In calling back to previous Superman arcs such as "The Supergirl Saga" and "Superman in Exile," this new story found a unique challenge for the Man of Steel as he encountered the deadly Xenomorph species.

His underwear is the most powerful thing in the whole universe, never ripped off, never had a single tear!

The graphic novel version is the book that my dad got at Christmas time just before he died. After he died the book disappeared, I was glad to see this site's version of it. This version took me back. I wish he were here to see this site's version.

Superman trying to reason with a xenomorph is hilarious and so within character.

[joshshields]

Ah! The 90's. When every comic book had to have a character with a mullet. Even Superman.

Really nice of the alien to wait for Lois' turn to end before going over to the ship

[mr.slappii]

The idea of a Xenomorph with superman DNA terrifies me.

[jkali]

Legit dude you are better then some of the narrators on audible 🤙🏽 appreciate the content

[MrChristian]

Great reading "Alien Theory" dude! You made it sound really creepy, especially with the music. I remember reading this comic book in the bookstore a long time ago. I always thought that it was cool to see Superman fighting against the soldier aliens and using use dwindling powers. This made his limitations more interesting when fighting the monsters.

[jonmurphy]

Well now you have to do the ultimate classic Batman vs Predator!!!

[fernandosalvador]

It's so cute that superman still tries the diplomatic way, even with a xenomorph.

[The_Farlander]

what a fucking story. wasn't over the top or corny at all, fell right in line with a mainstream comic. I'm thoroughly impressed, still had me biting my nails even while knowing that superman is gonna survive.

[gerritvb]

We gonna ignore the fact that Supes never went to check if Kara had somehow survived, or at least tried to track down her body?

[Soulpuppet]

That was good! I hope you read part 2 and all the others! This was amazing thank you.

[pizzacough]

Even reading the female parts, his narration is legit and keeps my attention. Great voice for this type of content. Kudos.

[jimbeauxdin]

I remember reading this off the shelf. It was one of my favorites. The storyline came back to me many times over the years.

[TheBermudaMan]

22:25 Oh, come on! Superman's such a wholesome boy scout that not even a xenomorph could make him say "hell!"

[audioel]

Since the xenomorphs pick up some of the hosts' genetics, I was fully expecting xenomorphs with kryptonian powers under earth's yellow sun. ;)

[bubblybubblegum]

Que me screaming at Superman to "Just kill the damn BUG!" through the story.
But I completely understand, this story was pretty cool

[steppingstonemediagroupllc]

I've just discovered this Vlog, and have yet to view it, but right off the bat I know it will be good... my popcorn is ready!

Plot twist: the chestburster Superman coughed up? It didn't die. Being spawned from a Kryptonian, the new Queen was also able to absorb the Sun's power. She rapidly grew, developing super strength and speed, x-ray and laser-vision, and worst of all: the ability to fly, even through hard vacuum. The queen still could not match Superman's power, but eventually her new brood of Kryptomorphs would. With that, she turned her hungry eyeless gaze towards Earth...
