Warning: Contains SPOILERS for Aliens: Paradiso #1!Alien fans are about to get an all-new comic book series to sink their teeth into, one that promises to be a major departure for the franchise because of something seemingly innocuous on the surface, but pretty significant: the setting.

But this is new Alien comic gives the franchise a softer Sci-fi tone with its new setting – and it's going to be great to see. Xenomorphs break it up.

Alien New Planet redefines the nature of humanity's interplanetary expansion
People seem to be more “spacefaring” than ever before Alien Canon
In almost every one Alien story, space travel is almost exclusively possible through Weyland-Yutani or the United Systems Government. WY sends people into space for reasons that benefit the company and (allegedly) all of humanity, including off-world mining operations and colonized settlements as part of the company's “Building Better Worlds” campaign. The United Systems Government controls the military and police and funds special charter settlements for certain religious organizations.
In other words, the world Alien not like Star Wars. People don't just get into their spaceships and fly through space whenever they want. At least not usually. And that's why Alien: Heaven is very interesting because it introduces fans to a whole new subsection of humanity, complete with its own space travel methods and home worlds beyond the control of the Weyland-Yutani and United Systems Government: organized crime. Planet-hopping crime syndicates, space-traveling pirates and all manner of evil and mischief in the galaxy will be explored in this new film. Alien series, this is an incredibly exciting prospect.
Alien: Paradiso explores what other aliens only touch
The idea of space pirates was explored in 1997 Alien: Resurrection
A galactic criminal organization that thrives in the interplanetary landscape of humanity's existence is a given, as it is on Earth. Where there are people, there is crime, and there are those who get filthy rich by organizing that crime. Nevertheless, Alien fans didn't really see it coming except once. Alien: Resurrection introduced the crew of the Betty, space pirates who hijack a colonist ship and kidnap humans to sell to a group of military scientists experimenting on Xenomorphs. This is absolutely fascinating and worth expanding on. And now, Alien that's exactly what fans get.
There are more questions than answers when it comes to this upcoming one, though Alien from the cover of the series and the synopsis alone, it's clear that it's going to be as unique as it is interesting. Fans get full access to the underworld Alien witnessing the universe and just in time Xenomorphs break up
