Marvel to give Aliens the What If…? treatment with Paul Reiser

December 27, 2023 by Gary Collinson

For the very first time since its introduction in back in 1977, Marvel Comics’ What If…? is set to venture beyond the realm of the Marvel Universe in March with the release of Aliens: What If…? #1, a one-shot that promises to answer the question ‘What If… Carter Burke Had Lived?’ and is co-written by the man himself, Paul Reiser. Here’s the official synopsis and cover artwork…

For years, fans of James Cameron’s legendary Aliens questioned whether Carter Burke, a company man more hateable than the Xenos themselves, had actually survived the traumatic events on the terraforming colony Hadley’s Hope. Now the actor behind the beloved villain, Paul Reiser, joins his son Leon and the star-studded team of writers and producers Adam F. Goldberg, Brian Volk-Weiss and Hans Rodionoff for a journey back to Hadley’s Hope and the twisted escape of a man who should have died.

Aliens: What If…? #1 will go on sale in March 2024.
