Those comics were fucking rad. The second series in particular with the airbrushed art was my jam. It was like Heavy Metal featuring Aliens. Having reread them recently I found the story a little more hit and miss than I remember but the general plot points were still way better than what the actual studio did because they were just straight sequels that followed to logic of the films, continued Hicks and Newt's story, and got the Aliens on earth which the movies never wanted to actually do for some reason. I'm glad they were able to rerelease the original versions without all those stupid edits where Newt and Hicks couldn't be called Newt and Hicks because of copyright bullshit.

And the ant comparison makes perfect sense if you've ever had ants in your house. Those little shits are relentless, methodical and indifferent in the face of death. If they were human-sized they would absolutely wreck our shit
