Alien Legion – Marvel / Epic Comics – 1984–1987 – Volume 1 – #1–20

📘 Series Summary

Alien Legion is a hard-edged military science-fiction series following a band of alien mercenaries operating on the fringes of the vast interstellar Galarchy. Drawn from countless species, cultures, and broken pasts, the Legion fights not for glory or heroism, but for survival, loyalty, and the next contract.

Created by Carl Potts and written primarily by Alan Zelenetz, the series blends brutal combat, political intrigue, and deeply personal character studies. Stories range from large-scale interstellar warfare to intimate examinations of betrayal, duty, and mortality. Known for its willingness to kill major characters and confront the cost of violence, Alien Legion stands as one of Epic Comics’ defining science-fiction titles of the 1980s.

⭐ Why This Series Stands Out

  • Gritty, character-driven military sci-fi with no traditional heroes.
  • Large ensemble cast drawn from dozens of alien species.
  • Unflinching portrayal of combat, sacrifice, and moral ambiguity.
  • Distinctive Epic Comics tone separate from mainstream Marvel continuity.
  • A complete, self-contained run with a definitive final issue.
