The Killing Moon
Terror is on ice as Declan Shalvey and Andrea Broccardo relaunch Marvel’s Alien
GROWING UP, DECLAN SHALVEY COULDN’T bring himself to watch the Alien films. But now several decades later, the Irish writer and artist is scripting Marvel’s relaunched Alien series.
“All my friends were huge fans, but I was way too scared to watch them,” he laughs. “It wasn’t until years later that I finally built up the nerve to watch the original classic, and soon afterwards the also-classic sequel, and I very much came to appreciate the mastery of those first two films especially.”
