<p><i><b>Alien Worlds</b></i> is an American <a href="Science_fiction_comics" title="Science fiction comics">science fiction</a> <a href="Comics_anthology" title="Comics anthology">anthology</a> comic that was published by <a href="Pacific_Comics" title="Pacific Comics">Pacific Comics</a> and then <a href="Eclipse_Comics" title="Eclipse Comics">Eclipse Comics</a> between 1982 and 1985. It was edited by <a href="Bruce_Jones_(comics)" title="Bruce Jones (comics)">Bruce Jones</a> and his partner April Campbell.<sup id="cite_ref-BC_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-BC-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It was a sister title to Jones' horror anthology <i><a href="Twisted_Tales" title="Twisted Tales">Twisted Tales</a></i>.

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Publication_history">Publication history</h2></div>

<p><i>Alien Worlds</i> was published on a bi-monthly schedule by <a href="Pacific_Comics" title="Pacific Comics">Pacific Comics</a> from December 1982 to April 1984 for eight issues, with a single issue of spin-off <i>Three Dimensional Alien Worlds</i> published in July 1984. After Pacific went bankrupt, two final issues were published by <a href="Eclipse_Comics" title="Eclipse Comics">Eclipse Comics</a> in November 1984 and January 1985.<sup id="cite_ref-AH064NF_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-AH064NF-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Eclipse considered continuing the title but instead opted to create <i><a href="Alien_Encounters_(comics)" title="Alien Encounters (comics)">Alien Encounters</a></i> with a variety of writers.<sup id="cite_ref-AH066NF_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-AH066NF-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Instead Jones took <i>Alien Worlds</i> to <a href="Blackthorne_Publishing" title="Blackthorne Publishing">Blackthorne Publishing</a>, who produced a <a href="One-shot_(comics)" title="One-shot (comics)">one-shot</a> featuring reprints of stories taken from earlier issues. In 1987 Eclipse struck a deal with Jones & Campbell's new packaging operation Bruce Jones Associates for new prestige format bi-annual versions of <i>Alien World</i>, cancelling <i>Alien Encounters</i> to make room. Only a single issue of the new format was produced.<sup id="cite_ref-AH123NL_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-AH123NL-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>Following Eclipse's bankruptcy in 1995, the company's assets were purchased by <a href="Todd_McFarlane" title="Todd McFarlane">Todd McFarlane</a>. Believing that the deal included the names of the Jones/Campbell anthologies, he teased a series called <i>Todd McFarlane's Alien Worlds</i> in the 1998 <a href="One-shot_(comics)" title="One-shot (comics)">one-shot</a> <i>Total Eclipse</i>, but the comic would never appear.

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Content">Content</h2></div>

<p>Nearly all of the stories in <i>Alien Worlds</i> were written by Jones, with only a few exceptions (notably <a href="Jan_Strnad" title="Jan Strnad">Jan Strnad</a>'s "Stoney End" in issue #8 and <a href="Frank_Brunner" title="Frank Brunner">Frank Brunner</a>'s "The Reading!" in issue #9). For the most part <i>Alien Worlds</i> avoided the more intensely gruesome subject matter of <i>Twisted Tales</i>, which was being published at the same time,<sup id="cite_ref-BC_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-BC-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> though part of Eclipse's reason for starting <i>Alien Encounters</i> was to cut down on the amount of sexual content.<sup id="cite_ref-AH064NF_2-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-AH064NF-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Among the cover artists for the series were <a href="John_Bolton_(comics)" class="mw-redirect" title="John Bolton (comics)">John Bolton</a>, <a href="Dave_Stevens" title="Dave Stevens">Dave Stevens</a>, <a href="Frank_Brunner" title="Frank Brunner">Frank Brunner</a>, <a href="William_Stout" title="William Stout">William Stout</a>, and <a href="Joe_Chiodo" title="Joe Chiodo">Joe Chiodo</a>.
