Brain Dead Launches Limited-Edition 'Aliens' Capsule Collection
Featuring graphics sourced directly from founder Kyle Ng’s personal collection of the ‘Aliens’ comic books.
Brain Dead has teamed up with Disney Consumer Products and 20th Century Studios to release a limited capsule collection inspired by the legendary Aliens series from Dark Horse Comics.
The collection includes a black 6-panel hat, two graphic tees and a black hoodie, and features graphics and references from the comic books. Brain Dead founder Kyle Ng, a lifelong fan of the Alien franchise, utilized his personal collection of the original comic book editions for the release; the graphics were hand-selected and scanned from the extensive selection. Ng’s early years spent frequenting comic book stores in Los Angeles heavily influenced his creative world, making this project a full-circle tribute.
“The boldness and ingenuity of the Alien franchise has always challenged the norm — something that deeply aligns with Brain Dead’s creative lens,” said Bobby Kim, VP of Creative Design at Disney Consumer Products. “It’s exciting to see Alien come to life for the modern consumer in a new way, with offerings that both the lifestyle shopper and fans will love.”
To celebrate the launch, Brain Dead Studios Fairfax will host an Alien takeover on August 9th and 10th. The event will feature a 7-film marathon on the first day, followed by screenings of Alien and Aliens on the second.
