The Made Equal Saga: Venom x Alien

Venom x Alien: Made Equal is a romance graphic novel published by Marvel Comics in collaboration with Dark Horse Comics. The story is a crossover between Marvel's Venom and the Alien franchise and an inspiration on the Shakespearean tragedy Romeo and Juliet.

Premise
The novel focuses on a male Symbiote and a female Xenomorph starting a star-crossed romantic relationship, which is threatened by a war between its two alien species. They get help from their respective owners and a young human who supports their relationship while also dealing with a corrupt general who seeks to use both races as weapons of mass destruction regardless the collateral damage they can do.

Plot
It all starts with Dr. Jacob Lewis experimenting on a male Symbiote he had discovered and named Mars keeping it as a pet in his home. At the same time elsewhere, Dr. Leah Chang had discovered and adopted an female Xenomorph chestburster (which she named Venus) and is doing the same in her home. Both scientists also happen to be keeping the presence of their pets in secret from the military army's obstructive leader General Carter Talbot, who seeks to use powerful lifeforms as weapons for the army.

A few months later, Mars has evolved to a higher level and developed human intelligence. At the same time, Venus has grown up and is exploring the world outside in secret under Leah's supervision. Suddenly, Mars and Venus cross paths with each other to both Jacob and Leah's concerns until, after some wondering, the two lifeforms begin to bond peacefully much to their owners' amazement.

Meanwhile, the Xenomorph Queen (who has been stranded on Earth since Talbot's mercenaries extracted her from her home planet of Xenomorph Prime) overhears disgusted with the news of the military humans experimenting on her offsprings and exacts to ambush the mercenaries one by one and create new Xenomorphs out of them. In Life Foundation, Dr. Carlton Drake oversees a Symbiote which was extracted from its home planet of Klyntar by rogue astronauts working for the company before leaving. Unknown to him, the Symbiote implanted an offspring within the astronaut who retrieved him and the offspring forces the possessed astronaut into freeing it so that the Symbiote can duplicate itself and possess every Life Foundation employee present.

As they continue socializing further (and with Mars sharing his intellect with Venus), Mars and Venus encounter and befriend Max Olsen, Jacob and Leah's high-school student who shares his teachers' beliefs in alien lifeforms' emotional side. Just then, Jacob and Leah are ambushed and cornered by Talbot's mercenaries, who demand information about the aliens they own, forcing Mars and Venus to take action and kill the mercenaries to protect their owners. Max eventually finds a tape containing footage of Talbot's true plans and his confession of little concern for human casualties (as Talbot is heard believing that death is humans' "occupational hazard").

Just as Max and the doctors set out to take the evidences to the reporters, Mars and Venus have a vision of the Xenomorph Queen and the Master Symbiote planning to start a revolution against humanity (and wage war on each other) and also intend to stop them.
