Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I kinda feel like the xenomorphs could be not domesticated but maybe appeased for lack of a better word. They don't like being held captive, and they are vindictive as shown by Resurrection. But it also showed them to be intelligent. If you gave them things to eat/implant with eggs enough to satiate them, perhaps they would think of you as a pet and leave you alone.
Ehhh they're an invasive species with a parasitic larval stage, we're fucked. The more we appease the more their numbers grow and the less likely we are to be able to satiate them, much less them and any sizable human population (though there wouldn't be a sizable human population very long).
"One" question (ok one multi-part question), does anyone have data on the life cycle? How long until eggs hatch, how long in larval stage, how long until the little guy that bursts out becomes an H. R. Geiger penis monster, how many eggs can those penis monsters lay per day, and how many calories do they need for their daily intake?
