Fiorina 161 and Cpl Hicks


So according to Aliens - Colonial Marines, which is canon by the way-despite the reception of the game, Hicks never died in Alien 3, and all those emotional feelings twisted up in a weird way in the opening theme while showing us flashes of the Sulaco on fire, the Alien egg, EEV's being evacuated, etc, are slightly misplaced.

Though with Newt dead--after all Ripley went through to get her at the end of Aliens just weeks earlier in the film setting, is by far the most tragic.

How could he possibly be alive? There's a shot in Alien 3 where we see his mangled corpse and his face is all fucked up. His jaw is detached and his face is smashed in.

He got switched with another soldier after the events of the film. This page should answer your questions.
