Cyberantics is presented in a hardcover, illustrated children's book format. The project includes specific information that is intrinsically tied to many of the events found in the Aliens: Hive series. The ant featured as the main character of Cyberantics is also a character in Aliens: Hive. The two stories interrelate, and by reading both Cyberantics and Aliens: Hive the reader's understanding of the concepts in both stories is deepened. However, both this book and the comic series can be read and enjoyed on their own.
Cyberantics features comments on the text, a biography of the "author" (another character in Hive). and an ersatz bibliography. Written by Stanislaw Mayakovsky (AKA Jerry Prosser) and illustrated by Rick Geary.

In return for the aid of the Colonial Marines, Beliveau leads Henry to an Alphatech storage facility piled high with state-of-the-art weapons designed to "eliminate" Aliens.

Aliens may be virtually impossible to control, but what if man could anticipate their actions? In a deep space research station, Dr. Paul Church studies Alien behavioral responses. How does an Alien track its prey? Can an Alien distinguish whether a human is armed? Will an Alien ever retreat from an attack? Test after test, patterns of behavior are revealed to Church... patterns which are predictable.
The station is carefully supervised; every precaution is taken, but everyone knows the risks. When an apparent saboteur is killed by an escaped Alien, the site of scientific research gives way to a homicide investigation. Col. Dr. Anthony Crespi, the stalwart survivor of Aliens: Backsplash (featured in Dark Horse Comics #12 and 13), suspects that the Alien subject may not have escaped on its own, and is determined to uncover the truth.
