We've actually got a thread going about Fire and Stone in the Literature board: http://www.avpgalaxy.net/forum/index.php?topic=49244.1260
I just finished reading the completed Dark Horse Fire and Stone saga. It was really cool for me. I enjoyed a lot. Ahab Predator has became one of my favorite Preds. Share your thoughts.
As for the extra content - I'm curious. I doubt it'll be the "older" versions of the story. I'm thinking TheBatman will be correct here with the sketches and etc. But I'll happily be wrong. W
So I ordered the hardback so I could see what's in it and have it all collected. I'm starting to dislike buying singles. Just from a storage POV.
We just finished our podcast for the Fire and Stone series earlier this week. Reviewing the audio at the minute. I'm still struggling to write my reviews too.
I have yet to read any of the four series so this is great news for me. I will definitely be picking this up.
I like how they were originally going to show the evolution of the Deacon into the traditional Xeno.
I saw some of the ideas which they had, especially for Elden in the Prometheus TPB.
Apparently, he was going to be a Sil like creature. Even going as far as to switching genders, being labled as Eldena, and was depicted being pregnant in female form... pregnant with facehuggers, which would've birthed "artificial' aliens.
By "lost" issues, are we talking about Fire and Stone as it was originally intended before Fox's mandate of the changes?

I'm very interested to see the 80 pages of extras! I hope some of it is the original, pre-restart "lost issues."

Also, ugh, that alienfilmspedia misspells Acheron.
That's what it seems like: http://www.alienexperience.com/forum/index.php?topic=7203.0
I wonder what wikis he was referring to there. This is the earliest use I could find: http://alienfilmspedia.wikia.com/wiki/Archeron_(LV-426)?action=history
