Following on from 2019's adaptation of William Gibson's second draft of Alien 3, Dark Horse has just announced (via The Hollywood Reporter) that 2020 will see them adapting another unused Alien film script. However, it's not going to be tackling another Alien 3 (sorry folk, no visualize of Eric Red's take), Dark Horse are turning their sights ... [Read More]
Published at the end of October 2019, Alien: Prototype is Titan Books 8th original Alien novel, and their most recent original story since the phenomenal The Cold Forge in April of 2018. Prior to Prototype’s release, Titan also published an adaptation of Creative Assembly’s Alien: Isolation in July which I wasn’t too fond of.
Unlike a lot of the more recently ... [Read More]

For those of our visitors who haven't read my previous reviews, or listened to our podcasts on the previous entries, I'm really fond of the Predator: Hunters comic series.

As one of many fantastic ways in which the 40th anniversary of Alien has been celebrated this year Titan Books published "The Making of Alien", a fantastic deep dive into the journey that eventually brought Alien to the big screen. I loved it.
Much to my delight, J.W Rinzler is returning to bring that same behind-the-scenes thoroughness to the story ... [Read More]
When Alien: Isolation was first announced at the start of 2014 I think it would be fair to say that Alien fans who enjoyed their video games were in a bit of a bad mood. Alien: Crucible had been cancelled and Aliens: Colonial Marines was a bitter disappointment, and an absolute travesty.
I was certainly dubious about Alien: Isolation. Amanda Ripley ... [Read More]
Following on from his work on The Predator: Hunters and Hunted, the prequel novel to The Predator which I think was far superior to the film, James A. Moore is returning to the world of Predator to help set the stage for Illfonic's Predator: Hunting Grounds!

One of the things I really love about the Alien and Predator films is that I always seem to be learning about new aspects of their production or their legacy. But yet, when I see news of a new behind-the-scenes book or documentary the first thing I always wonder is – “what is this going to tell me new?” or “what is this ... [Read More]
While Aliens and Predators clashed in the recent Fire and Stone, and Life and Death crossovers, it's been sometime since we had an AvP series that wasn't attached to an event. Now, following the cancellation of Aliens: Colonial Marines - Rising Threat, Dark Horse Comics has announced a new Alien vs. Predator series!
Alien vs. Predator: Thicker Than ... [Read More]
