Overall, I've really hated the model for the new DHP since it's inception a year ago. $7.99 is too much to ask people to pay when you're only giving them 8-9 pages of any given story, and as such, I've not yet started getting the book.
That being said, having preordered all the Aliens issues, and having flipped through today's issue without actually reading it yet, I'm much more excited to read a few of the other things in it than the Aliens tale, which looks to be shit (not judging on the story yet, but Layman and Keith make for a bad combo in this particular fictional universe). But, in the back of the book, there's the first chapters of a new Dean Motter Mister X story and a new Baron & Rude Nexus tale, along with a pit of prose from Harlan Ellison, all of which sound awesome. So, my advice - come for the Aliens, stay for the stuff that's actually worth reading.
