We have just uploaded the 143rd episode of the Alien vs. Predator Galaxy Podcast (right-click and save as to download)! We’d like to wish everyone out there a happy Alien Day! And as you should all expect by now, since it’s Alien Day we set out to bother someone of significance to Alien franchise to chat to for all your listening pleasure!
For 2022 we were able to track down none other than the Architect of the Apocalypse himself, the writer of numerous Alien and Predator comics including the fan favourite Aliens: Apocalypse – The Destroying Angels, Mr Mark Schultz to talk about his massive career writing for Aliens and Predator.
We discuss Mark’s experience writing for both Alien and Predator, Lovecraft in Alien, how he feels about Prometheus, plenty about Destroying Angels, crossovers with DC and plenty more!
During the interview, I accidentally say Batman/Superman vs Aliens/Predator references Arcturus being the Alien homeworld. I meant to say it references that location as the Predator homeworld.
