Lucky! 

That's awesome though, can't wait until release date, seems like forever.

Very cool, Hicks! Why is Aliens Day still four weeks away?

From Tristan's Twitter today:

It's definitely a talent coming up with new designs that look like they really belong alongside the established technology of a fictional universe.

Where are you guys preordering Defiance from? I live in Dublin so need an Ireland/UK place.

A good old-fashioned comic shop.

Forbidden Planet ain't gonna be cheap is it?

[Whiskeybrewer]

There's an independent one just down the road from me called Proud Lion. That's where mines coming from

[HuDaFuK]

Forbidden Planet ain't gonna be cheap is it?

No idea I'm afraid, this will be the first comic I've ever actually bought

It'll be my first comic too since I was about 10!

[Corporal Hicks]

I shouldn't think it would be any more than the usual price. £3/4 per issue.

Spoiler-free. Rating: 4.5/5.

I had one tiny issue with it which I'll talk about when the comic comes out.

Screen Rant has another variant for issue #1, exclusive to Fried Pie Comics. It is by Sachin Teng.

I mean I like the Sachin Teng variants but I'm just not digging the style as much as the other variants

[Ultramorph]

I like it, but I'm mostly curious if that slightly weird xenomorph is just artistic license or a hint at something that's coming later.
