Aliens/Predator Comics Update

[Corporal Hicks]

In the slew of AvP3, Predators and prequel news I opted to let the comic news fall by the wayside until it calmed down. So onto the news:

The first issue of Dark Horse’s new Alien series has been released. We’ll have our review up shortly. Cover art for Aliens #3 and Predator #2 has been released. As well as that the preview for Predator #1 is also online. Be sure to keep an eye on our literature forum for more updates.

[Corporal Hicks]

Dunno yet. Apparently we find out later on in the story.

I looked at a copy of the new Alien series first issue and well I wont be buying it, and I certainly wasn't too keen on the aliens' mandibles either.

That Pred #1 is that an elder, cuz like im confused i know everything alien and pred bla bla bla but wolf he was a cleaner rite he was pretty old so was he an elder? Not that b.s elder of avp 1 but his armor is bad ass wouldnt mind seeing it in the upcoming predators movie.

I think the xeno is the version of an Alien in Dark Horse's Alien: Earth War. This breed was a guard for what is basically a mega-queen alien, the mother of all mothers. Portrayed on this cover by John Bolton:  http://www.atomicavenue.com/atomic/IssueDetail.aspx?ID=227543 This was published before Alien3, so there are continuity errors.

Yeah, it's probably one of those crappy praetorian things in 'Earth War' They didn't actually do much an ordinary Alien couldn't, it's just that they had huge tusks and, I think, they could force open an APC, but that was it. They were anti-climactic, really!

[wmmvrrvrrmm]

it was a normal sized alien
