William Gibson's Alien 3

[Russ840]

Absolutely

[Corporal Hicks]

I know, right?  It's like William Gibson had a crystal ball or something.

I'm disappointed I never got to ask about this. 

Did you interview Gibson?

I was talking more about not asking Scott that in the junket or Greene and Harper not returning my messages (despite Harper initially agreeing to come on the podcast). I've messaged Gibson a few times over the years but he's never bit. Johnny has agreed to join me after the series comes out though. 

[Local Trouble]

Will you be taking suggested questions for that one? 

[Corporal Hicks]

For Johnny's? Sure. Always try to mate.

[Stitch]

For Johnny's? Sure. Always try to mate.

Aren't johnnies supposed to impede mating? *b'dum-tsh!*


I'll see myself out.

[Local Trouble]

For Johnny's? Sure. Always try to mate.

I forecast grouchy questions regarding liberties taken with his adaptation of the scripts.

Cover for issue 2's up on the Dark Horse site.

The synopsis makes for interesting reading:

With the Sulaco containing more than meets the eye, the U.P.P. team looks to find out what happened to Ripley, Bishop, and company. At the same time, the group on the Rodina have discovered that one of their own--Kurtz--may be infected on Anchorpoint, and uses the captured Bishop as a ransoming piece for Kurtz's return, who the Rodina crew view as a potential weapon.

Evidently the plot is going to be expanded from either of the film drafts.

pre-ordered both covers of issue 2!!! CANNOT WAIT TO READ THESE THINGS

[skull-splitter]

I'll wait for the TPD for practical reasons.

[The Old One]

As will I.

[DorkiDori]

I always upgrade to the trade these days but I buy the singles to help support the run and then give them away. As I understand singles are more important to the sales so I want to help support the series.

[skull-splitter]

In the Netherlands, reliable distribution is severly limited.

[HuDaFuK]

I really need to go find somewhere I can get this pre-ordered. Sadly the only local comic shop I know are a bunch of useless f*ckwits.

[Whiskeybrewer]

need to remember to pre-order the series tomorrow
