Anyone read Dark Horse Presents #146? Picked that one up last year and was pleasantly surprised by the link to the original Aliens vs Predator series.

Defiance #4, Prometheus #2, and Predators vs Judge Dredd vs Aliens #1 are all live for pre-order on TFAW.

He goes batshit crazy and lures Predators into his trap. There's a section on it in my review of AvP Omnibus Volume 1. http://www.avpgalaxy.net/literature/reviews/avp-omnibus-volume-1/

Not to go off topic but speaking of AvP, I've always had the DH classics 6 issue re-run of the series from the late 90's. Only recently have I noticed that the coloring is different in all these pics from AvP in the omnibus and in the original run. Am I crazy or did they actually do a recolor for the classics 90's run? Can anyone confirm that?

It doesn't match the reprint that came with AvP 2010 either, which looks great BTW.


According to xenopedia it was recolored.

For the six-issue re-run, the story was recolored by Chris Chalenor and In-Color and re-edited by David Land. The cover artwork by Michael Dubisch was also created for the release.

i didnt like the coloring in this version much either.  But it must be more consistent that in the original version.

I wish the entire original AvP could receive colouring like that of the 2010 AvP #0 re-release

It really needs to happen! I've been asking for it for 6 years now!
