1st & 3rd books I didn't enjoy...2nd because of the human controlled aliens, but the rest was ok.

*fixed quotes. Cpl Hicks.

Definition of "despise" and "entire" may vary.

I wouldn't go as far as despise, but I've long said I find the lauded first two comics to be massively overrated. They're really nothing special to me.

Nostromo

Ah yes, those were the exact words I was looking for. Massively Overrated. :)

Dark Horse Solicits for February have Vol 2 of the original comics series hardcover listed.

The book is 224 pages. Vol 1 was 184 and that included the six issues of the original series and the the short story called Lucky, so effectively 7 issues of comics plus other extras.   It also never listed Lucky in the solicit for Vol one.

There is still hope that Countdown could be be included in the new Vol with the 40 page higher page count.

HuDaFuK

I think the Aliens magazine reprint of Countdown came out to about 18 pages in total, so there would be room.

Whiskeybrewer

 Four Issues for Vol 2, Four for Earth War, How ever much for Countdown, How ever much for The Alien and then extra's.

It could fit :)

The book is up for pre-order on amazon now.
