I'm willing to give the writer another couple arcs. The writing has absolutely been messy but issues 5 and 6 started opening a few potentially interesting doors about where things could go, what with the Prometheus-esque elements coming into play and the "freed" androids – I want to see if maybe he can perhaps do something a bit stronger than his initial six issues in his next arc now that his intro arc is behind him.
But for the love of God, Larroca has to go. There isn't even anything resembling an attempt on Larroca's end.
Defiance also had pretty bad writing (and Brian Wood's a piece of shit person), though Tristan Jones' art on his issues was excellent and some of the best art in an Aliens comic, and Earth War is pretty bland in my opinion.
Alex White is easily the best person writing non-filmed Alien material at the moment, though I'd rather have a new novel from Alex than a comic; a novel suits their writing style better.
