I have all the old stuff.  It is stuff I collected when I was growing up, and I grew up when all the individual issues were being released.

On the present runs I wait for the tpbs, so I can buy them all at once, read them, then store them in the collection box. 

Missing the aliens series about the boy and his mom and an infestation, the Gibson Alien 3, and the Ripley and Zulu Hendricks comics.

Its something I wish I'd done growing but never really got into reading comics until recently, I've got the Gibson Alien 3 on pre-order and plan on getting all the omnibus's.

In comparison to the actual films I thought most of the novelizations fell short. ESPECIALLY the Aliens novel which sensors and edits out all of the cussing. Both Alien and Alien 3 novels were semi-descent but the one that surprisingly shines the most from the movie novelizations is Resurrection. The way A.C. Crispin wrote the novel was phenomenal and it even expands on somethings we don't see in the film.

Reading Predator: Forever Midnight. Was surprised I could find the book so easily and cheap.

Finishing up The Little Stranger by Sarah Waters. Creepy. As. Hell. And so so good.

It must have sold poorly. I found a brand new copy about two years ago at MSRP. Right on the shelf.

That's new. So is "Dorian Sudler did nothing wrong" a thing?
