“The “Fire and Stone” line will include five books in total, with the fifth still unrevealed. “Prometheus” will be written by Paul Tobin, with art from Juan Ferreyra. “Prometheus” #1 is set for release on Sept. 10, with subsequent series then launching biweekly in this order: “Aliens,” “Alien vs. Predator” and “Predator.”

Comic Book Resources also have the un-coloured interiors by Patrick Reynolds for Aliens and Chris Mooneyham for Predator, making for 12 pages of Aliens/vs/Predator preview goodness. Thanks to Ultramorph for the news.

Shame, this series had so much promise.

Looks like I'll only be picking up Prometheus, if that.

Hello all,

I am a big comic book fan and have read several Aliens comics in the past, but I gave up on them as they tried to be much like the second movie instead of good story telling.
Sadly from that one drawing it seems the new line of Aliens comics are more of that.

Really a shame :(

I have lost all faith in AVP comics. It feels like the mindset is as long as something that looks like an Alien or Predator is shown in a comic, it will pass fan standards. After all, it is only a comic.  ::) Dam shame.

Yeah!

Wtf is with the Aliens.

Someone should tell the writers that even the hardcore devoted fans won't be picking these up until some drastic design changes are made, we don't want stunted shitty Aliens.

Eh, for me, all that matters is that the aliens look biomechanical, and not like some formless oil slick as we've seen so any times.

Also worth pointing out that we don't know for sure that those are regular Xenos. They could be smaller, Deacon-related aliens like what we saw on that Palumbo cover.

I doubt that they would change the designs and size of the Aliens.. But then again, I could be wrong about that since they have changed the artwork on some of the covers. So I suppose it's not outside the realm of possibility in changing the artwork.

Not sure how far they are in the creative process in all of this though.

Look if they lose their main audience they basically have nothing as it's essentially coming in fresh.
Replacing SW.

If the reviews are good I'll get a set but this has turned me off buying them monthly.

I wouldn't say that Alien-Predator is the only thing which is being put out to replace Star Wars. And I doubt that Alien, Predator and Prometheus would be on-going anyways where as Star Wars was on-going (I think even DeConnick said it wasn't going to be on-going).

Dark Horse going to be focusing more on creator owned projects and developing more superhero titles, this is likely to cover the gap which Star Wars is leaving behind.

Juvenile aliens perhaps? Aliens bred from a smaller host species? I mean...let's not assume the worst right off the bat
