Dark Horse Announces Aliens: Defiance

[Corporal Hicks]

Sa-weet! I hope we've got some cool behind-the-scenes material in there too!

Anyone picking this up ?

[Corporal Hicks]

I imagine I will but it's a good few months off.

[Russ840]

Im in two minds.

If the bonus content is generous then I'll be persuaded.

I live the first half. So much. Mostly due to Tristan's art, but also because the story was really tight.

It just looses me a little for the second half.

Having oversized Tristan art is a real attraction for this collection though.

There was too much padding and contrived stuff in the 2nd half.. all those dream sequences didn't help.
(the queen growing to full size as if by magic also... wasn't good).

Defiance was a series that felt like it was one issue too long.

All in all, a bit of a mess but i don't hate it...
the ending was appropriately dark, even "X-Files" ish in tone.
And I do like Zula as a lead.

That reminds me, I received my "artist proof" prints off Tristan. Can't wait to get mine framed and give Shevvie his! 

[Russ840]

Post them up mate.

I did email him about them but he never got back to me.

[Corporal Hicks]

He had them up for sale mate. I'm sure we'd posted about it in here too.

[Russ840]

I must have missed it. Last I remember, he said, on here, to email him.

Damn it lol.

[Corporal Hicks]

He's still got some available: https://tyrannojones.bigcartel.com/products

Damn it lol.

[Russ840]
