Dark Horse Announces Aliens: Defiance

[Giger Beast]

Thanks for the kind words, guys... let's say I were to hold some of these aside for special folks that can't fly down to Australia for this thing... how many would be interested?

That'd be really sick.

Would be interested.

The poster looks amazing.

Tristan.  How long are you on 'Defiance' ? 

[KiramidHead]

I'll throw my name in the pot as well, that's one cool poster.

Tristan.  How long are you on 'Defiance' ?

As long as you guys have it on your standing orders. I'm taking two issues off so I can catch back up, because I was running behind from a job I was on prior to Defiance, but I'm aiming to stay on as long as possible!

As for everyone interested in the posters... DM me and I'll see what I can sort out!

Anyone have a pic of the "Alien Day" Variant cover to Defiance?

They did one?

From Tristan's Facebook. Looks like an Aurora-class ship from Stargate Atlantis! Love it.

Isn't issue #1 out today?

[426Buddy]

Nice!

Having followed that image through Google, I found this interview with Brian Wood and Tristan Jones that I think is new. It certainly has some work-in-progress art I've never seen before.

EDIT: Would help if I included the link Here: clicky.

I picked up the digital copy and read it just now. This series is off to a great start! I already like the mystery that's being set up, and Tristan's art is fantastic. It's going to be painful waiting a month for the next one!

Hicks, you said you had one nitpick. What was it?

I've never bought an Aliens comic in my life for some reason apart from Dredd Incubus which was great as I enjoy Dredd and Henry Flint draws an awesome Alien.

But I downloaded this today and really enjoyed it. The artwork is fantastic!

Comixolgy have an Alien sale on...any recommendations?

Glad you enjoyed it!

You may want to check out Aliens Book two which has 4 issues, by Mark Verheiden and Denis Beauvais...  That had amazing art and a pretty good story too.  If you want the first part of that, you would want to go with ALIENS: Book One by Mark Verheiden and Mark A. Nelson.  It had 6 issues, plus a short side-bar story from Dark Horse Presents #24.  All of these works are now combined in various volumes.
