I wish we saw

where Ahab has been staying in the survivors' camp. He must have a trophy room somewhere, so that would have been cool to see.

I liked the little bit of speculation about the Engineers maybe trying to keep us away from the goo because we're too primitive.

I was hoping for more conflict between the Marines and Ahab, maybe a short scuffle that Galgo would have had to break up. Also thought Singer and Melville would be more curious about Ahab, but I suppose the Engineers are the more immediate concern.

Also, what was up with

the urns of goo floating? I know it's supposed to be advanced seeming and mysterious, but it came off weird.

Just got issue 3, thought it was pretty decent. Still not liking the alien designs at all.

Queen and hugger looked okay though. I was surprised by who was hugged.

I was going to explode with anger, but they are kind of creepy lol. Those hands...Still I wish there was a permanent ban on drawing any Alien that doesn't look like the 79 one. Stupid Alien 3 dog alien crap started all this. The fanboy geeks love drawing these different Aliens hihihihi look at my new Alien woooohooo /rant closed lol.

Actually you're wrong on that statement and it did NOT start with the dog alien. We started seeing different hybrids in the comics long before Alien 3 came out. There's the guardian xenos in the Earth War comic & that was from 1990. Alien 3, 1992. I don't agree on the ban of anything that doesn't look like the '79. Yea there's some pretty whacked out looking creations out there I'll admit that but there's definitely some neat ones too. It would get boring to just see the same one over & over. The xenos can't just come out of humans ALL the time, they would have come across many types of species long before contact with humans. The Kenner toyline really started to bring out the different hybrids and it kinda just rolled from there. Just my 2 cents on that.

You remind me of a friend I knew from France. 

I'm glad you looked on the bright side and saw the creepiness of the Alien. Always good to look on the bright side of life.

To be fair, the idea of the Alien looking different depending on its host was technically there from the start - Ridley said several times in interviews about the first movie that it was just the "man-version" of Alien.

You can't compare the so called Dog Alien to the Lender crap and video game and comic book bastardizations of the xenomorph; the Dog Alien (Runner/Dragon) is eccentrically a regular Drone/Warrior with digitrade legs and no dorsal tubes. It has no gimmicks or superficial canine attributes - no ears, whiskers or snout, nothing dog-like when it comes to the cranium or body shape, nothing extra dog-like about the teeth or lips... the only thing slightly mimicking dogs and cats is the structure and design of its feet, but it is very, very subtle.

The Dog Alien is pretty much a regular Xenomorph that is just a slightly more adapted to run on all fours. It's a Quadruped, and that's about it. It shares surprisingly little resemblance with its host.

Kenner xeno's for life.

I fully agree on all accounts.

It really is a great alien design, my favorite after big chap.
