Since it cauterizes as it cuts, would it prevent being splattered with acid blood?Dylanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12662279076145255739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730409500376659257.post-36506147322904403262016-01-06T14:12:20.755-05:002016-01-06T14:12:20.755-05:00With corporate logic like that, it's no wonder... With corporate logic like that, it's no wonder it took 20th Century Fox so long to produce the feature film version of AvP (circa 15 years after Dark Horse had done the first successful comic book mini-series with that theme)!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730409500376659257.post-53727951567312907532016-01-06T11:33:37.282-05:002016-01-06T11:33:37.282-05:00My guess is that part of the licensing deal was no...My guess is that part of the licensing deal was no crossovers.Rosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02456766784122686858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730409500376659257.post-17645188046875383002016-01-06T11:29:54.628-05:002016-01-06T11:29:54.628-05:00Couldn't have said it better myself, Mike.Couldn't have said it better myself, Mike.Carycomichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16657443977195909129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730409500376659257.post-72431181907421832292016-01-06T10:38:00.924-05:002016-01-06T10:38:00.924-05:00I find it amazing that Dark Horse comics had the S...I find it amazing that Dark Horse comics had the Star Wars license for 20+ years and never did a Star Wars/Aliens (or Star Wars/Predator) comic.BigMike20X6https://www.blogger.com/profile/08902349242380086728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730409500376659257.post-83084976592327883192016-01-06T10:17:32.402-05:002016-01-06T10:17:32.402-05:00Just a few points:

Because, Abrams went a little _too_ far turning the Klingons into lobster-red rip-offs of the space lizards from V:TOS!<br /><br />2) But, I'm willing to concede that he learned from that mistake by the time he started working on SW:TFA. Because, it makes a fiendish kind of militaristic sense that someone who feels he's more threatening than Palpatine, simply from having a bigger hologram, would also strive to create a bigger Death Star using a whole planet!<br /><br />3) As for this cover? Brilliant-as-usual-job, Ross! :-) Which is why I'm constantly baffled as to why Dark Horse never did a crossover like this when all three properties were still licensed to them.

He took a familiar story and subverted it in interesting and fun ways. It didn't feel like a copy to me, more an homage that had a ton of originality built in. <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13893839898169254788noreply@blogger.com
