Great shipper ... The shipper sent, and I recieved within two days (which considering that I requested standard shipping is pretty impressive.) As for the book its self... Its not as good as the first volume but not bad either. I m giving the book 4 stars, and the shipper I would give 5.
Deadliest of the Species This was the first ALIEN or PREDATOR comic i ever read, when it was first released. If i recall it came out in six issues. thats six months of waiting. and at the time, though i loved the story(Its so much more complex than either of the Franchises movies) I had a hard time following it. now being older and more mature, being able to read the entire story again was great. Because of this, storyline, i immediatlly sought out other predator and alien comics.. and now i cant wait to be re-introduced to the worlds through the omnibuses!
Better then tha AVP movie!! Nothing against the movie, but the comics are way better!! For the price of the comics individually, this is a great buy! I always thought movie company's did sketches of movie shots so they could get a better idea of how to film the movie. This comic definitely would have been better as a movie adaptation then what they made for as a movie. Enjoy!
Aliens Vs. Predator I never read these comics when they were first released and I was quite pleased the stories. With over 450 pages per volume it is well worth the price. I don't know much about the upcomming AvP movie but I hope in the future they include the Marines to give the humans a fighting chance.
