How Raised By Wolves Fits Into The Blade Runner & Alien Timeline
Raised by Wolves on HBO is Ridley Scott's latest foray into science fiction; here's how the show's timeline matches that of Alien and Blade Runner.
https://screenrant.com/raised-wolves-blade-runner-alien-timeline-connections/
"Not sure what you mean when you say a hive-mind "
some of Davids Workshop Notes seem to show that he has been Experimenting and Trying to Perfect some kind of Extra Sensory Perception/Organs with his Experiments.
so i was thinking he could maybe look to take these and APPLY them to his Creations (on Origae-6), and maybe they would have Senses that we DONT and maybe they could Communicate in some kind of Telepathic Way or using some kind of other Sensory Way that could maybe give them some kind of HIVE MIND (so they would be somewhat like the BORG from Star Trek) have like a Collective Consciousness.
"Unfortunately the way that it seems to go at least when they made the prequels makes me feel done with Alien theatrically"
I think a lot of People feel that way with the Prequels, i think thats WHY they are in a PICKLE as far as to CONTINUE with the Prequels, with Sticking Points being that the FANS will expect a Continuation to Conclude with the Answers to LV-426 but then to NOT be about that David was the Creator.
They will LIKELY want to see more of the Engineers/Space Jockey and indeed LESS about David etc.... While some Fans may wanted to Continue with his Story.
You SIMPLY cant Please Everyone... and to Continue and TRY and please the Majority is going to be TOUGH.
Why i think the Prequels will just EVENTUALLY just be Forgotten about.
The One Idea i proposed could GET AROUND not having to Follow David, by VIRTUE of the Engineers returning to Planet 4
Here is WHAT they Discover.
*The City and its Inhabitants are Destroyed, with the USE of the Bio-Weapon from LV-223.
*Proof that Human looking beings had taken a Engineer Juggernaught from LV-223.
*Skeletal/Rotting Remains of Human looking beings and a Preserved Corpse of One (Dr Shaw).
*The Remains of a Synthetic Human (Walter).
From these the Engineers would be able to Work Out that Humans had gone to LV-223 and then some also had Ended Up on Planet 4. The Engineers would then have to DETERMINE from WHERE the Humans Came (Easy if the Earth is the only Place where Humans should be).
I think it would be Difficult for them to Discover where the Covenant and David are heading...
The Engineers would also come across the ROOM where we saw David had his Eggs... and so they would have NO REASON to Pursue him, apart from REVENGE and then its Finding Him.
I think they would certainly be Wanting to Destroy Earth and Humans, they would also want to SECURE LV-223.
They may be IMPRESSED with the Eggs that David has Left Behind, and so they could see the Potential in this Creation and CHOOSE to take it to LV-223 to Mass Produce and Evolve.
Which could LEAD US to the Space Jockey event.
You would just have to find a WAY to get Human Characters into the PLOT.
You then have a Movie that would bring back the Engineers, go back to LV-223 at some point, that will CONCLUDE with the Eggs and Derelict. You completely BY-PASS having to go and Follow David...
Yet his Role is NOT going to be Discredited... he becomes the Middle Man, and WITHOUT the Engineers Experiments, Black Goo there would be NO EGGS that David had Created on Planet 4.
And so the Engineers are WHO had Started to WHAT become the Eggs that David had Created, but the Engineers would then be the ONES who go and EVOLVE and Mass Produce the Xenomorph we have in the Franchise.
So David did-not Create the Wheel, he kind of Reinvented it, and the Engineers take his Reinvention and PERFECT it to get those Eggs on the Derelict.
This is maybe a way to Conclude the Prequels without having to IGNORE the First Two or THROW them into the None-Canon Rejection Bin.
Well Congratulations Indeed.
Hopefully they will be back to Contribute more when we get News about WHEN the Next ALIEN Project starts to begin Pre-Production.
The Alien is The Alien
David's critter is a cheap knock-off.
One of my goals with ALIEN: Manticore and it's sequel is to give The Alien back it's mystique, it's Majeur, it's Power, Mojo and Insidious Appeal.
I will try...more than that, well, all I can do is my best to save The Alien from being dragged down medicority Avenue to has-been dumpyard.
Thank-You!! :D
I was taking a bit of a risk with that one, I wanted to have it keep some rough-edges to fit better withe the content.
The Violence, yeah...that's how I feel about The Enemy.
But, the Intent of it is to show more of Selinaehra's backstory, as 'OLARKUS' handles how she ended up alone in a harshly unforgiving universe at 6 years old.
The way Ash described The Alien...
...also describes her very, very well also.
'A survivor...unclouded by conscience, remorse or delusions of morality.'
It's also an 'appetizer' for what's to come in ALIEN: Manticore 'Out Of The Silent Dark'
;)
Paranatural Selection, I like both the title and the story. I can imagine where you got the inspiration from but it resulted in something creative and good.
BD: About humanoids, then maybe if you look at what he says about a kind world then that could've been the case. It doesn't have to be what they planned for the next one but it's a possibility. Creating hybrid humanoids maybe but it still gives him too much of a role and I’m not willing to sit through another David-movie. Sorry, but I don't care about what he does next. To me he is kind of dead, even though there might be people that think otherwise. He could have been better written and executed in Covenant but they made him worse compared to Promtheus.
Not sure what you mean when you say a hive-mind communication, can you clarify? Like a smarter version of zombies or the monsters in AR (the scene where they get free from the ice-mist thing)? I don't think that we can draw any conclusion from his experiments on the Engineer babies since we didn't see any of that. Why do you make that connection?
Super-soldiers and Alien V, it could be difficult since AR is such a disappointment. Keep it as a spin-off and besides it's time to try something new in this franchise. It depends on the writing and the execution of it.
“I see how it PERFECTLY FITS within the Themes/Arc of the Prequels...…”
You and your themes, ;) I don't really care about the themes if it's executed as being about a mad android and everything else isn't important. I'm not sure if a lot of people would care, I wouldn't. Thinking about how it would be on-screen makes me tired and bored. At least it's better because having David as the creator is just one of the things that AC did wrong.
“You would NOT even Need to have David in the Movie to do this.”
Hell yeah! Maybe we could get a decent alien-movie then. It isn't just about reducing the role of David, it's also about other things. What they were going with David and it being about him, they totally need to reconsider all of that because whatever one thinks of it objectively it hasn't worked just look at the box-office and subjectively it isn't exciting.
About humanoids, then maybe if you look at what he says about a kind world then that could've been the case. It doesn't have to be what they planned for the next one but it's a possibility. Creating hybrid humanoids maybe but it still gives him too much of a role and I’m not willing to sit through another David-movie.
1.Reduce the time of David or get rid of him totally
2.More about the Engineers, make them or someone above them the creator of the Xeno
3.More about the human characters, and they got to be written by someone that knows how to do that
4.Don't cut out character-moments for run-time
Those are the things that they need to do to make me even consider watching another alien-movie. Unfortunately the way that it seems to go at least when they made the prequels makes me feel done with Alien theatrically.
BD:
I wouldn't mind if they would explore that WY-company a bit more but it got to be done in a smart way. Keeping in mind how everything after Alien 3 has been I got to say that I'm a bit worried that it would get ruined. My idea is that the WY bosses would be the bad guys if such a movie would be made. After the prequels I’ve had enough of curve-balls, thank you very much. Not to say that you can’t have surprises but they got to be well-made but I have grown sort of skeptical keeping in mind how everything after Alien 3 have been. I’m almost reacting automatically like “what will they screw up this time?” but if there are writers that know how to make a good story then why not but they got to be good.
The Weyland company could be interesting but I refuse to have it be about AI. Maybe they could have them like robot-assassins (think a more scary version of the assassin in Star Wars 2). Alien V could work as long as they won't involve anything that is connected to Ripley. Hopefully we will see new things and not more Ripley or something related.
You're right with the last paragraph, David as the creator of the monster is bad and showing that the Xeno is just something of a nightmare would be lame. I want it to be unknown, the prequels have cheapened it down enough but it could be worse. They got to add to the Xeno-lore instead of taking away from it like the prequels have done. Maybe there is a way to save it but they got to be smart. My preferred way is that the beginning would be on a planet that we don't know about. Right now we have the black goo but that could be taken into different directions. What's the most important thing for now is to save it from being made by a mad robot which is something that Alien V could show even though the movie in general would be bad. If Scott would still like it to be made by David, then whatever because that got to be changed.
Congrats to Ingeniero, thanks for your contributions. Stay around

For convenience, here's a link. This new Topic allows much better organization and makes things MUCH easier to find for everyone. :D
Yeah, I am going to proceed with my idea that challenges RBW in Storytelling.
Not immediately, aside from a Vignette or two, as I have a lot else on my plate.
But I can do Better, and I won't be relying on special effects over writing-quality.
I love RS and his son as they are proven and do great work, but I am uncertain about the other directors and producers...they seem more interested in recycling Sci-Fi trope and slathering things over with special-effects.
Hey GREAT Blackwinter!... Looking forward to it! :-D !
Congrats Ingeniero, lemme give you a hug.
The flying sex pic recalls Cube 2: Hyper Cube.
Congrats on hitting one of The Lucky Numbers!!
...well, not-so-lucky if you actually visit those worlds, but that aside, Congrats!!! :D
Short form, I TOTALLY agree with you about the practice of rebooting and lazy/sloppy writing these days. This of course doesn't shock you one bit, I dare say. :D

"Ripley is having 'Dreams' about horrors to come for her daughter, or Grand Daughter, or someone else she is connected to in her life"
Never given this Much of a Thought..... Certainly something to Consider ;) its a Different Take for sure.
So forgive me if i am WRONG... so what you are saying is WHAT IF we have some Alien Movies where we Visit some of the Dreams about Ripley and her Family while she is in Cryo-sleep either on the Narcissus or the Sulaco?
So the EVENTS of these Movies could Happen either between Alien and Aliens or between Aliens and Alien 3 but that Alien 3 does eventually Happen? The EVENTS are merely Dreams she had....
IF SO then as i said i NEVER gave that a Thought and so i have to APPLAUD you for such a Suggestion ;)
END QUOTE
EXACTLY the general avenue I was trying to convey, but you took my idea a few steps further and made it Better!!!
Ripley has her dreams, but the Continuity of ALIENS and ALIEN3 do not get disrupted as 57 years is a LONG time for some good stories to happen within.
ALIEN was and will always be an Experimental franchise, and the Fandom is so disappointed with the recycled trash and mediocre formula-based lazy-writing that they might welcome it...if the Continuity is respected and the stories are Good, with good characters and some decent writing.
Also, the Dreams the Ripley is experiencing need not involve The Alien, as she's 'connecting' to blood relatives, thus they could encounter other horrors and Ripley would still 'pick up' on it.
As an idea, the new cycle of films start with showing Narcissus, alone and silent in the dark--akin to the opening of ALIENS, we see Ripley in the capsule, a monitor flicks on, scramble statis, we see Ripley twitch and such even though in hypersleep, and another monitor clicks on...more scramble static, the monitors clear...one is Vital Signs, showing some dangerously high (albeit by Hypersleep standards) and the other monitor...
Well to quote David....
"I've watched your dreams."
From there, we enter the monitor, and visit in upon Amanda Ripley...and then the new story begins as we follow Amanda along as she contends vs. oh...maybe she's been hired by W-Y for a covert salvage op of an Engineer site/structure???
I think if done properly, this would allow a new cycle to open up.
Thank-You!! You're quite welcome and I hope our convo inspires someone, somewhere to help our franchise in an official capacity.
Until then, I'm going to remain in this universe, and do what I can to elevate it out of the pit The Industry has dropped it into and give the Fandom something fun and intelligent to read.
Over-Active brain, cranking out too many ideas too fast...I know what you mean, and that's exactly why I keep notepads always at hand! :D You never know when an Idea will pop in then try to slip away, like out grocery shopping for example.
Think of the notepads as idea-traps. :D
Us too, agree with all of you! :D
The meds could well have had some effect, it's entirely likely and is an established fact that such happens. I agree with you about staying away from meds. I turned to herbal solutions as like you and many others, I just couldn't handle the side effects...they were so much worse than the original problems.
Age and entropy, yeah there's no real way to avoid that, but specific dietary supplements can help bolster the system overall and mental fucntion, some also have beneficial action on keeping joints healthy as well.
And, we love you as you are. (HUG)
The current revised prognosis is conservatively estimating that 3 treatments at most will entirely eliminate the 'Enemy Forces'. :)
Things are coming along, and between what I am doing to bolster my own health and interfere/hamper/handicap The Enemy, plus what preparations are being made for the rad treatments, the prognosis is looking much more promising than it did a couple weeks ago!!!
Thank-You for the compliment!!! I just did some updating on my Central Repository Topic, please have a look as it sounds like you'll find something there you'll enjoy! (HUG)
Thank You...
Hopefully your Treatment will Improve for you.
For me its just Part of Aging well something thats on a Slow Decline to Loosing my Marbles... well my Wire-work in the Brain needs to be Redone lol But its something that Progresses slowly...
I still do wonder if my Memory Problems come from different Medication i Tried to Fix other Neurological Problems that Fudged me Brain even more... No Meds for me! they NEVER agreed with us lol
But YES i should keep a HARD NOTE PAD for ideas... i have a Very Over Active Brain, but last 3-4 years i Forget ideas if i dont Write them down.
"In Space No One can Hear You Rip-Off Dallas & Lost."
Indeed and the Biggest Problem/Concern with going for such a Plot is it OPENS up the Question of WHAT ELSE do they Reboot? If you make a Flawed Movie, Kill Off a Character and then Regret it, then to be LAZY and just Reboot with oh its a Dream or any other Plot Device really just ALLOWS for them to NOT come up with Good Writers and Stories.
What if the REALITY Parts of ALIEN V suck? Do they make a Alien 6 and go well most of ALIEN V was also a Dream?
I think this Franchise Deserves to Maintain some Continuity rather than to be like a BATMAN or SPIDERMAN where we just see a Reboot/Retake like over and over.. it Works for some Franchises. But i think with ALIEN we can Move On.... by that Ripley had her Journey the Only way Forwards i would like to see that would involve her would be a Continuation after Alien R but your Faced with some Problems with that.
"Ripley is having 'Dreams' about horrors to come for her daughter, or Grand Daughter, or someone else she is connected to in her life"

IF SO then as i said i NEVER gave that a Thought and so i have to APPLAUD you for such a Suggestion ;)
As YES i am sure some people do at Times have Dreams of when they are OLDER and when they are Younger.... and so with such a CURVE-BALL kind of Thinking then that could really OPEN UP the Possibilities for sure... its a Case of would Fans want to Accept such a Story if its something that NEVER REALLY Happens?
I say WHY NOT!
I am sure we all remember the Scene with Ripley in ALIENS when she begins to Chest Burst and the First Time we saw that we may have been WOOOOAH!
But then she WOKE UP.. (we was like Thank God it was a Dream) and this is what Drove her to Accept the Offer from Burke to Face her Demons.
I think its a case of WHAT TIME-LINE does her Dream World take Place, is it a Dream about her in the Past, or Future? Is it about Amanda in the Present, or Future.
The Dream Revelation would Require a Scene to SHOW that she is Dreaming and so they would maybe have to Replicate her Sleeping in ONE of the Cryo-Pods and have to CGI to De-Age her for that Moment....
But YES this could Work ;)
Its a CASE of WHEN does the Dream take Place and WHOM is the Dream about....
It could be about a Little Girl and you would be thinking who is THIS... then your Drawn to thinking is this Amanda? as a Child? But then it could be Ellen as a Child as she is then Chased by Monsters...... Ripley could be LIVING the Horror/Ordeal that NEWT had via a Dream but the Girl in her Dream is NOT to be Newt but it could be her Daughter or a Younger Version of herself.
she could Dream about the Scene when Burke informs her that Amanda is Dead..... ONLY when we look at the Photo Etc it is Ellen Ripley who is Dead, then we look at who is looking at the Photo and its a Older Amanda who wonders WHAT happened to other Mother, then we can Flash Back to some Horror Story about RIPLEY coming to a Horrific End...
You could have a Scene were we have Ripley who is aged 70 with her Granddaughter, telling a Bed Time Story and then we see that Ripley then Chest Bursts in front of her Granddaughter...
But its a CASE of these Individual Stories may not have enough to Expand to make a FULL MOVIE... maybe you could make a FULL MOVIE but you would have to PICK a Certain Time Period for the Dream World and WHO it is about.
Or COULD a Collection of Individual Stories that are woven together that are say a Triage of Stories/Dreams (Anthology of Dreams) and so it would be like say the 1983 Twilight Zone: The Movie
Would that WORK?
I know the Alien Day 40th Anniversary Collection of Fan Made Shorts certainly WON a lot of People over.
So thanks for that IDEA ;) It shows WHY you are a Good Writer BWW i think it would be Interesting to Consider.
Hey Blackwinter-Witch... I hope things work-out for You Girl! You are GREAT!! :-D !
Just did an update, on the primary entry...thing of this Topic...topic header?
Whatever it's called, you'll see the new work there. :)
It's a Vignette, so not a strain to read, and I hope it's as enjoyable for you to read as much as it was fun to write.
As you can all see, I am still in the game, and will continue to be.
Things are a bit challenging, but work on the larger pieces continues on.
Consider my works to be 'love letters' to you...The Fandom, for without you there is no franchise.
In Space No One can Hear You Rip-Off Dallas & Lost.
I personally have the opinion that anytime you fall back on the 'it was just a dream' idea without some really good ideas involved...you are giving a huge middle-finger to your Fandom.
EG; Dallas with Bobby was an act of sheer desperation, and LOST...well, Lindelof isn't that talented, so he ripped off DALLAS because he wanted a quick and easy/lazy way out.
'It was just a dream' is Simplistic, Lazy and Insulting to a franchise's fandom.
Now, if you do the 'dream' thing, and one then expounds off it as it was a form of foreshadowing, then you're okay...still not doing great though.
THIS however comes far, far too-late in the game for it to be anything but a huge and intentional 'F-You' to the Fandom.
Unless...they use it to launch into a new age, say, Ripley is having 'Dreams' about horrors to come for her daughter, or Grand Daughter, or someone else she is connected to in her life.
Then it fits...Ripley has horrible dreams, and she's out in the interstellar wastes, unable to do anything to help, apart from wake up due to the system detecting significant neural distress, sends a desperate message to Network thinking that 'yeah just bad dreams but at least it'll make me feel better', then all she can do is go back to sleep...
Thus, Continuity is preserved, and a New Storyline can be launched to continue the franchise.
Taking a stab at it, but likely I'll prove unable to explore or reach the depths you visit regularly in contemplating such things, still here we go...
Angels/Cherubin; Weyland might we have designed the logo himself, and/or some trusted person in the Company took heavy inspiration from his preferred motif of Divinity/Egyptian influence?
That said, they might represent Weyland employees/Synthetics acting a Guardians of Humanity's future and worlds?
The Worlds;
Those most likely represent the worlds Weyland has already opened up to Humanity as well as showing/inferring that The Company will never stop seeking and opening worlds to Humanity.
The name 'Covenant';
It might mean the agreement and bond between the Colonists and The Company, the name symbolizing that The Company will support them and not simply send them out alone, that there is a bigger plan and more to come in the development of the Origae-6 colony?
As big as the ship was, it was simply too small to carry anything more than a 'Pioneer' mission, to kick things off.
....and this makes me think I really need to make the effort to design and describe what 'Manticore' ship patches look like....and thank-you for kicking that idea off in my mind, BigDave :D
You are most welcome!! :D
Sorry to hear about the Lost Ideas, I know how that feels--I think every human being on Earth can relate to that in direct or related ways--and it's not a good feeling.
Perhaps try keeping a small notebook with you, I did and still do and always will to grab ideas that pop up so they can't slip away without me at least capturing their 'footprints'. :D
The way I work, and this might give you some ideas on directions to try, is I do a synopsis that's at most a couple paragraphs. I note down or point-form the main story, plot points and key elements--such as critters, important character aspects, etc..
Dialog, I let that happen as I write...I tried planning and scripting out dialog, ended up tripping all over myself.
I keep things loose enough that I have plenty of room to wander and roam while writing yet have my Notes and such to ensure i don't lose track of important things.
I keep all the above simple, as I have found simpler is better, for me at least.
Thank-You for the compliments, praise and well-wishing!! I hope your condition improves or can be made less troublesome. ((HUG))
Life is certainly less-fun with significant health issues involved.
I am continuing on with stacking odds in my favor, and the day of Engagement vs. The Enemy is coming, things are looking good, but the real test will be the actual results of the R-Treatments.
In the meantime, I continue on writing as best I can and staying in the game without over-doing it and pushing myself to far even though I have Good help to rely on. :)
I Certainly think you have to look at WHY they would Pursue such a Folly regarding the Xenomorph.
Beyond a Bio-Weapon as they ARE (Invasive Species/Killing Machines) then INDEED there are a Lot of Applications/Traits you could Obtain from the Xenomorph.
Regarding what THIS Project could be about... i think with David Giler and Walter Hill they did seem to have a Interest More in the W-Y Company as far as Agenda and their Role in the Franchise but also regarding A.I too.
Lets just HOPE they dont try and throw us a CURVE-BALL that could be Upsetting to Fans in regards to the ALIEN Franchise being ALIEN...
For example a W-Y Mind Control Project.
I still think THIS is the Project that is in the Works and in 2022 we will see the ALIEN V see the Day of Light.
It seems that it would be about Ripley and Reveal that some of the Ordeal she has been through are Merely Dreams/Nightmares... but its a CASE of HOW MANY?
Revealing the Xenomorph is something that DOES-NOT even Exist and is either a Figment of Ripley's Nightmares.... or a Nightmare Vision that Weyland-Yutani would INPUT into Peoples Consciousness would UPSET the Fans just as MUCH as the David was the Creator Plot.
Thank you for this Blackwinter-witch
I will have to Read some of your Works ASP..
I have had many ideas for Stories within Sci-Fi and Horror Genres but all i seem to do is make a say 6-8 Page Large Synopsis/Plot Points and then FLESH OUT some Key Scenes to what they Contain inc some Dialog and then i dont seem to Progress Past that :(
I had Lost works in the Past and while i have Loads of Ideas all the Time, i do need to Write them down as i FORGET a LOT buts due to a Condition. Which kind of Stops me giving it MY ALL on many things.
Once again thanks for Sharing your Works, i will have to Read them, and Hopefully your Health Improves so you can get back to what you LOVED as you Certainly are a Talented Writer.
NP, I understand fully! I am more grateful than I can say about the efforts for better exposure!!
The monetization I see being very problematic as this is after-all Fan Fiction.
While I do and will retain all rights and control of my Unique and Original Properties/characters, etc. within these fan-fiction works...the rest of it, the 'chassis' is entire owned by Fox/Disney as we all know.
In the end, even if I only end up getting a teensy bit more exposure, and manage to satisfy the craving for decent stories in a handful more Fandom members, I'll be happy with that.
In the end, I just want to give the Fandom some good stories to enjoy, to the best of my ability, that don't leave them trying to overlook major continuity and canon issues or mediocre storylines.
...Stories that show them and comfort them that this franchise, this universe, is alive and well no matter what The Industry tries with it in the future, and that people (like the other Authors and Authors-to-be around here & other locales/sites) care enough to write for them, and make the effort to keep it alive.
The monetization...I will not even dare dream about, I remain on the 'we will see what we see when we see it' school of thought about such.
No expectations, but no despair...a Balance-Point wait-and-see.
There is some activity afoot to try to get better exposure and possible monetizing, but it's slow since this is a new process for those involved. We are fortunate to get this for free, but the works deserve proper compensation. Not trying to be coy or cryptic and there are no promises, but efforts are underway.
Thank-You!! You are most welcome!! :D
NP on Issuu, to be able to allow folks to download from there I have to pay a subscription-type fee...pondering it, looking things over to see if I'll get my money's worth from Issuu.
But for now, the Google Drive method seems to work well enough for people, and if they're not experiencing issues with downloading my works, then all is good. :)
I am doing all I can to gain any and all advantages over The Enemy, and better days are ahead...getting to them will be a challenge, but then again people crossed the atlantic ocean in storm season in wooden ships.
Thank-you also for the general well-wishing to all the Fandom. (HUG)
I am and will. I have a nw Vignette in the works, it's Tricky...it needs to be done Just Right, but it's coming along nicely.
The Sequel and tie-in short have NOT been forgotten, but right now some review is being done to Ensure adherence to established Continuity and Canon.
Quality-Control, so to speak. :)
Blackwinter-witch I have downloaded all your works, with many thanks for your kindness to give them all for free.
I have downloaded them from Google Drive, not ISSUU, probably other did the same, so if you don't see too much activity on ISSUU do not worry, it is not relevant as long as you provided links to Google Drive.
Thanks again and I pray for your better days ahead.
Take care, you are in our hearts, brothers and sisters from the Alienverse.
Keep writing, you have a gift for that!
While we wait for the episodes 8, 9 and 10 of the hit show 'Raised by wolves', i have a souvenir for my fellow marine comrads, the comic series 'Aliens: dead orbit', of James Stokoe.
Here's the link,
https://getcomics.info/other-comics/aliens-dead-orbit-tpb-2018/
Thank-You and I am glad you enjoyed it!!
These Vignettes are fun to work with and help me flesh-out ideas in small steps that I can integrate and compile together later.
Little ideas and small events too tiny for a book or even a traditional short-story...kind of like culturing something in a Petri-Dish or test tube I guess, so to speak. :D
Excellent work Blackwinter-witch. For a short story it is deep in thought and detail, and endless in scope. Covers a lot of ground in those few pages :)
Thanks for sharing it dk :)
Windows 7. If it ain't broke, don't try to fix it.
