MemberOvomorphApr-02-2012 3:03 PMI would love it! I have a collection of all the aliens comics and graphic novels from my youth in the 90s. If your looking for a fix check em out. Aliens Beserker or Colonial Marines are a sweet read. If you want a link to them to check out let me know.

Good pic, Biomechanic!

MemberOvomorphApr-02-2012 12:56 AMI have story about graphic novels:
We had about 10mins to spare before going into see 'the phantom menace' in the cinema, so we went in a shop just to waste-time and buy kets. A friend handed me a copy of the phantom menace graphic novel, saying "you use to like comics check this out." I brainlessly flicked through the book and the page stopped where my thumb was...... right at moment where darth maul is cut in half. I screamed NNNOOOOO!!!! and closed my eyes, but once its seen it can never be unseen haha
moral of the story is..... never read a graphic novel unless you wanna spoil the movie

MemberOvomorphApr-02-2012 1:18 AMthey aint novels!! lol. i still call them comic books.
makes me wonder if they started calling them graphic novels because of parents yelling at their kids to read and that "comics dont count, put that trash away!"

MemberOvomorphApr-02-2012 12:30 PMLOL....I would also be happy with just a paperback to accompany the film.

MemberOvomorphApr-02-2012 3:55 PMa graphic novel of PROMETHEUS would be awesome,
personally, i'm more inclined to the classic comic look
although i think a mash-up of traditional hand drawn art,
mixed in the the precision of vector art would be great
i'm hoping it will look like this, but fresh

MemberOvomorphApr-02-2012 8:19 PMAlthough I rarely do any pop media art (or [i]fan[/i] art), I actually would love to do some Prometheus inspired art at some point. Maybe if I get some free time--although most likely "spacegirl" takes on Shaw or Vickers. Perhaps when we have more reference material--I dunno.
I DO hope that the film will inspire a lot of cool stories and art. Seems the Alien films were always good with that.
I remember [b][i]Deadliest of the Species[/i][/b] rather well. That was a great story, and would have made better film for the AvP universe. Too bad they didn't have the nuts to do that.
Anyone have [b]Aliens: Lovesick[/b] by Richard Forgues (Forg)?
