of all the books and comics

Alien rogue.

I would be so entertained if they grabbed ideas of this.

is that the one with the engineered king?

Yes ali

I trully think the crestion of the king design will have a purpose and it was a teasing for fans.

I could see blomkamp tackle it for a5. Fusing his concepts. 

I would love it to close ripley saga.

The only ones I've read so far are Aliens:Earth Hive,Nightmare Asylum.And female war.I've also read AVP:Prey and some comics.I'm currently reading Prometheus:Fire and Stone on the internet.I also own Alien:Harvest but haven't read it.

Of the old comics, the original three story arc of Book 1, Book 2 and Earth War were pretty sweet (though Earth War fell away rather badly). Best to be read with Hicks and Newt as the protagonists as an alternate version of Alien3 and beyond. The rewrite changing the names didn't really work - especially in Earth War.

Labyrinth and the original AvP series are also well worth a look. They all are in varying degrees.

Your talking where Hicks was changed to Wilkes and Newt was changed to Billie correct?If Earth war is the same thing as Female War than yeah that was my least favorite.The other two were quite good though.

Yeah.  Book 1 became Outbreak (or Earth Hive in novel form), Book 2 became Nightmare Asylum and Earth War became Female War (which was a better title).  Female War got edited due to some character relationships which I won't spoil, no longer being relevant.

just finished river of pain. good read and there r survivors from the colony so maybe another book may come out to follow them

I've read the comic that earth hive was based on but no longer have it.I'll try and read them.I believe they're on the site i've found.Thanks S.M.

ali81 I've been wanting to read that trilogy of books.How are they so far?

river of pain is the last one, set prior to burke telling ripley theyv lost contact with the colony and from the point mr jorden gets facehugged. the first 2 r directly linked. I prefer the first 2 as it gets into the action fairley quickly, river of pain takes a while but its depictions of the derelict r fascinating and really gets the imagination going about what happened

As much as I didn't like a marine contingent being at Hadley (should've had Colonial Marshalls instead) and some continuity gaffs, River of Pain was my favourite of those three books.  Golden managed to make the character relationships relevant to the plot instead of just being arbitrary.

Unfortunately it was a missed opportunity in that it didn't touch on the 'last stand', how Newt survived, or the backstory of the colonist they found in the hive.

Excellent I'll try to read them when i can.

yeah I was a bit disappointed it didn't go into newts survival a bit more. well it didn't at all really. at least gave us an insight into going for food and water and how she avoided detection. I think though here comment 'they mostly come at night' pretty much gives it away

As you may know there is a comic series about called Newt's Story.I don't know if they're canon though.I haven't read those either.

if theyr about her survival alone then could be worth a read

I think they are.I found them online as well and intend on reading them.

River of Pain sourced some bits and pieces from Newt's Tale, but that too didn't go into any real detail on Newt's time on her own.

which site do u use to read these comics online? I know where to find scripts but struggle with comics though it is a works computer and many sites r blocked even if they have a slight connection to games

It called www.readcomicbooksonline.com.I hope it works.They have a lot of Alien comics among other things.I decided to try it out because a lot of people reference them.Also it cost absolutely nothing.
