Aliens vs Predator

Dutch, you've read SD Perry's novelizations as well? I haven't touched AVP: Prey yet, but I read the three books he did on Aliens (Earth Hive, Nightmare Asylum, and The Female War) because they're all based on the first three series of Aliens comics from Dark Horse (Aliens, Aliens: Book II, Aliens: Earth War). Awesome stuff, man. The only thing I didn't like was the adding (and seemingly subtracting) of characters, but hey...General Spears is still a prick, so it's all good.

 

Frigid, I think I might have said that Dutch survived the first one, but in the comics his BROTHER (whose name is SCHAEF SCHAEFFER...originality rules) is looking for him and winds up discovering quite a few Predators along the way.

Some other good Predator comics are the uber-cool "Batman Vs. Predator" graphic novels (there are two of them, but the first one is the superior one), and AVP: War is also good (as, like I said in the PvAvT thread, it ties three series of Aliens and AvP comics into one series).

 

EDIT: Oh, and the reason I know all of this about the Aliens is because my childhood (from the age of 3 until the age of 11) consisted of Ghostbusters, Aliens, and Terminator. No wonder I'm so fucked, eh?

To my knowledge, only two Predator books were written, Concrete Jungle and Cold War. Cold War was pretty cool because it took place in Russia, specifically Siberia.

I actually haven't read the books in a long while, but I remember them being really awesome. I'll have to pick them up again when I have the money. Oh, and S. D. Perry is a woman. She's recently been working on the so-called "8th Season" of Star Trek Deep Space Nine in novel form with her books Avatar, Avatar II, Rising Son, and Unity. If you like Deep Space Nine, let me tell you, these books are a GREAT continuation of the series.
