    That’s an awesome one! Great backstory for the villain guy.

    Stronghold was another good one - it had a synth that was indistinguishable from the real xenomorphs that could go into the areas where they were farming the things. Not as dark as Labyrinth though.

      The backstory was shocking and insane and Killian’s artwork was amazing, I loved his style. I’ll never forget that one scene where the hero tells the doctor to go to hell, and he simply replies something like, “nope, already been there.”

      I also remember the brilliant artwork of Dennis Beauvis for Aliens: Book Two, which was the first comic I saw when it was serialised in a magazine here in the UK. Another story of a mad military commander who thinks he has the aliens under control, which he can control like an army.
