    I can’t thank you enough for sparking my interest in these early Dark Horse Aliens stories from the 80’s and 90’s. I was recently able to buy Marvel’s new omnibus, and I gotta say I love owning a physical copy of them!

    Love this channel, engrossing and brilliantly narrated.
    My best Alien viewing experience was watching Alien 2 in a theatre (not a cinema) in London, with a full orchestra accompanying the movie.
    Many people cheered whenever Bill Paxton said anything (including myself). At the end of the movie we all cheered the movie and orchestra. The conductor exited and when I thought he was coming back on for a second round of applause instead of the conductor, Sigourney Weaver & James Cameron came on completely unexpectedly and the roof came off the building. A wonderful evening watching one of my favourite movies.
