 An awesome continuation of the Aliens saga December 31, 1997

The art in this book is some of the comic book industry's best. It is obvious, as you read, that pieces of this book were used in the Aliens Resurection movie sequel. The military tries, and fails, to control and use the alien species as a biological weapon. This book was written before "Aliens 3", so look for a grown-up Newt. Ripley makes a brief appearance as well.

The sequel to Book One, this may be as good. Although it lacks the first installment's insightful monologues due to is shortness, it again thoughtfully presents insanity and power in a way more effective than any movie could do it. The artwork is fully painted and is breathtaking. The spaceships are excellently designed with the characters faces detailed and sensitive. The tormented love story at the centre of the piece is unspeakably moving. Should the writer ever wish it, his work could be up there with John Wyndham and the artist could be on a par with the brothers Hildebrandt. Buy this masterpiece!
 not as good as BOOK ONE, but still exellent! 4/5 stars! March 11, 2007
this is a very good read. the story is as cpompelling as ever, and the art is great.
in the book, Newt, Hicks, and Butler the android are still drifting through space, when they discover that they have stowaways...Aliens! after dispaching the dead whight, they discover a military facility where an insane general, General Spears, is trying to breed, and control, Aliens in order to get Earth back from the Aliens infestation from BOOK ONE.
the story is good as ever. although it lacks the depth of BOOK ONE, it is still very involved and very comelling. this book also continues the love story with Newt and Butler, and the complications from Butler being an android. very nice
the art is exelent. it air brushed, and totally 3-D. it looks digitally enhanced. the colors are well handled, and are great to look at.
over all,this book has a good story, good art, and is a worthy addition to the ALIENS series. however, you must read BOOK ONE first. this book will make little sense without it.
