## Description

Vacant. Two space helmets resting on chairs. Electronic hum. Lights on the helmets begin to signal one another. Moments of silence. A yellow light goes on. Electronic hum. A green light goes on in front of one helmet. Electronic pulsing sounds. A red light goes on in front of the other helmet. An electronic conversation ensues. Reaches a cresendo. Then silence. And when the silence is broken... the crew of the Nostromo must grapple with a terrifying life force they cannot leash, nor even comprehend - the Alien! The stunning color graphic novel of Ridley Scott's legendary sci-fi thriller!

Review: Great Find - Hard to find
Review: Perfect adaptation! Wonderful art - This book does everything it can to capture the look and feel of the original movie. The art looks a little cramped. I suspect earlier editions were printed in a magazine format which would better suit the layouts. But all in all this book is a Must Have for collectors of the series. You might skip some of the later books for any number of reasons. But it would be hard to exclude this one from an Alien illustrated library set. At least, it was for me.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Consistently impressive adaption
*by J***V on January 31, 2020*

I was 10 when Alien hit the scene in 1979, I heard a lot about the movie and was already a sci-fi fan but was prevented from seeing it for a while by my folks (of course). However, one day while shopping at the Bon Marche (!) in Seattle, I came across a palette of these graphic novels and furtively poured through it while glancing over my shoulder for my mom, laugh. I shuddered when I got to the chestburster scene, it was graphic and Walt Simonson long before his seminal Thor run did terrific work on the art of this adaptation. Checking it out again after 40 years brought that reading session back and was doubly enjoyable since the movie Alien has since become a top tier favorite of mine. Great book all around, recommended.
