5.0 out of 5 stars Noguchi Rocks!, September 23, 2001

By 

"toddrme" (Belleair, Florida United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Aliens vs. Predator: War (Dark Horse Collection Graphic Novel) (Paperback)

This is actually a compilation of thre different aliens versus predator comics.

The first deals with a predator who doesn't follow the rules, and the consequences for him.

The second deals with marine squad sent to ruishi after noguchio has departed. They encounter a predator ship, and manage to piss off both the escaped aliens and the predators.

The third is the comic the book is named after: aliens versus predator: war. This book deals with Noguchi after she joins the predators. Once again, the planet the predators choose is inhabited by humans, and now Noguchi must decide whether to stay with the predators and let the humans die, or risk certain death fighting against the hordes of aliens and predators on the planet to save a handful of people.

For those of you who have read the novelization, it is just that, a novelisation. The novel is based on the comic, not the other way around (the comic is 4 years older than the book), so don't get mad at the novel for not following the book exactly.

This is an excellent continuation of the aliens vs. predator series. I very strongly recommend reading aliens vs. predator and aliens:berserker first. Otherwise, the comic will make little sense.

I just finished the book in one day, I already ordered the comic, and yes I agree that Perry or whoever should make a movie of it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply one of the best out there, July 26, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Aliens vs. Predator: War (Dark Horse Collection Graphic Novel) (Paperback)

This graphic novel isn't completely true to the book, but who cares?! This is one of the best of novels out there!? It's a great storyline, and I love how the Character change and development with everybody, plus you really get to explore the Predators. I really have respect for those artists . Thanks to the Father and Daughter who wrote the boo, so they could make that awesome comic! The art is terrific!
