So Harrison,

Which Aliens comics did you check out?

As for the Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis comic, I didn't like the story in it as much as playing the actual game, plus it really didn't need alien beings to explain the Atlantians' level of technology or the whole mutant war.

Yes, Dark Horse did many movie tie ins but I can't say it was always good stuff, some franchises are really difficult to write comic spin offs for and Dark Horse seems to pick up all the action movies.

When DH started the Aliens Vs Predator they were good but then they milked it too much and they went down hill. The DH Star Wars comics especially Dark Empire and Dark Empire II were great but again DH milked it to much and lost the plot after a while.

I've no idea which Aliens comics I looked at. A friend I used to know was a big comic collector and had over 1000 in his collection at the time and I used to look through many of them when I visited his house.

The ones I enjoy the most have to be the Star Wars ones. Especially when based on the bounty hunters, Sith or the Empire. Much more interesting than stories centred around the Rebels and Jedi.

Yes, it seems have happened a lot with the DH franchise comics, some start out okay but then degenerate until they aren't worth the paper they are pressed on.

I liked some of the SW comics, my preference going out to the reprints of Classic Star Wars and comics in the New Republic era.
