The art is still immaculate and looks phenomenal on the heavy stock paper (can't imagine how expensive this was to print). The writing is...fine? Characters are painted in broad strokes and heavy emotions without actually getting to do anything significant. There's a reliance on "humans are the real monsters" mic drops that I find tiring (especially in relationship to the films which are both more specific in their targets and empathetic towards their characters).

Fun if you are as obsessed with Alien/s as me but not much to chew on as a book itself.
