    Loved this run. Happy to own all four and the two Predator omnis. We need the AvP run.

    I really hope they reprint vol 2, I was able to get 1, 3 and 4 no problem at good prices. Vol 2 I had to go digital (I love that Marvel makes their omnis available digitally)

    Vol. 2 is out of print unless you're ready to pay a house note for it

      I read the print run was less than half of the other volumes. If true I wonder what the reason was?

      If that’s the case, I wonder what 3 & 4 were 🤔

    Great overview. Very unfortunate that volume 2 went out of print quite some time ago and it's now hard to get the complete collection.

    Terrific review Gem! I've read most of these stories & It's awesome to see you showcase them! And I would definitely be interested in a Review of each respective story!

    I’ve got volume 1. I was content with only that omnibus. Really cool that Marvel reprinted these comic issues from the DarkHorse catalog.

    A suggestion for a Alien video series: after you read all 4 omnis, you make a video review for each one, and you have to rate each one from 1 star through 4 stars, without repeating. You will have a top 4, and it doesn't need to mean that you don't enjoy the one you give 1 star, but it means you enjoy the others more.

    I have not checked out any of that original Aliens stuff, but those look like they go so hard dude and right up the indie vibe I prefer reading. Have a great day pimp & much ❤

    Loved Romulus and watched all the movies before to get hyped for it. The first AVP is an underrated film too.

    I own them and think they are great. The newer paper and color with the omnibus editions looks much better than the paper Dark Horse used for the originals.

    i own all 4 of these omnis and im so proud of them, theyre my favorite spines on in my entire comic collection, such a MASSIVE aliens fan and when i found out these existed i had to get them.
    ive only read the first omni and im half way through omni 2 but theyre amazing so far cant wait to read all these aliens storys, aliens salvation was so damn good, my jaws dropped time and time again reading it.
    ALIENS OMNIBUS VOL 5?! i need it.
    also glad to see someone else has the standard edition cover of vol 2 like i do, i think it looks way better than the DM one everyone loves, the DM is sick, but it doesnt match the others being a different color entirely on the front cover.

  • @josephmorales3478

    I wasn’t too big on the first alien Omni. I read the rest digitally. That said, I’ve loved the new series they are (were?) doing.

    I'd be interested in your thoughts of these. I've been reading these comics since the 90s and I love most of them. Dark Horse did a great job with their movie-licensed material and these Marvel omnibuses are awesome, too.

    Im kind of surprised how many tie in's that Alien and Predator has in a lot of other comic series, I feel like it has a WAAAY more comic influence than the movies have had on cinema, Like i'll be looking up a Random comic like lets say "Dredd" and ill see a comic called Predator Vs Dredd, Or Predator Vs Batman, Its kind of wild how many books there are out there

    • @GemMintCollectibles

  • @lorenzopliskin1384
    @lorenzopliskin1384 3 місяці тому +1

    lets say starting the series chronologically starting with prometheus not the best.......mind that daekhorse is its owm canon that take offs the og movies not the prequels
    but tbh they managed to snuck in som many great ideas for the series as whole,included the never made laiens sequel by Cameron scrupt,wars on pkanet earth, and alien 3 scrapped script

    I still find it weird that Marvel can print the Dark Horse comics. What on earth is the point of getting a licence when you can’t even print your own comics in the future, because I’d say Dark Horse can no longer print them.

    • @GemMintCollectibles
      @GemMintCollectibles  3 місяці тому +1

      Yea they can only print during the time they hold the license. Weird how if I bought the license, I could print the whole back catalogue created BEFORE I owned it.

      Always found it odd how they refuse to say Dark Horse anywhere in the book except for issues that were called Dark Horse Presents.
