I honestly think this is a horror masterpiece. Sure it's a throwback to the original film, focusing on claustrophobic horror and dread rather than action and spectacle. But if you're a fan of the original 1979 Alien, that's the type of story you like. It's a tense story about a crew investigating an unmarked vessel that contains a team in cryogenic sleep, a ship in ruins, and a parasitic monster waiting to attack. It's everything I want out of an Alien graphic novel to be honest and quick read to boot! ( )
