Aliens Vs Predator Comics (some movie SPOILERS, I guess)

I had never read these until recently.  I saw the 1st AVP movie in theatres- I got a ticket for free when I bought the Predator DVD and I still felt ripped off.  I was pretty disappointed by that movie.  I was older and wiser (and once bitten) when I rented AVP:R.  I honestly didn't think it was much of an improvement, but it was fun to see (sort of, it was so dark!) the hybrid design realized on the screen.

At any rate, I've been picking up several of the Dark Horse Omnibuses recently and I did indeed pick up AVP V. 1 and 2.  It's a little hard to remember the excitement there was when the Alien skull first appeared in the Predator ship at the end of P2 and the possibilites that suggested.  And a little hard to put yourself in the mindset of an Aliens or Predator comic reader who would be reading the first stories of both of them together...  But still, there are some really good stories in there.  Some real stinkers too, but you can mostly ignore them and focus on the good ones.  They really take the story places the movies (A, P, and AvP all) really never went.  The Aliens movies are always hinting at what the Company wants to do with the Aliens, but you never get to see anything ever come of that.  Well, the comics actually branch out enough and consider other storylines.

Well, that's a bit of a ramble.  Look into them if you're kind-of interested.

AH, THE GOOD OLE DAYS OF DARK HORSE COMICS WHEN NEARLY EVERYTHING WAS PRINTED IN BLACK AND WHITE.

Really?  Just one of the stories (8 pages maybe) are in B&W in the Omnibus.  Possible they recoloured for the new printing.

IT WAS MAINLY THE ALIENS STUFF THAT WAS IN BLACK AND WHITE.
