Batman/Aliens

Summary: The best Darkhorse/D.C. comic I read so far
Review: I read the reviews about bva, heard a friend talk good things about it, plus it looked cool, so I got it.I read 3 more times.

its that good. Im not a die hard, or huge fan of the batman and aliens, but the comic looked good so I got. The story was great and full ok suprises. The art is great even for todays standerds. The plot was very creative, and not just thrown together.

The aliens are great, but theirs only 4 of them but one thats like 10 times bigger then batman shows up a the end.puls all these other D.C./Darkhorse crossovers like SvA,(superman),SvP,Greenlantern v.s alien,are just gay. This story makes alot of sence then these others, and batman dosen't have any powers to lose so the battles even. Put this book at the top at your list. The only reason it didn't get 5 stars was because the last alien died to fast.

Summary: A Very Entertaining Comic Book!
Review: I think that this is a great comic. It has cool artwork and it has an excellent story. The only problem is that Batman wrestles the Aliens like they are nothing, when they are supposed to be super strong. But besides that, it is very good. A must have for all Aliens comic collectors.

Summary: Absolutely terrible...
Review: I'm a huge Bernie Wrightson fan, but this has to be his worst work ever. I'm thinking of the Wrightson who illustrated Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, did Captain Sternn, and great horror work. This was just plain awful. The only explanation has to be that the story and dialogue are so bad, he simply wasn't inspired to do top quality work.

Aside from that, the "rough banter" between the mercs was hackneyed and predictable, as was the excuses for them to wander from the group to be summarily slaughtered by aliens. "I gotta go kill that damn chatterin' monkey!" Yeah, brilliant.

This was slapped together, as most of the Aliens/Predator crossovers have been. Since the success of the original Batman vs. Predator, DC and Darkhorse have been trying to capture lightening in a bottle again only to fail miserably over and over. I could write a better premise than this junk. Don't bother with it.
