Aliens/Predator: Deadliest of the Species
Following a one-year hiatus after his best-selling run on The Uncanny X-Men, Chris Claremont made his triumphant return to comics in this 320-page epic of Aliens and Predators. If you're a fan of Claremont's writing, or if you're one of the legion of Aliens and Predator aficionados, you won't want to be without this deluxe, limited-edition hardcover of Aliens/Predator: Deadliest of the Species. Jackson Guice and John Beatty (The Terminator: Endgame) delivered some of their finest art in the first three chapters, and Eduardo Barreto deftly carried the mantle from chapter four through the end. With a beefy, twelve-cover gallery inside, this limited edition boasts a tip-in signature plate painted by John Bolton and signed by Bolton and Chris Claremont.
