Why would anyone want to be a part of The Hunger Games?
Early in 2011 I became hooked on The Hunger Games book trilogy. I’d heard of them sometime before but had written them off as yet another series of teen romance novels in the vein of the Twilight series. But the positive chatter about the books was intense and when a feature film version of The Hunger Games was announced I decided that I needed to at least check the books out and quickly fell in love with them.
In The Hunger Games, it’s the future and the planet has just recovered from some great cataclysm in the past.

New Sam Kieth Aliens Comic Book
It looks like artist Sam Kieth is working on another Aliens comic book.
Back in the early 1990s Kieth illustrated the third series of Aliens comics that was set about a decade after the movie Aliens (1986) in a world where the movie Alien 3 (1992) never happened. Here, characters Hicks and Newt returned to Earth to find it swarming with aliens.
After Alien 3 was released which opened with the deaths of both Hicks and Newt, later releases of the comics were edited and Hicks was renamed Wilks and Newt Billie.
I always thought that after the movie Aliens the Dark Horse Aliens comics were much better than the films.
