[THE MR. TERRIFIC]

Wow!

 

[Hobgoblin]

I know its crazy, but I always though that the xenomorphs were oddly beautiful. The Queen especially.

 

[THE MR. TERRIFIC]

I think they are are oddly TERRIFYING!!!!

 

[Kahoot]

I've always loved the xenomorphs but does anyone know how they see? Does it say in the books or anything?

 

[SuperFerret]

It's better not to know.

I always assumed they could just smell really well

 

[KevanG]

I think it was stated in one of the games that they hunt by pheromones. AVP2 maybe?

In the 3rd movie you get a POV from the Alien as it's running/chasing.

Is been a very long time since I've read the books but I keep thinking that they either communicate via chemicals or psychically. I think there was a Queen that communicated with the drones telepathically in Aliens Genocide.

It's about time for a new official poster.

Ghost Rider is a great visual, but the storytelling end usually falls flat

I so desperately want that to be real...

Exactly. Some characters are all flash and no substance.

I thought Jason Aaron's run was pretty good. So was Howard Mackie's, and Garth Ennis. The movies have been horrible; The recent works by Rob Williams and Simon Spurrier have also been pretty bad.

Ghost Rider needs a Rick Remender I thought..but he just gave the GR powers to Venom and Hulk. Ghost Rider also got beaten up by some no name Demon possessing Daredevil...it's just depressing...I don't get Marvel writers at all..they just piss away every opportunity they have with this character.

There has been some great GR material in the past. Filmmakers and story tellers in general just need to not try to make it a traditional superhero story and embrace the horror and other influences. I've said it before; a perfect GR movie would be 1/3 Easy Rider, 1/3 The Exorcist, and 1/3 Terminator 2.

Fair enough. I dont know much about the character but in the few comics I've read he's seemed pretty 2-D.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Johnny Blaze and Danny Ketch together?

@Hobgoblin: There are some issues written by Dematties in v1 in the 80s, they might interest you

Have you read that page? I don't see an answer there. If you don't have an answer saying, "Here is a really long wiki page that doesn't really answer your question at all" doesn't help.

I played the Alien vs Predator (2010) game and the alien's first person view had a weird camera lens but it's kinda normal.

From that Wiki page regarding the aliens sight-

'They have elongated, cylindrical skulls, but possess no visible eyes, though in the original Alien film, the top of the creature's head was translucent, with empty, human-looking eye sockets within. This element was re-used for the "Predalien" 29 years later. How the creatures see is uncertain. In Alien 3, a fisheye lens was used to illustrate the Alien's point of view. In the novelization of the movie Alien, the creature is held mesmerized by a spinning green light for several minutes.'

That's quite funny, I stopped reading after the mention of the Predalien. I was one sentence away from my answer!
