Bro, this has got to be the most demented and insane shit that I have seen anyone do in any of these Alien comics....... and I'm all for it, I'm not gonna lie. At least it's not another "an alien's here, and they gotta fight it off or escape" story, nah, this man is making animals, humans AND xenomorphs suffer just so he can work on his music, and it is way more interesting than it sounds. Also, why hasn't any of the people he is working with called him out on this stuff? He is literally sacrificing animals and humans to this thing just so that he can record its noises, while talking like a maniac at all times, and nobody has a problem with this? Perhaps he isn't the only one here that is also off their rocker.
