For the past few years, each April 26th I have to look up why it’s “Alien Day”. The date is named after the plan­et LV-426, where the xenomorphs are first encoun­tered in the orig­i­nal, 1979 Rid­ley Scott film.

So, any­way, hap­py Alien Day to my fel­low sci-fi fans.

Well, they’re back in a DVD for­mat in Scourge of Worlds — A Dun­geons & Drag­ons Adven­ture (actu­al­ly released in 2003). I’ll have to give… Con­tin­ue read­ing Find-Your-Fate Returns on DVD
