LOCKE & KEY ENJOYED A successful first season on Netflix and a Sandman series is currently in production at the streaming giant, and now the two series are meeting on the comic book page this month. Written and drawn by the former’s creators Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez, the two-issue crossover begins in Locke & Key/The Sandman Universe: Hell And Gone #1 from IDW before DC returns the compliment with its own one-shot early next year.
“It’s been something of a winding path to being able to put this out into the world,” admits Hill. “Gabriel Rodriguez – who is my artistic brother – and I are about the same age and love a lot of the same comics, particularly Sandman. When I was in my late teens/the early twenties, the writers I cared about were the ‘British invasion’ writers who changed comic books, like Neil Gaiman, Alan Moore, Grant Morrison and Jamie Delano. They swept in from the UK and showed what was possible in the artform, reinvigorating it and returning comics to their ’50s horror roots.”

Making Alien - Jaws in Space - Forty-five years on from its original release, Alien continues to terrify. We dissect what arguably remains the most chilling instalment in the saga
The seven-strong crew of the commercial mining spacecraft the Nostromo seal their fate after reluctantly responding to a mysterious distress signal on a hostile planet. Here, a face-hugging alien from a derelict ship impregnates and later kills executive officer Kane (John Hurt) after its offspring is birthed onboard. After being unleashed, the fearsome newborn with acid for blood proceeds to dispatch the remainder of the crew.Ridley Scott's much more convoluted prequels have yet to reveal how the knowledge that led to this initial interception was acquired. However, the premise of the original Alien is perfect in its uncomplicated purity.
