Both as a paperback and hardcover. The hardcover reproduces scans of the original art boards, as if you were seeing them in person, before publishing. The paperback even has two different covers, the original cover and a more 'modern' looking one. Here is a link on their site: <br /><br />http://titanbooks.com/alien-the-illustrated-story-6328/<br /><br />I don't see a listing for the version with the original cover, but I assure you it exists, as I have a copy of my own. Ask your local book shop to get you one!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3893206653438189717.post-3970011639339055342012-10-31T06:26:22.841-04:002012-10-31T06:26:22.841-04:00Awesome.
