COOL COVER: ELEPHANTMEN #25
Cool, makes me think of the synthetics -sorry, "artificial persons"- in the first Dark Horse ALIENS comic... you know the scene! This cover is by BOO COOK. I'd love to commission an Alien piece from him.

All those tubes with the spheres intersecting are a straight rip from Ash.
I found the one issue of Elephantmen I read to be terrible. The character designs are great, but then they throw in all this pathos crap.
DON'T try to make your book about soldier elephants and detective hippos deep, just draw cool jungle animals being badass and spare us the hoaky sentiment.
I think the scene Jim is refering to is when the aliens tear the marines apart, revealing that they are in fact synthetics (like Ash). Right?
Yep! That's the scene! The artist (Nelson) drew the synthetics' inards with bulbs and tubes like Ash from ALIEN (not like Bishop in ALIENS), which is way cooler and freakier.
