Jonesy: Nine Lives on the Nostromo

Jonesy is honestly so goated imagine scaring off a xenomorph cause it slept in the same room as you.

If you love Alien and have a thing for cats, this cute little book will certainly bring a smile on your face...! Drawings only, no text - nice to watch it time and again, just like the movie, but we follow Jonesy in every way that cat owners can relate too. Even though Jonesy looks a bit drawn like a doggie more then a cat sometimes it is still ...Jonesy. Cute, self centered, lazy, curious and playful! -A delight to recognise how your own cat would have been on the Nostromo. Miauw!!!

A wonderful visual tale on the life of Jonesy aboard Alien cargo ship the Nostromo. His story begins when the Team returns from LV-426 and takes us right through to his survival with Ellen Ripley. There is charm in every page and the adventures of Jonesy will be relatable to everyone. We often ask in movie land why nobody ever pays for anything or why there's always ample ammunition.....those questions remain...but we have answered the question of what really happened when Jonesy was put in his cat box! I recommend to cat lovers everywhere that you will smile from beginning to end!

This was the perfect gift for our cat loving alien fan friend. It was highly appreciated. Nice little hardback with colourful pages of kitty/ alien antics!

Brilliant book if know Alien and you want to see what it looked like from the cat's side

Who were the real heroes aboard the Nostromo? Ripley? Kane? Ash? No! The real hero was Jonesy! In this graphic book we get to see the Alien saga, in a new light. Jonesy, tries to warn his idiotic humans but to no avail! Without dialogue or script, it has an appeal, that transcends mere language. A purrfect tail, from the Feline POV!

THIS IS ADORABLE!!! This picture book has no words, because its from the viewpoint of the cat, and cats can't speak of course! (Well not any human language!) The art work is beautiful and this was a very well received gift for my partner, he loves it, what more could I ask for? It was also a great talking point on Christmas morning

When I saw this thing I had a "Shut up and take my money!" moment. "Jonesy. Nine lives on the Nostromo" is a small comic book describing the movie "Alien" from the point of view of the cat, Mr Jones... Not even one word is said, it's all pictures. Deep love of cats and a VERY THOROUGH knowledge of the movie "Alien" are required to enjoy this thing; being guilty of both I really had great time with "Jonesy". Not willing to provide spoilers, I will say just two things I learned from this comic book 1) Cats will be cats, even in outer space 2) Even xenomorphs cannot resist cat's charm...

The original Alien is my favorite movie. There has been... so much... alien franchise tie-in media. Comics, novels, merch, the Alien vs. Predator movies....just so much *meh*. I've consumed a lot of it. The game Alien Isolation used to be my favorite, but now this weird little book is. It's...delightful. A surprisingly accurate retelling of the story of Alien, except through the ideas of a doofy little cat. I bought it expecting a one-note-joke children's book to put on my "shelf of aliens crap." Instead I got something that made me—briefly—happy. Here's what makes it brilliant: The events of Alien are accurately depicted here. Yup, that one too. But from the adorable picture-book of the Nostromo's cat, Jonesy. And told without words, just lovely little watercolor squares. One of the most creative and effective genre mash-ups I've ever stumbled onto. Buy it, if only to support the author.

Artículo ideal para coleccionistas.

Très sympa pour égayer vos coins lecture

Excellent combination of the original Alien story line and Jonesy doing Cat like things. Kept my interest throughout with the cartoon like drawings really telling a story we all know and love. Recommended, had a hoot checking out the book, and have revisited a number of times.
