“Lucey’s unique philosophy and style of expression on display in new book and beyond…”

The story is just as fun to read in one sitting as it is to visit again and again, and at a price this low, it really is a steal of a deal, especially for the Alien fan(s) in your life.

We spoke with Mr. Lucey recently about the genesis behind Jonesy, how being a cat dad himself aided the storytelling process, how he worked to get the tones of the story just right, and Jonesy’s curiosity about the rest of the crew and the Xenomorph itself.

Jonesy was released earlier this week, and you can pick up a copy if there are any kids that you want to indoctrinate into being horror movie fans -- or even any adults who were unable to finish Alien because they ran out of clean underwear.

Wednesdays tend to be terrible days for everyone, so to get you through the week, we’re going to focus on cats. Namely Jonesy the cat, heroic survivor of Alien.

Filed To: THIS IS AWESOME.

Verdict: A fun tribute to a key character in a major movie. 9/10

Rory Lucey joins Sean Ellis and Melanie Harker to discuss his book 'Jonesy: Nine Lives on the Nostromo.'  Believe it or not, you already know Rory's work because he created the SMC logo *shock and awe*

“Each page is drawn with labor and love of someone who lives their lives by that of a cat’s presence. Rory perfectly captures what kind of shenanigans a cat could get into on a large space vessel. For those wondering, there is not a line of dialogue in this book. It’s all charmingly illustrated.”

You'll even get a Jonesy stress ball to get you through your next viewing of Alien!

“And now, thanks to the folks at BloodyDisgusting, we’ve learned that Jones’ terrifying story of survival is finally being told in greater detail. Author Rory Lucey presents that riveting tale in the upcoming Jonesy: Nine Lives on the Nostromo, a full-color illustrated book that gives readers the cat’s POV of the entire xenomporph massacre on the ship.”

“Here's some catnip for Alien fans: The untold story of how everyone's favorite fierce feline, Jonesy, outsmarted and evaded the Xenomorph in Ridley Scott's classic sci-fi horror film is coming to a bookstore near you!”
