The Thing from Another World is the first of the comic series published by Dark Horse Comics. The series acted as a continuation of the 1982 film The Thing, with three stories (The Thing from Another World, The Thing from Another World: Climate of Fear and The Thing from Another World: Eternal Vows) directly following its events, and a serialized visual novel (The Thing from Another World: Questionable Research) which ignored the preceding stories and acted as a separate stand-alone sequel to the film.
I’m a big fan of the 1951 film, but I’ve never finished the 1982 version. What did you think of the comics?

These 2 issues are a direct sequel to the 1982 film so I would recommend watching the movie, which is a modern horror classic IMHO. The comics are great as well and fairly hard to find.

My comic shop is finally re-opening next week. I collect about 10 different comics a month.
btw; If you are interested, I wrote a short essay on The Thing from Another World called “Intellectual Yet Idiot.” I’m open to any feedback: https://christopherjohnlindsay.com/2020/05/09/the-thing-from-another-world/
