Jonesy!
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

A beatiful book you will really connect with.
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!

A great addition to the lore of the first alien.
Jonesy is honestly so goated imagine scaring off a xenomorph cause it slept in the same room as you.
M**!
Jonesy Strikes Back!
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!

Perfect Gift
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!

In space nobody can hear you meow...
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...

Could almost be a kids storybook!
A wonderful little take on a cats perspective through the original Alien film. Zero dialogue cos cats don't speak. Light-hearted but still hits all those story beats you remember from the film, albeit from a completely different and indifferent perspective. I love the artwork and each page was a new delight to the eyes.

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.

"Jonesy" ist ein unglaublich süßes und liebevoll gemachtes "Kinderbuch". (Es ist nicht WIRKLICH für Kinder, auch wenn sie es eigentlich lesen könnten. Aber es ist nunmal die Geschichte von "Alien"!) Die Zeichnungen sind simpel, aber liebevoll und auf so ziemlich jeder Seite gibt es mindestens ein Bild, das mich laut auflachen ließ. Entweder, weil man es als Katzenbesitzer selber so erlebt hat oder weil es einen Moment aus dem Film in einen völlig neuen Kontext setzt. Es ist etwas schade, dass das Buch verhältnismäßig kurz ist, aber gleichzeitig ist es auch schön, dass das Konzept nicht überstrapaziert wird. Im Endeffekt kann man bedenkenlos zugreifen. Wer hier nicht mindestens ein Lächeln aufs Gesicht gezaubert bekommt, hat kein Herz.
