    I remember reading an Aliens VS Predator book wherein someone described facehuggers as an “ambulatory dick.”

    In that same book, a character described humanity as “raping the planet” and another character said “I don’t remember sticking my dick in the dirt recently.”

    Neither of those struck me as strange at the time and I haven’t thought of the book much since until now, but maybe I shouldn’t have been reading that as a kid …

      The alien comics are like that, as well. I remember getting my hands on one of them amd being really surprised by the language. But only because I was kinda young, like your story, and my experience with comics was marvel and dc, not dark horse.
