 | | Piecemaker is the second trade from Checker Books collecting the second Alien Legion series, which was a cult favorite from the 90s. |
 | | Because accessibility was generally a bigger watchword and a stronger skill when Alien Legion was being produced, the characterization is not as deep, as Dixon winds up having to restate his case for each character in each issue. |
 | | However, the undercurrent of the book is definitely a strongly developed ensemble cast, with a special focus on the renegade Jugger Grimrod, the stern leader Sarigar, the by-the-book second officer Torie and the old soldier Zeerod. |
