Imagine if this was made into a movie..no spoiler no leaks just dropped on the viewers from no where 🤯

[@barriolimbas]

Indeed it reads like a movie, a PERFECT MOVIE.

[@cornelius575]

They need to make a movie or animated movie that shit going to be 🔥🔥 and probably a billion dollar movie tbh or close to billion

[@habiit7178]

Coming soon because I just bought the neca toys, I mean the algorithm is perfect.

[@charliedallachie3539]

Yep the predator made trophy’s of worthy opponents and Batman would fit that.

[@C1ph3r420]

The only fan film leaves on a cliff hanger

[@marty7442]

I actually read these comics in 1993. These 3 comics were a well-written crossover.

[@casedistorted]

Yeah I read them when all 3 of this series came out as a kid in the early and mid 90’s, they were very well done and scared me cuz I was very little

[@lizardC549]

I actually have this comic, it's one of my favorite ones

[@Bit2brain]

lizard .master Me too. It was really well done. I would have been curious to see another version with the Batman armor used by Azrael.

[@thejanusproject32]

The Predator in this version is not honourable. Kills anything and everything. Killing a cat for no reason.

I once had an idea with Batman and Joker from the Arkham game so Kevin Connolly and Mark Hamill vs The Alien and Predator. I don't know if it really sounds like good idea

Second ones pretty good too.

[@DarkheartedMKGames]

@@jeggsonvohees2201 yeah third one is really disappointing though

[@jeggsonvohees2201]

@@DarkheartedMKGames I'll agree with that. I like the concept of a father and son Pred hunting together, but it would be better as its own story rather than a crossover.

[@DarkheartedMKGames]

@@jeggsonvohees2201 see I could see it working as a crossover but it was too much of a batman story instead of a blend of both mythologies and was far too "bright" in its art style

Predator was hunting humans for sport, killing them and hanging them on the ship as trophies. Ain’t nothing what he did was better than anyone else. He was a monster that needed to be put down and stopped.

Love this story, one of the few graphic novels I’ve retained since I was a kid. Armoured batman was the shit

[@RICKYCHAVEZ1980]

This guy is a terrific narrator. I could listen to him read books or comics all day long. Excellent video, I only wish I could give two thumbs up but I'm definitely giving it a thumbs up.

[@86blackberrywhite]

He sounds a lot like Colin Salmon IMO.

[@noremac387]

This story is so good because you really see Batmans Detective skills. most stories. Batman is just seeing doing superhero things. But here you actually see the detective side of him shine

[@DeltaAssaultGaming]

Of the 3 Batman vs Predator stories DC's put out over the years, I can say with some certainty that the first one is still the best, by a considerable margin. The second book suffers from an incredibly bad artist at the helm, and some plot twists that are straight out of Predator 2... resulting in a story that's often clumsy and feels derivative. The third book is quite an improvement, possessing good quality artwork, but since it's the third outing with Batman and these fiendish foes, there's a sense of familiarity and Batman feels a lot more confident in taking them on, which makes the Predators feel completely nerfed. It doesn't help that we have to deal with the pesky sidekick Tim Drake, who butts in and wants to know what's going on every five minutes. The first book is everything that you could hope for in a titanic crossover matchup between Batman and the Predator. They're both hunters of men, so naturally the Predator judges Batman to be the worthiest prize for his trophy collection. But on the side, he doesn't mind spending some free time cutting and gutting some of Gotham's most dangerous mob bosses and henchmen. Since this is their first encounter, Batman isn't really sure what's going on at first and we get to see his detective skills at work. But even though he gradually pieces it together, it's not nearly enough, as this Predator is fully as capable as he's ever been depicted and nearly kills Bats in their first direct confrontation. That's what's so satisfying and refreshing about this story, the fact that unlike the majority of his street level foes, Batman is at a severe disadvantage and gets knocked out by a foe vastly more skilled and vicious then any he's faced in his past. But of course, you know Batman will rebound and prep time his way to even the playing field for round two. And he does it just as you'd imagine Batman would, with equal parts technology, martial skill, and strategic thinking. It's very reminiscent of Arnold's prep time in the first Predator movie. And that's the thing... with the Predator in this urban jungle, you'd think it'd be very similar to Predator 2. But while that's true on a superficial level, the actual essence of the story is much closer to Predator 1, with two larger than life characters eventually finding themselves in a duel to the death. Besides the excellent story, BvP also boasts fantastic artwork from a young hungry Andy Kubert. In the prime of his youth and brimming with talent, Kubert delivers a very high quality Jim Lee-style depiction of Batman, while simultaneously drawing a striking and powerful image of the Predator. He perfectly captures the sheer strength and musculature of the Predator from the movies, in highly dynamic poses which effectively convey the savage nature of this alien from beyond the stars. Since the book came out after Predator 2, we also get the full arsenal of the Predator, such as his target seeking smart disc and net-gun. Highly recommended for anyone with an interest in Predator or Batman... it's the best of the series and one of the greatest crossover efforts in all of comics.

[@oHelmy3131]

Best commentary ever!... I just bumped into this series on ebay and purchased all 3 of them... because of how dang excited I am I decided to youtube it and bumped into all this... I appreciate all the comments but this one was the best!

[@melvinfranco2142]

Great reasons, sir.

[@Evixyn]

Great recap of the film and story of Batman. This video has a great narration and I just loved this video. Thank you for your summary.

[@HellzDrifter]

Subjective but nice opinion buddy

[@dallaire876]

Tf is wrong with predator two

[@brightglory5734]

Nine minutes in and it's honestly great.

[@dondraper3898]

Thanks, Mr H (and a VERY Merry Christmas to you and Jasper) I love this comic. Dave Gibbons made this work in a way that has yet to be paralleled he also offered the only contribution to The Watchmen that is any good (that being the art). The Kubert art here is also worth noting (early on in their career but still rocks). "It's me... BATMAN." - armed with a 'Slugger. No gadgets or Batmobile- just a baseball bat. Fuckin' awesome and should be more iconic in the pop culture landscape than it currently is.

[@jakemonster001]

I like the father/son one. When the pred doesn't see Batman in his Freeze Suit and then Batman smiles it's just great.

[@Merica1776o]

Predator: Who.. the hell… are youuu Batman: *inhales* I’m Batman.

[@Humongous420]

I can remember walking inti Mr Paperback and seeing this first issue, i can remember waiting in anticipation for the next issues! Mr H you really brought back some amazing memories from my youth by covering this comic series. Thanks for everything you do bro! Sitting in quarantine isn't so bad with channels like yours

[@robsosa5197]

It seems like batman would constantly be the target of predators. He would be a top prize for their race.

[@melabbott1894]

This is awesome. Had the BvP 3 shot as a kid and probably read it 20+ times. Thanks for the member berries. 👍

[@sbentsen2714]

I love these older '90s Batman comics, the art style and the costumes are amazing. Really digging this time period 👌🏼

[@shainewhite2781]

This is pretty cool! Thanks for the video!! Merry Christmas!!🎄❄️☃️

[@v888t]

The Predator in this one is BRUTAL... He kills everyone and everything....

[@mikedolan6176]

I've gotta say that the first run, the issues here, are some of the best comics I've ever read. Collected these when they came out and I've always been a massive Pred/Bat fan the story works so well and the art is beautifully dark. A gem in my collection and a perfect blending of mythos. The other two collections were not nearly as good as the first. Same with the Superman/Alien books. Couldn't nail it like that first run. Great video, sir. Once again. 🤘🇨🇦✌

[@danielwillliams9669]

Great narration! Thank you and even though I read this comic many years ago - you definitely brought it to life.

[@Pendy13131]

I loved these comics as a kid, they hold such a special place in my heart.

[@VarangianVigilante]

[@alextalbain9269]

It was really clever to have the predator kill himself like that as it makes sure Batman is able to stick to his no killing rule.

I love this comic book series!! It's pretty bad ass involving the Dark Knight Facing off against an intergalactic warrior hell-bent on turning Gotham into it's personal hunting ground.

[@thedarkknight1971]

17:24 - Being a Batfan (have been since I was young), I have that Graphic Novel, as well as countless others)... That whole page (minus the speech bubbles)... I had acrylic painted onto the entire back of my motorcycle jacket, and, the colours, the way it looks on the jacket... Looks just like an enlargement of that page stuck on my jacket. It's excellent work done by an old friend. Still have it 30 years later too! 👌👍 It would be brilliant if they did this in film, however, ONLY IF they did a proper job with NO 'Modern day' take on characters, storylines or pushing 'The Message' etc 😎🇬🇧

Brings back memories. Borrowed this from the library as a kid in the early 2000's.

[@francisdionbatchar542]

Imagine if batman never held back from the start... Remember, he tries hard not to kill because if he did, he would not choose a bat as a weapon of choice.

[@mrpushrod9279]

I had this comic when it came out, but I was young and didn't take care of it. I always liked the artwork in it. The Armored Batsuit and the way the Batmobile was drawn are some of my favorites. Great job with the Narration Mr H. if youtube doesn't work out you should look into voice overs for animations.

[@thumpire]

Loved this man, thank you very much. I never had this graphic novel myself as a kid but my friend did, I ended up getting Batman Vs Predator 2 which we traded back and forth over the years. Would be great if you did the 2nd one as well, with all the assassins hired to kill Batman being taken out by the Predator instead. Love your channel sir, thanks again for all you do. Merry Christmas 🎄.

Tips for anyone watching this - Don't try to read and listen simultaneously. You'll neither read, nor listen. Just listen, and watch the figures. It's a audio graphic-novel.
