The Predators were so useless in this story. You know what they could have done? Replace the large group of useless Predators who we never get to know, with just one singular one who's the last of his kind, and like a completely salty bastard. And to make him a possible threat to Superman, replace all of his alien tech with magical tech that he picked up over time on earth. So he's still got that mix-and-match Predator aesthetic, but slightly different for this story.

I'm a little late to this party, but a chunk of kryptonite made into a knife or speartip would have made a Predator a bit more of a threat. Especially if they have encountered enough Krypotonites in their past to reference him as a "sun spirit". Makes me think their species has encountered similar beings on more than one occasion.

Superman isn't weak to magic. He's weak to anything that's strong enough to punch through a tank, and that just happens to be magic. I'm saying that because there are writers out there who think Superman is like an anti-magic vampire, who will shrivel up if he touches anything magical. He's not. Magic just happens to be strong enough to kill Superman. Just like it is strong enough to kill any regular man.

I don't think there's any flaw in the Predators calling Superman a sun god. Just because they don't know who the Superman of Earth is that doesn't mean they won't know what a Kryptonian is. These Predators are supposedly 10s of thousands of years of old. Krypton only blew up 30-40 years ago in this story, and given how old these Predators are they could have heard stories of "sun gods" who become extra poweful when they leave their world for a yellow star.

Yknow. There was a lot of missed opportunities here. It almost seems like this story was heavily edited down from a cool original concept “these predators are from 14,000 years ago and have become more primal than their modern counterparts and are less honor bound” Wait. Bigger gripe. What were the predators incubating the aliens in? The facehuggers need hosts. Were they kidnapping humans from the surface since the ice age? Were they sacrificing other predators? Wouldn’t these all be predaliens then?? The writer didn’t seem to understand any of the source materials or had his story edited down to a nub of nonsense.

To have Superman and Batman begin by investigating missing villagers from a remote village, which only recently "joined" the outside world, and which claims to routinely make human sacrifices to it's "gods" would have been more interesting. Imagine a scene where they reveal drawings of their gods and devils to Batman, and they're Predators and Aliens. Also aren't there multiple alien contacts over the course of the DC universe? People being told there were two other alien species living among them for a while would find it distinctly meh.

The first (?) AvP comic, the one where the human crew get accidentally caught in the middle of the hunt, was structured really well in order to give it stakes and a story and not simply an extended bloodbath. The first BvP was also really well-structured to give it stakes and a story, so when BvP 2 was announced I was happy. Then I read it, as did friends. My memory is of summing it up as "there's so much happening that nothing happens" or "there's so much going on that nothing goes on". The friend I said it too agreed wholeheartedly. We didn't bother with BvP 3.

As far as taking Lois along Superman may have figured out that wherever he goes Lois is going to end up in danger so he's just keeping her close for efficiency's sake. As for the Predators, in the Dark Horse continuity they're supposed to be called Yautja so yeah, that's a screw up.

Xenomorphs are parasites in their fetal form. Imagine having a parasite in your brain or something and asking Superman to help and he’s like “Nope, it’s a living being, I can’t kill it.”

I'm talking about the illustrations. But maybe it's just the fanboy in me. Plus, in high school I had a teacher that was Olivetti's cousin, so we're like family, kind of.

I have the book on the making of The Phantom Menace. There were a LOT of practical sets and miniatures. Mostly, actually. I don’t know where everyone got this “it’s all green screen” idea. Have you watched the movie recently? The Tattooine section is about a third of it, and it’s all Tunisia just like A New Hope. Naboo’s Italy. Coruscant is sets on a soundstage and miniatures for exteriors.

Mark Schultz had a great run on the Superman: Man of Steel ongoing with artist Doug Mahnke around the turn of the century, around the Y2K and President Lex stories. This Aliens and Predator story feels like it was edited/dumbed down for whatever reason. I'm not sure Olivetti was "up-and-coming" anymore when this came out. He'd already worked with a lot of big names like Peter David on Last Avengers Story, Mark Waid on The Kingdom (split with Mike Zeck), and Warren Ellis on X-Man.

A versus comic written around fighting really only works if you buy into the hero actually being in danger. When Superman takes on another licensed property this leads this to Superman being weakened in the most contrived ways imaginable. Batman is still human, so in theory, he is at risk until he figures out what he is actually fighting.
