Of course, since Predator is very famous for a certain colour of blood that it bleeds, that gives this comic the licence to have black, white, red AND green colouring!

This series is an anthology, leading with a multi-part story set in Australia. There's also a completely nutso story about a woad-covered Celt taking on a Predator that weirdly ends up going very The Last Knight.

The third story, a third of which is under the cut, involves the rather genius idea of Predator going to a gun show.

Now, of the holy trinity - Alien, Terminator and Predator - I must confess that the last of the three is my favourite, even though it is objectively the least good. But even I, a moderate Predator fan, have to roll my eyes whenever someone tries to paint it as any sort of 'honourable'...

Darkseid's loomed behind the run so far - his death started it and his passing's the reason its new threat, the Nyctari, are active now.

There's a child of prophecy tied to those god-purgers, one Metron's interested in.

He's made a pawn of Maxwell Lord - brought him out of his post-Rebirth-Wonder-Woman coma and turned his resources to acquiring the child.

In issue #7, some of New Genesis'd arrived on Earth fleeing the Nyctari.

Those of Apokolips who'd fled the enemy's coming there first had also made it to Earth. Max'd met them - and Metron'd smoothed enough the way to their combining forces.

ExpandTheir goal was the prophecy child, whom they understood to be Darkseid again. )

Mod Post: Off-Topic Tuesday

In the comments to these weekly posts (and only these posts), it's your chance to go as off topic as you like.

Talk about non-comics stuff, thread derail, and just generally chat among yourselves.

The intent of these posts is to chat and have some fun and, sure, vent a little as required. Reasoned debate is fine, as always, but if you have to ask if something is going over the line, think carefully before posting please.

Normal board rules about conduct and behaviour still apply, of course.

It's been suggested that, if discussing spoilers for recent media events, it might be advisable to consider using the rot13 method to prevent other members seeing spoilers in passing.

The world situation is the world situation. If you're following the news, you know it as much as I do, if you're not, then there are better sources than scans_daily. But please, no doomscrolling, for your own sake.

Every couple of weeks I dive into the headlines, hoping there might be some news that it's actually possible to share without a mental health warning. And again I am disappointed.

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 3 starts this week, so there's that, I guess.

Oh, and another UK heatwave, with the possibility of another this coming weekend. Yay?

I gave up on the classic Teen Titans because the ‘hip’ lingo was too much. I lost all interest in New Teen Titans after George Perez left. Roy Harper put me off revisiting the Devin Grayson Titans by being a massive ass. Let’s hope I stick with this version for longer.

Pareidolia is related to patterns, echoing this three-years-in Batman maxi-series' subtitle.

It's also related to perception, echoing the motifs of the two previous stories. We Are The Wounded concerned tactile feeling, and The Voice In The Tower was audial - it'd ended on the rejection and acceptance of guiding voices.

Pareidolia opens on the acknowledgement of another motif that occurred in those two stories: ' [Gotham City, y]ou have always suffered fires. '

ExpandThe acknowledger's Batman. )
