I knew about the books(despite I did not read them), but the Alien universe is one I cannot imagine in comics.

So your post isn't too suprising... believe it or not there were several Alien vs Superman comics...

Reading the comics would help with that.

Although aren't they technically graphic novels now?

Some are graphic novels but I've got a couple which are only 20 pages or so long and thus can only be refered to as comics :)

How much time did you spend to find the post you quoted? I wrote that at least half a year ago.

Killing aliens is the Predator's bar mitzvah.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

I spent around sixty seconds searching. You posted the statement on the 8th of May this year - less than three months ago. I remembered you posting it because it made Petrarch and I **** our pants laughing :nod:

obviously an Alien/Predator 1on1 would result in a Pred victory if the Alien were a drone or a "runner" but what if that alien were a Praetorian which are much, much tougher?
