We all hate store variants but

As long as the child was armed, I imagine the Predator wouldn’t care, just fair game.

I don’t think so, wasn’t there once a kid with a toy gun that a Predator did not kill because it was a kid? Or maybe because it was a toy? I’m not sure what the exact rules are, but we have seen in movies and comics that they will not kill people who are sickly or children and etc.

Predator 2 he didn’t kill the woman police officer cause he saw that she was pregnant. :wink:

I think it’s more like throwing pregnant crabs back into the ocean. You want the game population to remain healthy for future hints! It’s and entirely self-interested calculus.

I read an idea once that there should be a movie set on the Predator planet where it is revealed most of that alien species think hunting humans is gross and lame because there are better creatures out there and only, “Lazy,” Predators hunt game as harmless as humans. Made me giggle.

I would love to see an Predator movie set on their planet where the Predators all work day jobs and only go out hunting humans like they were going out fishing with the boys. Hey guys, great idea this weekend, when you are done down at the space ship factory, lets go hunting people over on earth, I will bring the beer.

The Predators hunt for the meanest, baddest, most skilled warriors in the Universe. Thats what they do. They do not hunt for ‘fun’. Predator 1, he hunted elite military and left the unarmed woman alone. Predator 2, he hunted a veteran cop, dangerous Street gang members and Gary Busey, while leaving the child with the toy gun alive, and the armed pregnant cop. Predators, they hunted the most dangerous people on Earth. Prey, they are hunting fierce Comanche warriors. Heck, even in AVP the rookie Predators are forced to train against a hive of Aliens, and we’ve all seen what a hive of Aliens can do to even the most dedicated Colonial Marines.

They won’t hunt if there is no challenge. Predators have an unhealthy pride complex. Thats why he took his mask off against Dutch, and went hand to hand. Thats why Harrigan was given the old pistol in the Predator ship.

Predators don’t hunt children, even armed children. Their little soft skulls don’t make for impressive trophies. The Predator on Lashleys cover will be poked fun at by his Predator colleagues for such a pathetic trophy. :100:

Buying that Chew if it gets split with one of the stores here.

Looks like someone was inspired by that Sozomaika Catwoman cover.

Oh no, I agree. I just thought it was a fun theory online that maybe humans are considered easy game compared to other things in the universe.

I like @Anthony with his idea of everyday Predator life too. Heh.

Think about it, some fish are harder to catch, some guys use hotdogs to catch blue gill down at the local stream and some gas take boats into the ocean to fight swordfish, predators are just like that.

Why can’t a store pay for 3000 copies, but request only 1000 or 1500 be actually printed.

Marvel gets their money and saves on some supplies. Store doesn’t have to pay to have the extra books shipped and go through the hassle of destroying them.

There’s gotta be a better way than this. What a waste.

It’s only a matter of time until people start focussing on the environmental cost of deliberately printing a bunch of books only to destroy them.
