Thrill of the Hunt (Alien Vs Predator)
Description
Comic Description
In the farthest reaches of space, a creature terrified us. Acid blood. Armored skin. Razor-sharp teeth. No mercy. In the depths of a rain forest, another creature hunted us. Perfect camouflage. Fearsome weapons. Brutal methods. No conscience. In 2004, these monsters clashed on Earth in the greatest battle the universe has ever known. But far in the future, long after a technological catastrophe that started a second Dark Age, all memory of these two species has been forgotten. And when Mankind again reaches for the stars, we will discover that, truly, those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it. Once again, Man is caught in the middle of a deadly struggle.
Based on this summer’s major-motion picture from 20th Century Fox, Alien vs. Predator: Thrill of the Hunt carries the themes and story elements from the film into new territories of action and terror, crafted by Mike Kennedy and illustrator Roger Robinson (Azrael, Batman: Gotham Nights), all in a value-priced original graphic novel. Cover painting by Society of Illustrators award-winner David Michael Beck.

I have to say, this comic is not very good. The action is somewhat stale, and the whole thing is rushed. The xenomorphs do basicly nothing for the entire comic, other than attack the humans TWO TIMES. That brings us to this books biggest problems... The book is very specificly called Alien VS Predator, yet the aliens and preds never actually meet! We are treated to them fighting only in a flashback with really bad artwork. Oh, yeah, I forgot to mention the art... It looks terific in some pictures, while terrible in others. I hate to admit it, but this is just not a good comic. A pity, there was alot of missed potential here. Had the aliens been excluded, it would have made a decent Predator solo-comic. But alas, what was meant to be a great book falls short on virtually every level. I give it two out of five stars.
