[Gianfranco Mancini · Rating 5 out of 5]

I just loved this 2 issues 1992 classic tale from Dan Barry and Dark Horse Comics founder Mike Richardson.



A visceral gore-fest totally nailing the sci-fi/horror trademark elements of Predator franchise with 'Nam veteran mercenaries finding carnage and mayhem in the Nicaraguan jungle and a long flashback with the Yautja hunting Franco-German soldiers heads in the Great War.



Just my most favourite one Predator comic-book ever and inks from Chris Warner, iconic artist of these series since first classic issues and the guy who first thought up the Alien vs. Predator concept, was a perfect cherry on cake for me.



Excelsior.

A quick little two-part series read. I enjoyed this one and I enjoyed the artwork and everything but I'm not really one for wartime stuff and there is a lot of that in these comics. Still, was ok.

A little messy how it was told. And every character was unlikable. But watching predators hunt during a war is badass. Picking on the survivors to present a challenge is awesome. Wish had more focus on that. A 3.5 out of 5.
