Seeing the Predator wield that antique gun at least makes me happy that Chuck Dixon is referencing one of my favorite Predator movies, "The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly Motherf"""ker".
Sal's disdain for 20th centuary comics is perfectly symbolized by the Predator on set placed on the marvel shelf next to "How to draw comics the Marvel way"
Every time Sal covers a Predator book I just want to eventually have a Predator story written by him come out. It would be epic and blow the current marvel series out of the water.
Whenever Ben impersonates Predator talking through clicks, I laugh a little. If only he added a "grrrrrr" (like how Perry The Platypus would usually talk), that would be even more funnier😂😂😂😂. Keep it up, guys. Love the work.
Oracle not knowing Robin's identity while weird is consistent with continuity. Dixon doesn't have Barbara and Tim meet in person until Cataclysm. Even then it's not established that she knows Tim's identity until 2001. Although it's very likely that Oracle always knew Tim's identity and was just humoring him.
For years now, every time I hear about or talk about the predator in any capacity my mind goes back to an issue of Twisted Toyfare Theater. I don’t remember the context of the gag, or the Toyfare issue it was in. I just remember a predator being there and the onomatopoeia they used was just “predator noise predator noise predator noise”. It’s been lodged in my brain ever since.
That idea also works within Sal’s frame of what makes a good predator story that it’s another story and then the predator shows up. Imagine the terminator is doing what it does and then a predator appears and it thinks it’s Dutch and it’s like the life mate of the one he killed
Hey, Comic Pop! Not sure y'all remember me, but I did a mock interview with you the Saturday of San Diego Comic Con by DSTLRY Comics (the annoying guy with so many questions). The same guy who knew nothing about your channel (call me a heathen!). I hope you all are doing well and it was a pleasure to meet you. I'm glad I was exposed to your channel and more than look forward to your future content. Than you so much for being so cool to talk to and being willing to talk to someone that knew nothing about the channel. Anyway, thank you all for being so cool. Looking forward to your future content. That and pestering you with questions in the future (potentially). Kind regards, Jerrett, aka Jet
Speaking as someone who works at a furrier, the cold storage area is merely to preserve the coats that have already been made in a low humidity and low temperature environment in the off season months. It preserves the skins more or less. Also it’s typical for a furrier to clean the coats and add essential oils into the skins so they don’t biodegrade. The pelts that arrive to the store are usually already opened up and treated usually by either a trapper or a tanner and then those pelts are sold at auction to the various fur houses across the globe
Black Panther vs. Predator? And then, right after I typed that I looked it up to find out, yeah, they're about to release that in a couple weeks. When that gets collected, it'd be their...third...Black Panther comic.
1:52:16 The next Predator movie that's separate from the Prey sequel is called Badlands. Dan Trachtenberg (Prey) is going to direct it and it will be set in the distance future
They should have had a predator show up during knightfall. I imagine a Sal-based Predator seeing Azreal Batman and being truly depressed and annoyed st his time being wasted. Then scalping Jean Paul out of spite.
I'm so hung up on what could've been. Would be so awesome to see Freeze go toe to toe with a Predator. Like batman in BVP1. There's a pitch I could get behind.
It's so funny how the fact that predators could live for hundreds of years is the most unbelievable part to you guys XD Like- We have species on earth that can do that too, hell, Lobsters are effectively immortal as long as they keep shedding and we can DEFINITELY kill those guys with rocks lol
Ngl Black panther vs predator sounds like one of those thing that’s cool but T’Chala like entirely out classes the predator that it should be the predator being hunted by a catman
@@accidentalmadness1708 I mean, Death Battle has done some more grossly outclassed matches (Deadpool vs. Mask, Omni-Man vs. Homelander) than Black Panther/Predator.
In another universe, Batman turns to Robin at the beginning of the book and tells him “I’ve seen this before and you’re not ready for it. I need you to stay close until it’s over.”
That first BVP video you guys did got me through a psych paper. Sad we'll never get more crossovers but who knows. Also, I can't help but notice some additions to the wall in the background. How very interesting.
25:14 I always say you can tell with Darth Vader in comics who is pausing the movies, who is using the action figures, and who is using their replica of his helmet
Between this and Batman vs predator 2 this is the one I like more as even after reading the second one and watching your video on it I can not remember a dang thing that happens in that story.
33:00 I feel Ethan's point on AvP just like Freddy vs Jason your protagonist is people but they stop mattering as soon as your act 3 bad guy vs bad guy fight starts
The worst part about the Batman-Predator crossovers, after the first one, to me is that they never got a chance to properly use the Batman universe. Seeing a Predator fight the rogues could be interesting! The Predator wading through a jungle-like green house that Poison Ivy made, filled with man-eating plants! The Predator having an implied previous battle with Ra's Al Ghul, or hunting Killer Croc in Gotham's sewers. If you want to be really indulgent, I wouldn't be too opposed to the Joker being hunted through an elaborate hall of mirrors by the Predator
29:40 funny you mention that. If I recall correctly, Morrison did write a Predator story. I think it was for an old Xbox game, and the story was so boring, then so crazy, and it ends up being awesome. So I think they'd be down for writing more Predator stuff
Gotta put my foot down, Prey is genuinely so good. And the OG Predator is good for a few good reasons and a few funny reasons. So they aren’t allll bad films
@@comicpop I knew I should’ve waited, sorry I was an asshole! Great episode tho, and I hope you guys cover more crossovers in the future. I know they don’t perform well but with growing up reading the Amalgam comics and watching Freddy vs Jason I grew such a soft spot for that kind of stuff. Especially when they’re just the right amount of bad
12:44 When I was in high school (88-92) a teacher was talking about gangs and couldn't think of a word and one of the girls in the class helped out. It went something like this... Teacher : "It was like that scene from West Side Story where the two sides were getting ready to have their ...um..fight...rumble...um..." Student : "Gangbang?" Hijinks ensued. I don't think gangbanging is what was being done in the comic. :) Cheers.
Yuatja are similar to reptiles, unless disease, accident, or violence is involved they live centuries.We know that the greyback elder from Predator 2 is at least 200 year old due to expanded material for the film.
Seeing the Predator wield that antique gun at least makes me happy that Chuck Dixon is referencing one of my favorite Predator movies, "The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly Motherf"""ker".
We're so lucky to have you here, man.
@@comicpop I am honored, sir. And I feel lucky to be a part of this amazing community you fostered!
You see, in this world, there's two types of Predators, my friend. Those with loaded plasma casters and those who get skinned. You get skinned
I personally loved the Predator movie "For A Few Spinal Columns More."
I enjoy the underated original film, a fist full of skulls, but hey that's me!!!!
Sal's disdain for 20th centuary comics is perfectly symbolized by the Predator on set placed on the marvel shelf next to "How to draw comics the Marvel way"
I’m a simple man. I see a video about Terminator, Alien, Predator or Star Wars then I smash that like button and put it on repeat.
Same but with Tiffany
I want to see Kraven the Hunter vs Predator. Seems like a natural pairing.
Every time Sal covers a Predator book I just want to eventually have a Predator story written by him come out. It would be epic and blow the current marvel series out of the water.
He is writing a Terminator back up story.
@@michaelhausman8360 I saw and I’m actually really excited to read it.
I’m super excited for you Sal I’ll definitely be checking out your Terminator back ups!
My dad got me this when I was about 6, its the first exposure to either Batman or Predator so it holds a truly special place in my heart.
I'm so glad that you guys survived the encounter with the demons at the taco shop in the rain the other day. I hope your flip flops are unscathed.
@@Vizbot A taco shop with demons? What kinda place is that, Taco Hell?😁👺🌮
😊😊😊😊😊
"Man..... You know.... What happened??" Managed to sum up how i feel about most things I've loved in less than 20 seconds of video. 😂
The predator’s son after this trip “I don’t believe in anything anymore man. I’m going to become a lawyer.”
Just came from a job interview and now I get to listen to Batman Predator?! What an awesome Wednesday
Well I hope this isn't an omen...
The Cream-Dream Man and the Birthday Boy are the most devious of Gotham’s rogues.
How could you forget about the Jizzler?
All the gun flashback managed to do was make me want a Jonah Hex vs Predator comic
Whenever Ben impersonates Predator talking through clicks, I laugh a little. If only he added a "grrrrrr" (like how Perry The Platypus would usually talk), that would be even more funnier😂😂😂😂. Keep it up, guys. Love the work.
"Father, I will become the crow!"
You call it “Predators of the Caribbean”
Bravo good sir.🤝

I wish a Terminator vs Predator comic would have been made when Dark Horse had them.
That idea also works within Sal’s frame of what makes a good predator story that it’s another story and then the predator shows up.
Imagine the terminator is doing what it does and then a predator appears and it thinks it’s Dutch and it’s like the life mate of the one he killed
AVP vs Terminator is certainly not great.
@@DanV900 that's true!

Harold the Hunchback might not be the hero that ComicPop wants, but he’s damn sure the reoccurring character that this channel deserves.
30:57 i love how Sal pauses when he says "you have to deal with a lot...from.." as he attempts to stifel years of trauma
HAROLD MENTIONED LET’S GOOO 🏎️🤐
But now we can see the amazing super anticipated crossover of Iron man vs predator
Black Panther vs. Predator? And then, right after I typed that I looked it up to find out, yeah, they're about to release that in a couple weeks. When that gets collected, it'd be their...third...Black Panther comic.
"Crows are a cowardly and superstitious bird"
-Jonathan Crane, probably
The Trilogy is complete
My ice cream man was called Captain Hook because when he was 16 and working on a farm, he lost a hand and then got a hook as a replacement.
Wait... One of the predators hunted during the wild west... AND THERE WAS NO JONAH HEX INVOLVED?! Madness!
Pour one out for our homie Harold Allnut.
May he continue to Allnut with the Angels.
Batman vs predator is really awesome and badass and seeing Batman kick a predator ass and winning is really cool and amazing in my opinion.
1:52:16 The next Predator movie that's separate from the Prey sequel is called Badlands. Dan Trachtenberg (Prey) is going to direct it and it will be set in the distance future
Batman: Robin I don't know how many times I have to tell you, you are NOT the Boy Target. I got this.
They should have had a predator show up during knightfall. I imagine a Sal-based Predator seeing Azreal Batman and being truly depressed and annoyed st his time being wasted. Then scalping Jean Paul out of spite.
I'm so hung up on what could've been. Would be so awesome to see Freeze go toe to toe with a Predator. Like batman in BVP1. There's a pitch I could get behind.
Man, when they show that flashback where the Predator gets his six shooter, the chance to have a Predator meet Jonah Hex was right there!
Hot take: Terminator Salvation, pretty good. At least they tried something different
Its never a bad time to listen to Sal rant and rave about Predator. Get this man a Predator meeting asap!
59:14 Now I need a Predator vs Turtle movie 😂
WOOOOOOOOOO, I just watched BvP’s episode too lmao
It's so funny how the fact that predators could live for hundreds of years is the most unbelievable part to you guys XD
Like- We have species on earth that can do that too, hell, Lobsters are effectively immortal as long as they keep shedding and we can DEFINITELY kill those guys with rocks lol
A missed opportunity to talk about a possibile Predator vs TMNT
For future predator movie titles, I always thought Apex Predator would be a good one.
Oh boy, Did I feel Sal’s opening statement about the abusive relationship that is being a Predator fan.
as a long time fan, just want you to all know how much these mean to me. keep being awesome comicpop
I hope you guys do Hickman's FF one day. anyway always fun to watch back issue! thank you for doing this every week!
The next predator best be on a pirate ship is all I'm saying.
I am so surprised they made so many of these
Ngl Black panther vs predator sounds like one of those thing that’s cool but T’Chala like entirely out classes the predator that it should be the predator being hunted by a catman
T’Chala could be hunting the predator down because it killed some of his people?
@@accidentalmadness1708 I mean, Death Battle has done some more grossly outclassed matches (Deadpool vs. Mask, Omni-Man vs. Homelander) than Black Panther/Predator.
Hey Sal! Congratulations on the Terminator back up! I look forward to buying it!
In another universe, Batman turns to Robin at the beginning of the book and tells him “I’ve seen this before and you’re not ready for it. I need you to stay close until it’s over.”
That first BVP video you guys did got me through a psych paper. Sad we'll never get more crossovers but who knows. Also, I can't help but notice some additions to the wall in the background. How very interesting.
18:44 no joke, immediately after Sal said “and Batman’s like” I got an ad that started with “sup virgin”
I literally said aloud *almost two hours this is like the best thing ever!* not even lying
25:14 I always say you can tell with Darth Vader in comics who is pausing the movies, who is using the action figures, and who is using their replica of his helmet
Ok now I wanna see you guys do Gotham Central!
Will you guys make at some point video about batman year 100?
This was a hoot as always, thanks team!
All 3 of those shirts are really awesome ngl
Between this and Batman vs predator 2 this is the one I like more as even after reading the second one and watching your video on it I can not remember a dang thing that happens in that story.
10:47 ...NEWMAN!
Cannot wait for Sal's insights on 2 Predator 2 Prey
In 1998, I would like to believe that they used Mr. Freeze as a pseudo-reunion between Arnold and a Predator.
I hope we get more dc/alien/predator crossover episodes in the future. I mean I hope there’s more to cover.
5:23 at first I thought Sal said something like "yuck-jaw"
Sal, they made Predator on a pirate ship already. It was called The Last Voyage of the Demeter
So glad I finished the episode woth how do like them apples as the tag line for the predator: good will hunting hahaha
Sweet new Back Issues on my birthday
Personally, i would have said Newman instead of Dennis Nedry.
Sal: what happened to you Batman vs Predator books, you used to be a series I could trust lol
The Seinfeld Batman? Now that's a Batman Who Laughs!!
* *Seinfeld theme plays* *
Wooooo Batman Predator!
Hey Sal, any chance you guys cover acts of vengeance in the future?
Yes
1.17 -> The sword in the catcave trophy room is Deathstroke's sword (Batman captured it in a Chuck Dixon story from 1997)
33:00 I feel Ethan's point on AvP just like Freddy vs Jason your protagonist is people but they stop mattering as soon as your act 3 bad guy vs bad guy fight starts
Was expecting the young predator to do the paper bag on head like sylvester's son does in the cartoons
Third times a charm they say!
Predator vs Matt Damon would sell tickets
MATT DAMON.
The worst part about the Batman-Predator crossovers, after the first one, to me is that they never got a chance to properly use the Batman universe.
Seeing a Predator fight the rogues could be interesting!
The Predator wading through a jungle-like green house that Poison Ivy made, filled with man-eating plants! The Predator having an implied previous battle with Ra's Al Ghul, or hunting Killer Croc in Gotham's sewers.
If you want to be really indulgent, I wouldn't be too opposed to the Joker being hunted through an elaborate hall of mirrors by the Predator
14:47 Hypercrime maybe? Nah, that's probably something Grant Morrison deals with, not Gotham police.
Predator vs pirates
Darkhorse Predator was great, arguably the best Predator content till Prey.
This wasn’t so much as a comic discussion as it is Sal airing grievances and the predator franchise and I don’t blame him
I’d like to see a planet of the apes versus predator and aliens. Also 8ball is drug slang.
Yeah, we know. But there's not a lot of gangs going around naming themselves after the thing they sell or do.
@@comicpop Well yeah, The Crack Dealers would be a bit too on the nose.
My new gang, the Heroin Needles
I seriously wish we could have had a Animated movies of Batman vs Predator
And Batman vs Aliens
Such a missed opportunity
Everything I know about the Predator is without my choice or desire.
29:40 funny you mention that. If I recall correctly, Morrison did write a Predator story. I think it was for an old Xbox game, and the story was so boring, then so crazy, and it ends up being awesome. So I think they'd be down for writing more Predator stuff
Idea. Predator vs Winter Soldier set during the cold war.
Gotta put my foot down, Prey is genuinely so good. And the OG Predator is good for a few good reasons and a few funny reasons. So they aren’t allll bad films
Come back when you get to that part of the episode
@@comicpop I knew I should’ve waited, sorry I was an asshole! Great episode tho, and I hope you guys cover more crossovers in the future.

No worries at all!
Forbush Man and Bat-Mite Vs Predator and Al Pacino from Kramer vs Kramer, coming this fall
12:44 When I was in high school (88-92) a teacher was talking about gangs and couldn't think of a word and one of the girls in the class helped out. It went something like this...

So… what you’re saying is that the Batmobile lost its wheel and Mr Freeze got away… Hey?!
That helicopter sounds like a war crime 😲😆
Can't wait for sal in the gang to do a back issues on the terminator book that sal is writing
Predator on a pirate ship with Ninja Turtles!
Not related but RIP Benny cuz I know he would enjoy this episode
Yautja!

Sal looks like if Comicstorian and Comics Explained had a baby lol
Mega crime? Ultra crime? Maximum over crime!
