Steen Christiansen reviewed Predator by Mark Verheiden (A Dark Horse comics collection)
Review of 'Predator' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
Change of location does little to infuse new ideas. Interesting to see how quickly movie material got adopted.

Decent, but too much of a retread of the first movie. Some preemptive echoes of the movie sequel, though.
Good escapist fun. Not as gruesome as some readers here have suggested, but the book itself does have a label of "Suggested for Mature Readers." So if you are squeamish, maybe not for you. Overall, an entertaining little comic set during the Cold War era where an American detective and a Soviet soldier have to collaborate against some Predators. It is a quick read.
