Not believeable for the Superman Universe ^ I was expecting a little more out of this story line after being let down with the Superman vs Aliens series. I don't understand why they have to make Superman like everyone else in the story (human, weak, etc). I mean, this is "Superman" he shouldn't get mysterious diseases, etc. Now what they should do is take a clue from the Batman vs Predator series, which is true to the Batman character and mystique.
Survival is an Option, Failure is NOT. ^ While it was interesting seeing Superman and the Predator in a comic together, it was also kindof frustrating, because there wasn't anything 'super' about Superman in this comic.
The storyline is very well thought out though. Because if Superman was on Earth, the Predator (I suppose) would DEFINETELY devise a way to deal with him if he were to try to get between them and their prey. In this comic the Predtor is destroying technology not hunting, so it isn't the Hunt that he is on, rather it is a mission to stop scientists from using his technology.
All in all it was a good read for it's uniqueness and it has a few interesting points you learn about the Predator.
Excellent art, terrible story... ^ I picked this one up for the art, knowing it would be a lame story, but it truly exceeded my expectations in its terrible writing. What's the point of Superman without his powers? And why bother pitting him against something just because it's popular if you're going to have to strip him down to do it? Leave the alien stories to Batman, who actually has to outwit and out fight them. Also, everything takes place in what must be the highest traffic area of the Amazon ever...I mean, how many plots do you need to fill out this terrible book? This is slapped together garbage, pure and simple. Great artwork for the most part, though. Gave it an extra star just for that.
good toilet-reading material ^ some of the worst writing i have seen.predictable and boring.you can tell by the art that even maleev,who's doing very nice work for daredevil now,was totally uninspired by the whole story.i pity him and hope he at least got paid well. so bring it to the toilet if you run out of paper.
Another crossover ^ How can a predator have any hope against the man of steel? Give superman an alien virus that is not-so-slowly draining his powers.
In this story Superman and the stars team are researching a mysterious alien ship discovered in central america. Only one man with his own secrets has any idea of who the pilot is. However, a mad scientist steals the energy core, planning to use it to carry out genocide of global proportions.
A classic superman story.
However, things turn ugly when superman catches a space bug and the ship turns out to be a predator ship. A buddy of the deceased pilot shows up, wanting the core back. Things quickly escalate as a traitor turns up, and the predator sets his sights on the strongest of prey, superman.
