| This article is about the alien bounty hunter. For Decepticon subgroup from the tail-end of G1, see Predator (subgroup). |
- A Predator is an alien bounty hunter from the Earthforce portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
The Predator from Yautja has reptilian hands and carries some kind of pistol with a laser-sight. He is not averse to killing for profit.
Fiction
Marvel Comics continuity
These stories do not fit into the normal Marvel continuity. See Earthforce for details.
While Starscream was wandering alone in the Louisiana bayous, a Predator aimed his pistol at Starscream's, er, cockpit. The Predator was intent on claiming the bounty Megatron and Shockwave had put on Starscream's head, but since Starscream survived we may assume the Predator's attempt on his life was unsuccessful. Assassins
Notes
- The Predator was not explicitly named on the cover to issue #284, but in issue #293's letters page Dreadwind confirms the alien's identity.[1]
- Predators are, of course, the primary antagonists of the Predator movie franchise, coincidentally voiced by Peter Cullen.
- Crankcase's design aesthetic draws heavily upon that of the Predator.
