Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Not what I expected
Aliens vs. Predator: Thrill of the Hunt was NOT what it seems. The dialogue was terrible, the art just O.K., it's in digest size, it's not the fine quality storytelling the comics used to be,(see Aliens vs. Predator Omnibus volume 1) and it didn't have much action. It starts off good, put starts to lag and becomes a mess. The characters are two-dimensional,and the reader feels like they should be killed(I'm on that side). For a while there's no action, and when the action start it feels rushed, and ... Read More
Rating: - Graphic SF Reader
Digest sized production. A garden variety type story. It seems it is supposed to be 100 years or so post Ripley, there are very few human colonies left. A corporate expedition takes a ship to try and rebuild one. They find a Predator, lock him up, as he is unconscious. They fail to treat him with respect. He lures them to a bunch of Aliens, hoping the humans will get rid of them for him. Many people die.
Rating:  - great comic
thrill of the hunt does a great job of following the movie and the comic origins of avp. this perticullar comic has great art and an amazing original story.
Rating:  - Worse AVP Aliens title ever
By far the worse title, doesnt compare to the others at all. Poorly written, poor story, waste of money, sorry.
Rating:  - A solid read but lacks depth
Like the accompanying movie, Alien vs. Predator: Thrill of the Hunt looks nice but ultimately fails to grip the reader. That's not to say that the comic is without merit, but the cons outweigh the pros. The story is well composed, and the action is faced paced and fun, but eventually the whole thing runs out of steam and starts repeating itself. Roger Robinson tries hard to encapsulate the reader by reassuring them that the end will be spectacular, but it dosn't quite match the high expectations I had ... Read More
