That's true, that could be pretty cheesy.

Maybe he'll go out like a badass in the last issue.

Are you suggesting that Ahab would pull off a Machiko Noguchi?  :P

I kind of doubt Ahab would come with us, or if he does, he'd stick out like a sore thumb and governments or corporations would do anything to capture him. He'd have no rights in our society and those that know about Predators would do their best to ensure he doesn't get any rights due to what they do to us.

If he does come with the humans, he'd likely be the Chewbaca to Galgo's Han Solo.

This is all assuming he survives Life and Death.

Yeah, I definitely see an ending like Rage War

with the Preds taking the ship. The only thing I wonder about is whether Ahab will go with them or with the humans.

Thinking on it, I'm pretty sure I know how the last three issues of Life and Death will play out.
Spoiler
The xenos swarm the Marines and Predators, who fight hard and take heavy losses. Then, just when they're on the brink, the Engineer will show up and vaporize the aliens, then fight the remaining Marines and Preds. Foster and company will somehow turn the Juggernaut around the core characters will be rescued. It will end with the Predators taking possession of the Juggernaut in exchange for letting the humans live. The survivors will then nuke LV-223 from orbit before heading home. With Covenant coming DH may want to wrap-up the LV-223 side of things.

That will certainly have a
Spoiler
Rage War feel to it (where the Predators leave with all the goodies) and I can see the Marines nuking LV-223. It'd certainly answer why Weyland-Yutani didn't make future visits to the moon since it's right next door to LV-426.

I doubt we'd be seeing it again in future films, it's told its story in Prometheus, in Fire and Stone and now in Life and Death.

Paradise will now be the next hunting ground!  ;D

Brian Thies will be providing art for the final one-shot issue!

That suits me just fine. I dig Thies' artwork. And another AlienDay release too.

Finally got issue #4 and its more of the same. Underwhelming to say the least and the art is just not working for me. Now its on to Aliens L&D, not much hope going into the at arc.

Crossing my fingers that AvP is good.

Ah ok. I haven't popped the movie in for quite a while. It's not one that gets watched very often in my collection :P

Only his last name is said in the film, but the credits give his first name as Mark.

I thought so. Just couldn't remember if it was just the last name used or the full name on the character.

Yeah, scarface in AVP was called Mark Verheiden.

There's also another Mark mentioned as having written the script. Verheiden? Is this simply a throwback to Book One or is it something new?

Yea I'm pretty sure you're right it's Verheiden. Didn't they name a character that in the AVP movie as well? Nice when they acknowledge the writers from the beginning.
