Shoehorning in a half-@$$ Berserker sequel was perhaps the biggest mistake though.

I didn't even know AvP was an actual thing until I saw the cover that day. It kickstarted my obsession with the comics and graphic novels so its a pretty special memory. That first issue blew my mind, it was bliss lol. Then the rest of the series was just not the same even though I still thought it was cool. (I actually missed out on the 3rd issue and didnt aqcuire it for another 15 years lol). Not long after I started picking up the Dark Horse Classics reprint of AvP with the bad cover art, at the same grocery store. Then I got Aliens: Outbreak TPB and it just kept snowballing from there. I'll tell you it was not easy collecting alien/predator stuff as a kid in the 90's, especially in a rural area. I remember ordering comics in the mail, took months lol.
I'll never forget how much I loved that first issue of AvP War though.
Yes, the whole "reluctant warrior" persona is definitely contrary to her mindful decision to join in the first place. I think that glossing over does a disservice to her, imo. She got bit by the badasstitude and wanted more!
I think that was inevitable, but I still feel the journey missed seeing her actual enjoying what she did. I mean we see in War #0 that shes still f**king badass, but she's not shown as enjoying her decision. I'm hoping we actually get to visit that year at some point.

But I like that this comic essentualy said " f**k you " to what you expected after reading first AvP. No matter how hard Machiko try, no matter what she do - she can't be a Predator, she still a human, they won't accept her 'cause of that and there's no two ways about it .
NOOOOOOOOOO !

Going to grab the popcorn and geek out to that one.
Used to thrash the sh*t out of AVP-2 Multiplayer during 2008 (reminded by avp-requiem) and then 2012 (reminded by prometheus).
Be sure to mention
- talk of primal hunt
- saviour mod
- maybe set a date for a avp-2 saviour mod avp-g reunion deathmatch?
