Questions for Bryan Thomas Schmidt -If It Bleeds/Ultimate Prey/Eyes of the Demon

[Corporal Hicks]

We're going to be chatting to Bryan Thomas Schmidt, the editor of all the Predator anthologies and author of the Harrigan and Dutch shorts, as well the Brazilian themed one in the AvP book. As always, if you've got any specific questions feel free to throw them up.

Why so many stories allowed set on Earth?

Brand synchronisation?

[Wweyland]

Was it difficult to keep "in sync" with the Predator: Hunting Grounds video game and "Stalking Shadows"?

[Blackdawn]

Are there going to be future anthology books similar to "Eyes of the Demon"?

[Mr.Turok]

Is it possible that we can get new stories inspired from the recent story of Predator: Hunting Grounds?

Seeing how you done both stories on Dutch and Harrigan, have they ever met at some point in their life to discuss their Predator encounters? It's hard for me to see Dutch ignore a fellow survivor.

Was there anything new that you wanted to add into your stories into the Predator series that couldn't make the cut due to time constraints or other factors?

What made Garber retire from OWLF? He seemed really dedicated to the cause just as much as Peter Keyes, especially after going through all what occurred in the second Predator film so it was sort of odd that he dropped from the group.

Thank you for your time and I can't wait to read more future stories!

[Wweyland]
