Did Fox/DH ever actually say that they were de-canonizing the non AvP predator comics?

I just assumed they decanonized EVERYTHING but the films, I mean it's not unreasonable to assume that since well... back in 2013 they did say they were hard rebooting everything.

I assumed the re-boot only really applied to aliens and somewhat to AvP, the present day Predator stories never really backed themselves into a corner vs the films like aliens did by infesting earth.
They really never did, but yeah the old Predator comics would largely be very easy to re-canonize (and it looks like that's the route they're taking). It helps that 99% of them are set either in "the present" or some point in the past.

Since we're getting returning characters, fingers crossed Maya Bergstrom from Homeworld has a cameo. Probably not, though.

I wonder if the humans tasked with fighting the Preds will be called Spearhead. A Xenogenesis reference would be pretty bold.  :laugh:

The premise reminds me of Freddy versus Jason versus Ash: The Nightmare Warriors. In a good way!

I reckon this will become the focus of "present" Predator comics, while the "future" ones will work with the Aliens and Prometheus comics.

Regarding the re-canonization of some of the old Predator EU, I personally think it would be neat if Dark Horse found some way of re-canonizing some of the old Aliens and AVP EU with the new stuff. Some stuff, like the whole Earth War arc, would obviously have to be ignored though.

We've got another thread about it, but it'd be trivially easy to re-canonize large swaths of the old AvP/Aliens EU. Heck, i wouldn't be surprised if they took the Star Wars Legends approach.

I hope this makes up for Pred vs. Dredd

The fluorescent ink covers sound interesting:
