What universes are Predators canon?

[Thunderjack88]

Hey all!

So in order to get colour schemes for Predators a I have dived in to multiple Vs Predator comics. It got me thinking what universe has Predator been in (any format) that it could be cannon without destroying the current canon.

So here's a few that I think could work and why.

Predator standard universe

AvP Universe & Fire and stone reboot universe

DC/Batman /Superman universe - Aliens as shown my Superman are not a foreign concept and in all encounters the Predator is defeated with Batman hoping a humiliation would stop their visits to Gotham.  No major characters to my knowledge were killed also so this helps its place in cannon.

Tarzan universe - This one is a simple vs fight scenario where Tarzan beats the strange hunter with no further outcomes affecting his timeline. As with the Predator timeline the fights are mostly isolated (in the jungle etc) so Predators are only know to a handful of people as do you remember the strange visitor.

Judge Dredd/2000 AD universe - Perharps the easiest fit, Predator standard plot lands in a universe where alien visitors are not abnormal. Predator only kills cannon folder judges and villains for the story and gets defeated by Dredd who sees it as a Alien killer breaking the law.

So there is a handful what universes would you state Predator confirmed as canon?

*Canon.

I only consider alien-predator related stuff as canon.

Thanks it's always the simple ones that slip past my dyslexia and end up changing the context of my posts.

This is more of just a what universes could include their predator content and themselves remain canon. (Personal preference for me is the Predator leading onto AvP fire and stone universe being canon).

One that doesn't make the cut is Archie (Archie vs Predator) as our Yautja got through the main cast pretty good altering the timeline. Plus I shudder that the ending is canon.

Archie vs Predator rules all.

More than DotS?

DotS isn't even the same sport.

Perhaps it simply warrants further analysis.

My head exploded.

[The Old One]

Yeah, it's too much.

For me, there's just canon, non-canon and my head canon.

[Frosty Venom]

Yeah, it's too much.

For me, there's just canon, non-canon and my head canon.

Well we can call that my head canon if you like. But Alien/Predator/AVP is the official canon imo.

I agree. These are three official canons, each one working in its own official universe

Which canon does this fall in?

That 💎 belongs to the Predator main canon. On the other hand, Shane Black's Straucesque flick is a nice addition to the Strauceverse.
