It goes down mostly how you expect, but its face paced and an easy read. Machiko is given a lot more depth as the book goes on, and particularly when she teams up with the lead Predator, Dachande, its a really fun read. There's also a scene where someone tries to rape her and its mostly just shrugged off and forgotten later when they have to work together, which is weird.īut its still endearing. The main character Machiko is Japanese, and there is a lot of moments where she is a walking stereotype (she knows martial arts, cares a lot about honor, calls the Predators dragons and samurai, etc.), and the juxtaposition of her and Dachande thinking of honor a lot has the unfortunate implication that her being Japanese is why she understands him and Predator culture. Written by Patrick Aison ( Jack Ryan, Treadstone) and starring Amber Midthunder ( Legion) alongside Dakota Beavers, Stormee Kipp, Michelle Thrush, Julian Black Antelope, and Dane DiLiegro as the Predator, Prey is now available to stream on Hulu.There are some things in here that did not age well. The prey she stalks, and ultimately confronts, turns out to be a highly evolved alien predator with a technically advanced arsenal, resulting in a vicious and terrifying showdown between the two adversaries.
She has been raised in the shadow of some of the most legendary hunters who roam the Great Plains, so when danger threatens her camp, she sets out to protect her people. Based on the critical success of Prey, we can surely look forward to many more Predator movies in the near future - hopefully with Dan Trachtenberg at the helm.įrom 20th Century Studios, Prey is set in the Comanche Nation 300 years ago and tells the story of a young woman, Naru, a fierce and highly skilled warrior. While he did not reveal exactly what these “big swings” will be, it stands to reason that taking different Predators and putting them in a variety of countries and time periods is something that fans would love to see following the direction that Prey has now taken the franchise in.
