Books/Comics Horror Comics?
Hello, what are some of the most horror leaning Predator comics? I love the action blockbuster and occasional space opera elements of the franchise but right now I'm mostly just looking for ones that lean more into the horror of the franchise!
Hit me with as many recommendations as you want!
Much appreciated!

Bad Blood is a great slasher type horror story.
I would also say the Fire And Stone series as well as Life And Death have alot of horror elements as it deals mainly with the Black Goo from Prometheus and it was interesting to see how it infected a Yautja.
Skinner from the Spider-Man crossover is also ideal but frankly, that crossover story was so bad that Id stay away from it imo. Which is a shame cause Skinner is like a space version of Leatherface lol.
AVP Deadspace is another recommendation. It dabbles with isolation in space with Xenomorphs and Yautja alike.
These are my personal recommendations from the lineup of comics for the Predator franchise that lean moreso towards the horror aspects. The rest are more slasher/action storylines so I dont know if you want to check the rest of the comic lineup and see what you think.

The old Dark Horse comics, the very first Aliens vs Predator story was serious stuff at the time.

In all honesty, I think the most horror aspect for a Predator comic is actually one of the latest comics releases for the character. Predator vs Spiderman. The Predator in that is very brutal and it definitely has some horror elements in it.
