The 25 Most Influential People in Comic Book Movies: #6 Mike Richardson
So you saw a sci-fi or fantasy movie, and it featured some off-the-wall characters, and maybe you thought it was entertaining, and it got some hype, but you didn’t realize until later that it was a comic book movie. There’s a good chance that it was produced by Mike Richardson, the president of the world’s third largest comic book publisher, Dark Horse Comics. Since 1986, Dark Horse has been a beacon for restless artists and writers fleeing the ranks of Marvel and DC wishing to make a na
Her şey Sıtkı Sıyrıl‘ın Gölge E-Dergi‘de yayınlanan “Neden kızlar çizgi roman okumaz?” adlı yazısı ile başladı. Tartışma bir sonraki sayıda kadınların cevapları ile ilerledi. Ortalık kan gölüne döndü (mecazi anlamda tabii). Peki ya kadınlar niye aksiyon filmlerinde kahraman olamaz? hiç düşündünüz mü? Ne kadar sayıca az örnekleri olsa da tabii ki de olabilirler ve olmalıdırlar. Sinema tarihinin en önemli kadın kahramanı hiç şüphesiz ki Sigourney Weaver‘ın ete kemiğe büründürdüğü Alien serisi

Alien vs. Predator, or Aliens versus Predator (both titles abbreviated AvP), is a science fiction / horror fiction series spanning several forms of media. The series is a crossover between two famous film franchises about extraterrestrial beings: the Aliens and the Predators. In Alien vs. Predator, the two species are in conflict with one another.
History
The idea for such a crossover is often thought to have originated from a Xenomorph's skull being seen as one of the Predator's trophies in the film Predator 2, but Dark Horse Comics published their first Alien vs. Predator story in November 1989, one year before the November 1990 release of Predator 2.
Currently, the Alien vs. Predator universe consists of a range of media including comics, novels, computer/video games, and feature films, the rights to which all belong to 20th Century Fox Studios.

Action figures
In 1994, Kenner released a collection of action figures known as Aliens vs. Predator. This followed the two initial series of Aliens which were actually based on an animated series, Operation: Aliens, that was never broadcast. As such, the inclusion of Predator is often considered the 3rd and 4th series of the Aliens line. This collection includes several Aliens, many of which feature built-in attack features, and Predators, which include removable masks and battle weapons such as spears and missile launchers. The figures generally possess 5 points of articulation, and some include a mini Dark Horse comic book.
While the collection as a whole is known as Aliens vs. Predator, the two character types have their own card art that only features the character at hand. An exception would be the Aliens vs. Predator 2-pack. Since human space marines were included in the initial Aliens line, the Predator was marketed as an alternative enemy to the Aliens. A figure cardback reads:
The Aliens: Hive Wars series was released in 1995, which included various Aliens, Predators, and larger scaled space marines. More figures, including a female Predator and an Alien/Predator/Smash Mason 3-pack, were designed for this series but never released as part of the line.
Six sets of Aliens and Predator Micro Machines were also planned by Galoob in 1995 but never released. This would have also included the LV-426/Outer World Station Action Fleet Playset. Thanks in part to the research of toy collectors, many photos of these unreleased toys and prototypes have shown up on the Web in recent years.
In December 2002, McFarlane Toys released a highly detailed Alien vs. Predator deluxe set. In 2004, they produced a series of figures based on the Alien vs. Predator film. This line, however, is notorious for its disastrously poor quality. Many accessory parts originally planned for inclusion were suddenly scrapped before their release, leaving the figures with shoddy and incomplete display bases. In addition, some figures even had broken parts within their packages. Alongside the articulated figures, McFarlane also released statuesque display sets depicting scenes from the film. Hot Toys has been releasing highly detailed 16' long alien vs. predator action figures, for some time, from every movie including Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem, this are sold to a high price, NECA has released two series of 'Aliens vs. predator: Requiem' action figures also.

Sandy Collora's 2003 fan film Batman: Dead End includes both the Xenomorphs and Yautja. The film is roughly based on Batman, Alien and Predator crossover comic books.
Note on naming: Most recent AvP media and the earlier computer games use the singular form and the abbreviation, viz.: Alien vs. Predator. By contrast, the novels use the plural (Aliens vs. Predator), while the later computer games use the plural and unabbreviated "versus" (Aliens versus Predator). The comics vary between the latter two.
