Predators to Get Comic Prequel, Sequel and Adaptation

[dude]

The folks at Dark Horse are set to dig deep into the Predator/s universe with what appear to be the first set of canonical comic books. In an interview with Ambush Bug over at Ain't It Cool News writers Paul Tobin, Marc Andreyko, and David Lapham had the following to say:

BUG: So these are prequels to the film set to be released this summer. How much do they tie into the previous PREDATOR films we've all seen?

DL: I’m actually doing a prequel and a sequel, so I get to kind of bookend the thing. What we get to do is expand on the experience. In the movie, you get to see these characters during their specific adventure. In the comics we can really dive further into what makes them tick and why things play out like they do in the movie. And we can show what badasses they were before. Then, on the other end, with the sequel, I get to further expand the concept of the movie and it’s possibilities going forward.

BUG: Without giving too much away, what are each of your prequel stories about?

PT: Mine is about 60% movie adaptation, and the rest of it deals with a past incident in one of the main character's life, and how it led her, in a way, to where she is now.

Isabelle. Alice Braga's character. She's probably going to get second billing behing Brody.

Surely Fishburne will. He's in C.S.I and that's a pretty big show.
