Wraithblade, I have to ask exactly where are the listed variations sourced from? I've gone and done a google search for any news on reveals for the Predator's variations but none have come up. While Hunter and Warrior are perfectly believable.. the Hish'qu-ten variation is.. hard to swallow and I say this as someone who is a Predator fan and someone who is familiar with the canon.

The Hish were from an EU reboot which John Shirely introduced back in 2005 with the Forever Midnight novels and he has openly stated that he chose to ignore the Yautja concept which Steve Perry introduced in the 1990s. The Hish concept was so unpopular with Predator fans that Fox had went to Dark Horse press and told them to drop the Hish mythos altogether and went back to the Yautja mythos which is generally viewed as canon, where as the Hish mythology is it's own thing.

So.. why would Boon and Netherrealm use an unpopular source which fans didn't appreciate? If Fox told Dark Horse not to use the Hish, why is Netherrealm using that? Did Boon not look at the Yautja mythology which is generally accepted as canon or did he just have the wrong source?
