In Response To: Bungie Rip-Offs, Revisited (Beer Can) : And give me a break, man: The Hunter is DIRECTLY lifted from PREDATOR (as is
Actually, I've noticed more similarities in creature/baddie design between Marathon and Robotech, a syndicated television show from the mid-eighties. The hunters more resemble the various armor suits featured in the "Southern Cross" portion of the show, while the Juggernauts are almost carbon copies of Invid shock troopers from the "New Generation" portion of the series. [See link below] Note that early versions of Marathon featured walls scrawled with "Grendel Lives!" with the Grendel mask nearby; Comico, publisher of the original Matt Wagner Grendel comics, also first had the rights to the comic adaptations of the Robotech series. Go figure. --AJS |
