It really gets confusing on who is and isn’t canon, for at this point I allow it to be canon for we can understand so much more about the Yautja Society and amazing backstories of them.
Is Elder considered a Pirate Predator Class?

What be his moniker?
Idk compared to other comics where the Predator dies, I’d say this was a good comic with the Predator living and giving a good explanation behind the ending of Predator 2

Official canon is just what happens/we see in the movies
all the rest is EU (expanded universe), and we can like to think it’s canon or not, for our own personal view of the lore (I do it too for some stuff).

Ahhhhh okay wow I never really thought of it in that way, kinda sucks though that what ever is canon is WHATS on the big screen……because you know a certain 2018 movie.

Yeah. The only thing 2018 did that was horrible at least for the game I guess was show that avp is canon in the predator universe since the xeno tail spear was in the movie and maybe scars mask I don’t remember if it was his

Only the actual movies are canon, the rest is EU (expanded universe)
for the Alfa the thing is more complex, because the book he appears in is not canon at all (and also says a lot of wierd stuff fans didn’t really like), and his story was then modified in the collaboration between PHG and NECA, it takes inspiration from the books but changes stuff;
so we have two versions, the Alfa of the books and the Alfa from NECA lore and PHG,
both not canon officially,
both could be canon in your personal lore and tastes.

Yeah, making the AVP canon hat was the only good thing that movie did
oh and Fugitive is badass too, for my tastes at least, sadly he dies awfully in a such stupid-ass way.
RIP best boy.

That wasn’t Scar’s mask, strangely enough it was the Jungle Hunters that should have been destroyed in the self destruction blast. Also under the Xeno Spear is City Hunters Combistick I noticed which was a nice detail.

Well isn’t Hunting grounds canon? Also I didn’t know he was in a book? Are you referring to the book that mentions the hish being predator ?

I did like the fugitive as well just hated the upgrade. The only thing I disliked about the fugitive is that he has human dna. To me if they were gonna say predators are using dna from their prey should’ve only been for a particular clan that didn’t follow the honor code anymore and not try to say it was the species as a whole.

Yes they should be the books were the “hish” word was used
PHG is not canon sadly, but it does his best to “seems canon”.

I thought that book was entirely separate and the made the alpha as the “canon” version of that and I guess just the prequel book to hunting grounds made me think it was canon.

Yo that kinda sucks PHG’s isn’t canon! It really does kinda fill in the gaps in some parts of the Predator lore from the movies 🥲

It’s just “another version of the character”, still from the expanded universe
image for example if a new Predator movie it’s made, and Alfa is in the movie, they show his story and it’s differently from BOTH the version we got (PHG and books)
in such situation that would be the only canon version
(I know it’s probably impossible to see Alfa in a movie, it was as said just an example)
