Batman beats Arnold (as Mr. Freeze)
Arnold beats Predator

HENCE: Batman beats Predator.

It's only logic, people!

Which also means that Batman (with the help of a single black chick) beats a whole assload of Aliens. And since a whole assload of Aliens beats a unit of heavily armed Space Marines, Batman could take out a whole unit of heavily armed Space Marines, as long as he teamed up with a black chick.

And yet, Batman required Alfred's help to actually beat the damn Predator. (See Batman Vs. Predator miniseries.)

So maybe it's actually Alfred who's the key ingredient?

Yah, but Alfred's his valet, his aide, his... batman, if you will. No shame in relying on such a stalwart gentleman's gentleman.

Can't make it tonight. I don't know if Robin's calling people, but I emailed him last night.

NP. His post today seemed to indicate all would go forward. I'll call before I head out in any case.

Reminds me of a DC comic RPG I played once. I made a character Super Hero called "The Hunter" and was pretty much a combination of the Predator and Batman.

Son of a wealthy Naturalist father and Marine Biologist mother, while the family was on an expidition to a South American rainforest, his parents were killed by poachers. Fleeing he stumbled across the helmet and shoulder cannon of the Predator that Ahnold fought. He escaped and returned to America with the mask and cannon and took it to a genius/engineer friend of the family who made all of his mom's submarines, diving suits etc. Who helped him modify and adapt the design into a new suit which kinda looked like a blue hunting cat with black stripes. The tail acted like the Predators cannon, only launching taizer darts instead.

It was a pretty cool superhero to play for a while. But I just read your post and couldn't help share a "geek-gamer" moment.

That's an interesting character concept. The mother sounds a bit Costeau.

I find, in cases like that, interpretive dance works well.
