The Spineprowler is a giant feline Titan that debuted in the 2024 Legendary Comics graphic novel Godzilla x Kong: The Hunted.
Name
The Spineprowler's cryptozoological classification, Ossis Praedator, comes from the Latin words praedator and ossis, which mean "predator" and "bone". It is named after its pronounced spike-like spine.
Design
The Spineprowlers resemble hairless cats. The adults' fur is light brown while the young ones are brighter, though both are covered in darker spots, aside from their underside which is lighter than the rest of the body. Their canines long and the jaw is positioned more forward than other felines', and is therefore more visible. They have spiked tails and very pronounced spike-like spinal vertebrae, long hook-like claws, and appear to have no pupils. The adults have a very slim physique, while the cubs are chubbier and smaller.
Behavior
Monarch describes the Spineprowler's behavior as that of a "destroyer"[1]. They are said to be a very nurturing species, with the apex females being very aggressive when it comes to protecting their young. They appear to hunt by ambushing their prey, as one adult did when attacked Kong, though it fled after being overpowered.
Comics
- Godzilla x Kong: The Hunted (2024)
Godzilla x Kong: The Hunted
While Kong was taking a sip from a lake, a Spineprowler pounced out of a waterfall and attacked Kong. Kong grabbed the Spineprowler's tail and slammed it into the ground. The Spineprowler retreated, but stepped on a mine, launching missiles to paralyze it. On Martin's Island, a Spineprowler was used as a test subject by the Titan Hunter. The Spineprowler tried to scale the wall and escape, but ultimately being killed by the Titan Hunter. As the Titan Hunter was about kill two Spineprowler cubs in the Hollow Earth, their mother pounced on the Titan Hunter and started to attack. The Titan Hunter then used a horn to puncture the Spineprowler, killing her. The cubs ran off into the forest, trying to hide from the Titan Hunter. As the Titan Hunter closed in, Kong arrived to defend them. When the Titan Hunter was destroyed by Kong, Raymond Martin climbed out of the mech and greeted by the two cubs, who killed him.
