From the ‘90s to the early ‘2000s, a series of crossovers captured readers’ attention. From JLA/Avengers from Kurt Busiek and George Perez to Superman vs. Aliens by Dan Jurgens and Kevin Nowlan to Batman/Judge Dredd: Judgment on Gotham by John Wagner and Alan Grant, there were endless miniseries where iconic worlds collide. With IPs being more guarded than ever these days, those crossovers seemed over. However, with Marvel acquiring the publishing rights to the Predator series, they immediately announced a book fans have long been waiting for: Predator vs. Wolverine.
Benjamin Percy is teaming up with Andrea Di Vito and Greg Land for a new tale that will combine Wolverine’s longstanding Marvel history with the fierce hunters known as Predators. In the comic, Wolverine will come face-to-face with the Yautja, with one of them giving him trouble in the present day. But, the book will also detail a mission Wolverine went under when he was under control by Weapon X, where his secret first meeting with the deadly creatures will be revealed.
Daredevil artist Marco Checchetto draws the series’ main cover, showing a faceoff between Wolverine and a Yautja. The comic will feature variants from Stephen Segovia, Peach Momoko, Steve McNiven, Björn Barends, Skottie Young, and Tyler Kirkham. Additionally, two homage covers come from Dave McKone, which take a new spin on the classic Incredible Hulk book from Todd McFarlane.
The first issue will include 1:25 variants from Alex Maleev (also available as a 1:100 virgin variant) and a 1:50 cover from fan-favorite artist In-Hyuk Lee.
THE THRILL IS THE KILL! The bloodthirsty saga you've been waiting for! Wolverine has lived one of the longest and most storied lives in Marvel Comics history. Now witness the untold greatest battles of Logan's life - against a Predator! One Yautja seeks the greatest prey in existence - and finds it in Weapon X. From the blood-ridden snows of the Canadian wilderness to the sword-slinging streets of Madripor, Wolverine and a Predator break everything in their paths on their way to the ultimate victory…or glorious death. Superstar writer Benjamin Percy brings the bloodiest hunters in all pop culture to their knees!
