Penned by Ben Percy, this five-issue slugfest pits a Predator King against Marvel's finest—from heroes to villains. Marvel veteran Marcelo Ferreira, fresh off their work on vs. Spider-Man, is on board to bring the chaos to life. Deadly Vibranium, stolen by the Yautja in the vs. Black Panther saga, will be the game changer, making the Predator even with the powerhouses like Spider-Man and the X-Men.
"Queue the suspenseful music—that title's no misdirection," Percy teased, "Watch your favorites crash and burn as new alliances rise against this extinction-level event. Earth's been nominated as a Predator playground."
