Marvel Studios Prepares for Clash with Predator in Upcoming IP Conflict
Get ready to witness the carnage as Marvel's finest take on the fearsome Predator! After tussles with the likes of Black Panther, Wolverine, and Spider-Man (who's battles start this week), the interdimensional hunter grabs its next prey in Predator Kills the Marvel Universe!
This five-issue extravaganza comes from talented writer Ben Percy, fresh from vs. Spider-Man, with art by Marcelo Ferreira. The story unfolds as a Predator King steps onto the battlefield against Marvel's best and worst.
In a chat with IGN, Percy hinted at a ripple effect from previous stories. "The title's not a trick," he shared. "Our favorite heroes and villains will meet their maker—even as some rise to challenge this extinction-level event. The world's now a hunting preserve."
Remember when the Predator stole Vibranium from Wakanda in vs. Black Panther? Well, that stash will come into play, leveling the playing field for the Predator against Spider-Man, mutants, and more heavyweights of the Marvel Universe.[1][3]
Percy left us with a jaw-dropping teaser: "Every character's on the chopping block. No one's safe. Armor up." So buckle up and brace yourself for a brutal showdown, as heroes fall and new ones rise in the face of this terrifying invasion.[2]
Predator Kills the Marvel Universe drops on August 13.
