Pictures from the San Diego Comic Con have started filtering onto the internet and of particular note to us Aliens and Predator fans is this one:

20090722 New AvP Comic - Three World War

It is from the Dark Horse section of the con and is the first we’ve seen to do with the Aliens vs Predator series that was announced by Dark Horse. No other details about the series are known other than that John Arcudi is writing it. Thanks to X-SOLDIER for the news.

As well as this, Aliens #2 is in stores today. Dark Horse posted a preview earlier this week. Also look out for our review of Predator #1 soon and an interview with the editor of the comics, Chris Warner.

EDIT: Comic Book Resources have just posted up an article about the new series, complete with art and details. Thanks to VikingSpawn for the tip.

I KNOW!! I thought I was crazy, but it says there is a third film coming up. I havn't seen any of the new comics, just got Omnibus 2 of AVP and deadliest of the species is the lamest comic EVER!! As bad as Resurection! But I am surprised so many disliked the second AVP, I think it was pretty good and gave me that awesome feeling of watching an 80's movie. Who knows, maybe it'll be like the second series of Star Wars, save the best for last

Ugh! I hate the new "tusk" on the aliens. Not needed at all. The article also talks about how AvP 3 is slated for 2010. Hopefully more will be revealed at Comicon.

No, they're on leashes... Wasn't the whole point of 'Alien Resurrection' that they could never be conditioned or controlled, only quarantined?

Predator chains? This is something new... ...I really hope he's using the chains as a weapon against those xenos, and not a leash, like it kinda looks like...

There're no comic stores out in the mountains, half-past nowhere. I suppose I could go through the Internet, though. Thanks.

I wouldn't know Cetanu. Surely there's a comic book shop near you. Or failing that, there's the internet.

Would I be able to buy the Aliens comics at somewhere like Borders or B&N? About this news: LOOKS COOL!

Well this seems good and dandy... Lets just hope they keep with the formula which the original AvP comics left us, but with new touches.
