Marvel Comics Announce Predator: Black, White & Blood Anthology!

[Corporal Hicks]

It’s been a while since we last saw the Predator in their own series as our favourite extra-terrestrial big game hunters have been busy hunting down Marvel’s heroes under the guidance of Benjamin Percy.  And though it’s been pretty fun seeing the Predators take on Wolverine and Black Panther, with another crossover with Spider-man due on comic book store shelves at the end of April, we’ve missed the Predator having the spotlight to himself.

Marvel Comics have now announced that Predator will be getting the Black, White and Blood treatment, with the first issue set to release in May!

This May, this epic format spotlights the brutal exploits of the galaxy's most feared hunter in PREDATOR: BLACK, WHITE & BLOOD! Across four blood-soaked issues, the fiercest kills the spaceways have ever seen are brought to life by some of the industry's most exciting talents. Set across different periods of Predator history and featuring a wide variety of Yautja and settings, these stories are must-read for Predator and comics fans alike!

Here's what to expect from the debut issue:

• From the mad imaginings of Joe Kelly (AMAZING SPIDER-MAN, DEADPOOL) and rising artist Álvaro López (CAPTAIN MARVEL, BEWARE THE PLANET OF THE APES) comes a gut-twisting new take on Predator! A young Predator trying to prove himself prowls the Australian frontier, but his hunt goes south when a run-in with a group of humans from a convict colony changes the trajectory of everyone's lives and takes readers on a journey never before seen in the Predator universe!
• Writer Eliot Rahal makes his Marvel Comics debut with artist Brian Level in a bloody retelling of Arthurian legend that blends the horror of Predator's space tech with classic sword and sorcery!
• Writer Sarah Gailey (WHITE WIDOW) and artist Fran Galán (CARNAGE) put the Yautja's honor code to the test in a story of Predator infiltrating an international weapons industry conference!

 

The first issue will come with standard cover art by Simone DiMeo, with variant artwork by Paolo VIllanelli and Mahmud Asrar.

I've been waiting for this! Really love the Alien BWB series, I'm hoping Predator is as strong! I'm especially interested in the Arthurian take. I wonder if Joe Kelly's thing is headlining the series like Utopia did for Alien.

Arthurian Predator sounds sick.

In game AvP Young Predator vs Aliens, WY Combat Androids ...

Oh f**k yes! I actually just finished rereading the Theta trilogy and was just thinking about how I hope the next standalone Pred series would be "Black White & Blood" so this is a welcomed surprise!

[Corporal Hicks]

I'm just really glad Predator's getting a none crossover series again too. As much as I liked PvW and PvBP, I really missed it having the spotlight to itself.

Like the art style of the cover art.

Hell yeah I'm so excited for this!!!

Looking forward to two of these stories right here:

I've always been interesting in Fantasy vs Sci-Fi, so the tagline of "Predator's space tech with classic sword and sorcery!" is EXACTLY what I always wanted to see. Love the use of how a Predator is flexible enough to fit anywhere.

Predators hunting dinosaurs, IF WHAT I"M LOOKING AT IS CORRECT at the new cover. Personally I kind of am wary of making Predators that ancient as kind of am not with the idea of their tech and thinking that stagnate but also DINOSAURS VS PREDATOR tho!!!!

This is such a promising line up, can't wait to read it. Going to manifest AVP: Black, White, and Blood now.

Maybe the dinosaurs are clones in one of the future set stories.

Any opportunity you can have to put dinosaurs in a story, you should take it IMMEDIATELY.

[Just to post once.]

A.i. did a fantastic job on that cover art.

[Corporal Hicks]

Hmmm. Neither look like AI to me.

[Mr.Turok]

I see nothing of AI either.

[Nightmare Asylum]

Wait, Arthurian legend stuff AND dinosaurs??? I might actually read a Marvel Predator comic!
