Purloining someones art, then inking it seems like it's playing a really long game for an April Fools prank.

Oh. A joke. Hmmm.

Strange.
It is April 1st in Australia already 🤷‍♂️

True ... still... odd.

Yes, perhaps the most awkward joke of the day.

I don't think the intent was an April Fool's joke, but a commentary on the art swiping situation.

But as Tristan also pointed out on Twitter, it probably would have been funnier if the artist just traced Greg Land's monstrosity instead.

This is like those shitty prank videos that are just mean-spirited acts of douchebaggery followed by "It's a prank, bro!". I feel for Tristan.

With Marvel's Predator series looking like it's possibly cancelled, could the same thing happen to Alien?

Well it's in the news, can't find any indication it's just a prank. Google it.

The only thing I can see is a bleeding cool article, from April 1st.

Meanwhile all Predator covers on forbidden planet still have the release date of the beginning of May

The story's been picked up by other sites today.

Could creative differences be behind this? Studio interference?

Dachande

Newsbreak, which literally just copied and pasted the article, and comicbook, which said its source was the bleeding cool article.

Just because other sites are claiming it does not make it true.

Assuming this is true and not an April fools prank,
The article I saw said the predator series was delayed, not cancelled. It also says that people's orders have been cancelled (orders, not the series) which isn't that uncommon with a significant delay; it'll kind of depend on the region and vendor. I had a book I preordered once get cancelled on me after it was delayed, but all I needed to do was go back in and re-place the order.

All the Predator comics on Diamond (Marvel's current comic distributor) were removed.

Predator issue #1 was here:

But Alien is still there:

Marvel delays Predator Comics until November 2021 and a new distribution deal might be to blame.
