Marvel Announces Predator vs. Black Panther Series!

Spoiler

Also liked that this Predator had something to prove and refused to quit even when he was repeatedly bested; which as long as he's not dying would technically give him a chance to redeem his honor. And I was shocked when he cut Black Panther's leg off! Also, Percy left this one wide open for a sequel and it makes me question if the Predator VS Marvel characters are its own continuity?! I would be very interested in this approach myself!

I just took a look at the panel... I didn't notice that before!

Spoiler

Yeah, it's definitely safe to say that the Predators won this fight in more ways than one. An opponent can't fight if he can't stand, and to make T'Challa fight his fight, and take his leg? Yeah... Team Predator won this one.

But seriously, if the win went this far, why not just take Panther's spine and skull?

My guess is that both are not in prime condition to keep going, and the Predator did realize that in the end he gotten what he wanted. "Quit while you're ahead" I think the Predator is following.

Yeah but when you say it like that, it kind of takes away from the win. C'mon let us have this one.

Cause the Marvel fandom sure ain't letting us have it.

I mean they did win in the end.

Spoiler

Black Panther gots a missing leg, even his people installing him with a vibranium leg he would still count having a disability, and the Vibrainum is now in the hands of a Predator tribe. Two wins, one loss isn't so bad in this issue.

Hell we won as the readers cuz now

Spoiler

we get to see Predators upgraded with vibranium at some point.

Finally got around to picking up the last issue from the shop. I could do with sitting down and reading the run in one sitting, but I enjoyed it. It was pretty solid, though I think I preferred vs. Wolverine better. I agree with Xiggz in that I think this is another dimension, specifically for the Predators to come run amok around the Marvel universe. And I dig that. Nice to know they'll actually suceed in some fashion in this AU. Also enjoyed the change of objective in this story.

Yeah, Predator vs Wolverine was better!

But... if Xenomorphs and Predators exists in the Marvel Multiverse, and we've seen an alternative ALIEN universe...

Then ANYTHING goes.

I do wonder if the Predator Vs and AVA stories take place in the same alternate universe or not.

They do not, according to Marvel Wiki.

That and Panther still has his leg in the Aliens crossover.

Right, that detail should have been obvious to me.

Guess that means any Marvel vs AVP stories are gonna be their own separate timeline.

Man, I hate Percy's writing, but I thought that he found his place in those simple crossovers after fairly decent Predator vs. Wolverine. And then there comes Predator vs. Black Panther and he proves to me once more that he is one of the worst writers at Marvel currently. Series is nothing special during three issues, it has some interesting ideas, but then we have final issue, wchich was abysmal. It didn't have any satysfaing conlusion to any character or plot point, it ends abruptly and only shows annoying sequel bait. And to top it off, art was just servicible at best. After this my enthusiasm for Predator vs. Spider-Man vanished.

Should this be on Amazon already?

Should this be on Amazon already?

April 15th for the trade release.

Finally got around to reading this and it had some interesting concepts to start with. Enjoyed the predator fued in the first issue but then it doesn't really go anywhere until the end. Also what is with Marvels artwork? So much of this felt rushed, very little detail. I liked Predator vs Wolverine for its different artistic styles per issue buy here it just felt like to me the artist gave up after the first issue then decided to put some effort into the last issue. Was there a change in artists at some point?
