Marvel Comics Shares Awesome PREDATOR VS WOLVERINE Art Covers
Marvel Comics has revealed a collection of covers that were created for the first issue of their upcoming crossover comic Predator Vs. Wolverine.
This project was announced in June and it’s a four-part limited series that will pit Predator against Wolverine, and I’m sure that it’s going to be quite an epic showdown! My money is on Wolverine.
An official synopsis for issue #1 reads: “The thrill is the kill! Wolverine has lived one of the longest and most storied lives in comics history. Now, witness the untold greatest battles of Logan’s life — against a Predator! One Yautja seeks the greatest prey in existence — and finds it in Weapon X. From the blood-ridden snows of the Canadian wilderness to the sword-slinging streets of Madripoor, Wolverine and a Predator break everything in their paths on their way to the ultimate victory … or glorious death.”
Predator Vs. Wolverine is written by Benjamin Percy, who said in an interview: “Predator and Wolverine is a pairing like peanut butter and chocolate, shoes and socks, or whatever. They belong together. This event — their union — has been an inevitability. The fact that I’m writing it? For the first time? Doesn’t feel real, honestly. I’m aware of the responsibility, and I’m delivering the goods required of me for this kind of royal rumble. I’ve been pushing for this since I learned about the Disney acquisition of 20th Century Studios. So [it’s been] years. I’ve been asking and asking and asking for years, and I’m thrilled it all finally came together.”
Predator Vs. Wolverine #1 features a main cover by Marco Checchetto, and the issue also comes with variant covers by Alex Maleev, Inhyuk Lee, Skottie Young, Mike McKone, Peach Momoko, Steven McNiven, and Stephen Segovia.
Predator Vs. Wolverine is drawn by artists such as Greg Land, Andrea Di Vito, Ken Lashley, Kei Zama, and more.
Predator Vs. Wolverine #1 goes on sale Wednesday, September 20 from 20th Century Studios and Marvel Comics.
