With the first arc set to come to an end next month, Marvel has announced that writer Ed Brisson will continue his Predator saga by teaming with artist Netho Diaz for a brand new volume which will see the series’ protagonist Theta Berwick continuing her mission to rid the galaxy of the lethal Yautja.
“As a lifelong Predator fan — ever since seeing the first at the drive-in theatre at too-young-of-an-age — writing the comic has been an absolute dream gig,” said Brisson. “I’ve been thrilled at fan reaction and how I’ve been able to bring Theta into Predator lore — a bad-ass hunter we haven’t seen the likes of since Dutch took down the Jungle Hunter back in 1987.”
“My only problem with our first series was that it was over too soon! I waned, no…needed, to write more in this universe,” continued Brisson. “Thankfully, we’re coming back, with incredible newcomer Netho Diaz on art, to tell a tale that ties into film continuity, while breaking new ground. We’ve got a new cast, new Predators, and some huge surprises in store! If you’ve read and enjoyed our first series, you are not going to want to miss out.”
On a planet far from Earth, eight strangers find themselves in a deadly game. But this time, the Predators aren’t the only ones on the hunt. Someone has the Yautja in their sites – and they’ve been searching for this game preserve for a long time. Prepare for a brutal, carnage-filled adventure that will turn everything you thought you knew about Predators on its head!
Marvel’s Predator #1 will go on sale in March 2023.
