When Disney bought 20th Century Fox it became a matter of “when” and not “if” this crossover would happen.
In September the Predator will be going head to head with Marvel’s Wolverine across different eras in the four issue limited series Predator VS Wolverine written by Benjamin Percy. With art by Greg Land, Andrea Di Vito, Ken Lashley, and Kei Zama among other, the series will see Wolverine being hunted by the same Predator during different periods of his life.
I’m not going to say I was born to write this crossover… but sometimes the universe reveals why you were created. I am a child of the eighties. I cannot tell you how many times I watched Predator, just as I cannot tell you how many Wolverine comics I have read, because that would be like telling you how many breaths I’ve taken or cheeseburgers I’ve eaten.
The mythologies of both are ingrained in me so deeply they might as well be strands of DNA or wisps of soul. The guns, claws, beef, and blood of both franchises have been stewing in my brain since 1987, when I read myself to sleep every night with a stack of Marvel comics and my friends and I used to play ‘Predator’ with Nerf guns in the woods and river near our neighborhood.
This epic hunt will span decades, as both of these giants learn and harden and grow deadlier with time,” Percy continued. “Neither will have time to bleed, but you better make time to read, because I’m putting everything I’ve got into this event, and I’m thrilled to join forces with some of the best artists in the business.
