‘Predator Vs. Black Panther’ First Look Teases A Showdown In Wakanda

First, writer Benjamin Percy pitted Wolverine versus the Predator in the best-selling comic book miniseries. And now, he’s back at it again for Marvel… This time with Predator Vs. Black Panther. And the first look at the interior pages of the series teases a massive showdown in Wakanda.

In the series, which features art by Chris Allen, Sean Damien Hill, Craig Yeung, and Lee Ferguson, an army of Predators — also known as the Yautja — invade Wakanda. Opposing them is, of course, T’Challa the Black Panther… But he can’t do it alone. The Predators are coming for Wakanda’s Vibranium, and there’s a ton of other panthers and the Dora Milaje in their way.

The debut issue won’t just feature this showdown, it’ll also introduce all new clans of Predators, and include covers by artists like Skottie Young and Leinil Francis Yu.

Here’s the official synopsis for the issue, provided by Marvel:

WAKANDA…IS PREY? You saw the Marvel Universe’s most tenacious mutant go up against one of the greatest killing machines in history in PREDATOR VS. WOLVERINE – and survive. Now the planet Earth lives on in Predator lore…a planet full of the most exhilarating prey they could imagine! And the strongest weapons in the Multiverse are in their sights. When a young Predator with something to prove comes for Wakanda’s vibranium, the Black Panther faces an enemy whose resources rival those of his great nation. Who will prove stronger?
