Marvel Comics has announced a new comic book series titled Predator Versus Black Panther, and it will be a four-issue mini series that will see Predator and Black Panther face off with each other.
In the story the Predator is heading to the African nation of Wakando to obtain vibranium for his tribe, and while the creature is on that mission it finds itself at odds with Black Panther.
The comic comes from writer Benjamin Percy and artists Chris Allen and Ken Lashley. Percy talked about the comic, saying: There are a number of reasons that Black Panther makes for a great adversary and Wakanda makes for great stage (including the fact that the perimeter shield, when locked down, creates a hunting preserve).
“But then you throw vibranium into the mix, and you’ve got a really interesting (and fresh) Predator narrative. The Yautja covet their weapons and trophies—and the kingdom’s vast stores of this rare cosmic metal would be impossible to resist.”
Percy added: “If you’re a comics nerd, I will feed you. If you’re a movie nerd, I will feed you too. And if you’ve never read or seen anything about Predator or Black Panther, you can get fed as well. I want these to be evergreen titles, and the best way to accomplish that is to honor legacy while not overly burdening the reader with continuity homework.”
This should be a lot of fun! The series will debut on August 21.
