Predator Hunts on Planet of the Apes

16 hours ago 4

New York, NY— April 23, 2026 — Evolution created them. Now the hunt will test them.

This July, the galaxy’s greatest hunter finds new prey on a world ruled by apes in PREDATOR VS. THE PLANET OF THE APES, a five-issue Marvel Comics series written by Greg Pak (Planet Hulk) and drawn by Alan Robinson (X-Men Infinity Comic). Made in collaboration with 20th Century Studios, the series marks the first-ever crossover between the two groundbreaking sci-fi franchises and is the latest in Marvel’s acclaimed line of 20th Century Studios storytelling, including recent hits like Planet of the Apes Vs. Fantastic Four and Predator: Bloodshed. Blending the mythologies and themes of both universes, the revolutionary saga pushes both Yautja and apes to their limits in a brutal battle for dominance!

Worlds collide when a deadly Yautja crash-lands on the legendary Planet of the Apes!

After a rescue mission gone wrong, astronaut Arch finds herself embedded in a hostile ape society where humans are subservient. But the hunters soon became the hunted when the apes find themselves being stalked by Predators! A three-way war is about to erupt between humans, apes and Yautja – who will reign supreme?!

On his love for both franchises, Pak shared, “I vividly remember watching the first Planet of the Apes movie on an old 13″ black-and-white television in the early 1980s and having my mind TOTALLY BLOWN.” So I was thrilled when Marvel approached me to write Planet of the Apes comics — and then even MORE thrilled when they said it would be a Predator book as well!”

Planet of the Apes and Predator are two of the most iconic sci-fi series of all time—I’d be thrilled to work on EITHER of them. But both of them together? Just incredible,” he continued. “Both series do so much wild worldbuilding, grapple with a deeply organic and compelling kind of sci-fi, and take on massive and eternally relevant themes of violence and war. Both also absolutely GO THERE, taking huge risks and leaps all the time. I can’t wait to show what we’re cooking up with Alan Robinson and the rest of the creative team. “
