• A PREDATOR KING. A VIBRANIUM ARSENAL. AN ALL-OUT INVASION! It's the bloody kickoff to an epic battle between the Predators and Marvel's heroes! A Predator King, emboldened by a new vibranium arsenal and aided by a surprising human ally, launches an all-out invasion of Earth, claiming the planet as hunting preserve! You'll need to read to see just who - if anyone - will survive and to witness some shocking twists and turns as the entire Marvel Universe finds itself in the Predator's tri-laser crosshairs!

Predator Kills the Marvel Universe is set to conclude the epic storyline that began back in 2023's Predator vs. Wolverine by Benjamin Percy and artists Ken Lashley, Greg Land, and Andrea Di Vito. Since then, the tale of the Yautja assault on the Marvel Universe has continued in the pages of Predator vs. Black Panther and Predator vs. Spider-Man, the latter of which has seen these alien efforts expand from personal to citywide attacks. Now, Predator Kills the Marvel Universe is slated to blow things up to bigger proportions than ever, as nearly every major Marvel hero is set to be pulled into the middle of the ongoing conflict.

The first issue of Predator Kills the Marvel Universe will see the Yautja descend upon Earth as part of a plot to transform it into their latest interstellar hunting preserve. From there, things are set to only get worse as the heroes of the Marvel Universe try to push back against the Predator forces. Per the official solicitation text for Predator Kills the Marvel Universe #3, "Reeling from the deadly Yautja invasion, Earth’s surviving heroes lick their wounds and form a last line of defense. Wolverine and Spider-Man take the lead – but will their experience battling Predators in the past be enough? And an unexpected ally makes an appearance..."

Writer Benjamin Percy recently opened up about his work on the Predator vs. line of titles and what Predator Kills the Marvel Universe has in store for fans. "These stories have been patiently building toward something epic. Their interconnectedness will be revealed in this explosive, blood-drenched, five-part story," Percy explained. "That title? It's not misdirection. This one's gonna hurt. Your favorite heroes and villains will fall, even as others rise up against this extinction-level event. The Predator King is here, the Yautja are armed with vibranium, and Earth is now a hunting preserve."
