This new series has both of 20th Century Pictures’ Sci-Fi franchises coming together. We are getting the Predator and Planet Of The Apes together in one series. Now this series is being written by Greg Pak, with art by Alan Robinson, and the book will push both the Yautja and ape to their limit in a brutal battle for dominance. The series’ full description reads:
“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?!”
Greg Pak had this to say about the series:
“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. 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.”
Predator Vs. Planet Of The Apes #1 releases July 29th.
