Predator Life and Death

Question Predator Life and Death

Predator: Life and Death has been announced by Dark Horse Comics. Comic Book Resources are reporting the announcement of a brand new four issue Predator comic series from Dark Horse Comics:

“Colonial Marines on the planet Tartarus battle extraterrestrial hunters over the possession of a mysterious horseshoe-shaped spaceship of unknown origin. The Weyland-Yutani rep wants the ship, and the marine captain wants to protect her crew. But neither objective is likely when a band of Predators attacks! Predator: Life and Death begins chapter one in a new story cycle involving Predators, Aliens, and the mysterious Engineers from Prometheus!“

I don't know if this is a sequel to the Fire and Stone Crossover series that Dark Horse did with Prometheus,Alien,AVP and Predator. I'm looking forward to this since Fire and Stone didn't disappoint me
smokin'

Looking forward to this mini-series

Still haven't read all of that Fire & Stone, Mainly Missing Part 2 of the Aliens section & Same for Predator

might have to track em down in the bargin boxes or ebay at this point.

I'm pretty sure their is a hardcover that collects all of it, probably costs a few bucks though.

Does anyone know if the Prometheus side of the mythology will be included in this? Or is this going to strictly be a Pred thing?

Edit: baa, double post.

I own a copy of that Hardcover and I can tell you its actually 480 pages containing extra details about the Fire and Stone series. It even has unused concept art of the Deacon and a female version of the synthetic Elden named Eldena. No details yet if Predator Life and Death will be a Pred only book or if it will start another cross franchising event like Fire and Stone. Here's an interview with Dan Abnett about Predator Life and Death.

Why?

when i already got most of it, All i need now is one more issue to collect it all.

How are all the Alien and Predator comics? I've been interested in the lore lately of both series and if they're decent I'll probably read them and then this. Seeing as I have nothing else to look forward to in comics. 😂

They're worth reading

only thing with Fire & Stone onward's it was a reboot of the books.

Yeah, You could do that.

Is the Prometheus stuff included in that?

Yup since the story takes place on LV-223 😄

Should be good with Dan Abnett writing this new book, **** he's a busy guy already doing some books for Marvel at the moment and i'm sure some others elsewhere too.

Its now confirmed that "Life and Death" will be like the franchise crossover event "Fire and Stone" since a cover art by Dave Palumbo for Prometheus Life and Death was just revealed in Big Comic Page.

Here's the link and confirmation Dan Abnett will be writing all 4 series(Predator,Prometheus,Aliens and AVP).

http://bigcomicpage.com/2016/02/09/bcp-interview-dan-abnett-talks-predator-life-and-death/

BCP: Dark Horse’s press release mentioned this being the first chapter in a story cycle. Are you able to tell us a little about that? Is this set to be equivalent of 2014’s Fire and Stone event, with several interconnected mini-series?

DA: That’s the idea. A sequence of mini series that moves the overall story along in big dramatic steps, carrying characters along and switching the main focus between the major franchises and their distinctive horrors.
