Predator / Predator: Concrete Jungle
|
The Yautja are back, only this time their hunting ground is not the tropical jungles of South America -- it is the concrete and street jungles of New York City! It is the hottest summer on record, and Detective John Schaefer and his partner, Detective Rasche, discover a Yautja in New York City during a bad drug deal. Schaefer believes the Yautja and Gen Phillips have a connection to his brother, Major Alan "Dutch" Schaefer.
This leads Schaefer on a hunt into Colombia where Schaefer has yet another run in with a Yautja as well as a Colombian drug lord - an old New York adversary.
Things get worse as Rasche discovers the existence of a whole fleet of Yautja ready to invade and Schaefer comes face-to-face with the Colombian drugs lords! In addition, general panic continues in New York City as the Yautja hunt for Schaefer and kill everyone in their path!
Schaefer and Rasche reunite, but it is just in time to fight the battle of their lives! It is all-out war against the Yautja army, and since the army and police want Schaefer and Rasche out of the way--the two must turn to one of their enemies for the labor they need! Will anyone--or anything-- be left standing when the smoke clears?

Predator: Big Game
|
U.S. Army Corporal Enoch Nakai is a young Navajo Indian with a bad past and an even worse present. Stationed in the American Southwest, he and his good army friend Dietl go on a recon patrol to investigate a small disturbance- but discover that the disturbance is anything but small! Try a seven-foot, bad-attitude extraterrestrial armed to the teeth and looking for trouble! Even though Enoch sees a resemblance between the Yautja and the legendary Indian "adilgashii" that haunts his nightmares, it is clear that the alien has more on his mind than invading people's dreams!
A nuclear blast destroyed Cole Arm Base, becoming and is off limits to all. Enoch Nakai has other ideas as he heads for the base just the same-in defiance of his superiors' orders. On the way, he comes across the bloody trail left by the Yautja and finally catches sight of the alien itself. It seems that Enoch and the army have a great deal more to worry about than a measly old nuclear explosion!
Enoch Nakai has given up everything to pursue an army career - his traditional way of life, his family, and maybe even his principles. Unfortunately, the army could not care less - his superior officers place the one man who might have a chance against the Yautja under arrest. This leaves our wily alien free to do what he does best: wreak havoc and kill people in gross ways!
This fast-paced conclusion reaches new heights of excitement as Enoch Nakai goes one-on-one with the deadliest hunter in the galaxy. When his army training comes up short, Enoch relies on his native skills and intuition to try to outwit the Yautja. However, our otherworldly friend has a few tricks up his sleeve as well, keeping us all on the edge of our seats. Who will be the final victor?
Predator: Blood on Two-Witch Mesa is a direct prequel, which showed the adventures of Corporal Enoch Nakai's grandfather. Enoch then appears in Predator: Hunters
Predator: Cold War

The Yautja are back, only this time they have touched down in a remote section of Soviet Siberia. "So let the Russians worry about 'em," is New York City police detective Schaefer's attitude. The only problem is someone seems to want Schaefer in on the action - whether he likes it or not!
Something was happening in Soviet Siberia, and the U.S. military suspects what the Soviets are just beginning to find out - the Yautja are back! Detective Schaefer and General Philips' elite squad parachute into the icy wasteland to investigate, only to receive a warm welcome from both the Russians and the Yautja.
In the sub-zero ruins of Siberian oil-pumping station, U.S. commandos take on their Soviet counterparts as the superpowers teeter on the brink of war! Only Russian Lt. Ligachev and American detective Schaefer seem interested in going after the real enemy - the Yautja.
Schaefer and Ligachev take the battle to the enemy when they attack the Yautja' downed spacecraft. The only thing Schaefer could not understand is, if it is winter in Siberian, why is it so hot that he and Ligachev are forced to strip down to their skivvies?

1992: From the Arctic Circle to the equatorial jungles - from the most isolated wilderness to the overpopulated city - any place can be a hunting ground. It all depends on your choice of game. For Yautja, that game is man, so he heads to the grounds with the biggest trophies: the Paloverde State Penitentiary. They say that when you kill a killer, all his kills belong to you, and the Yautja looking to rack up the big numbers.
The story begins here with a serial killer, a Yautja, and the man hired to find the truth -- Cross. The Yautja hunts the most dangerous game... man. Now the Yautja moves to the most dangerous hunting ground on the planet... the Paloverde State Penitentiary in Arizona. Tension is high in the prison as a convicted serial killer arrives, followed by a Yautja bent on killing him and the man chasing them both... Cross.
Where do you hide from a killer, locked in a prison cell? Tensions rise at the Paloverde State Penitentiary as the Yautja claims his first victim. Cross gets his assignment to go undercover in the prison and find what he does not even believe in. Cross is closing in on the Yautja inside Paloverde State Penitentiary, but what he finds is even more than he bargained for! Cross and the other prisoners of Paloverde State Penitentiary encounter the creature hunting them. Break out your riot gear, this is the big one!
The Task Force hunting the Yautja in this series is presumably a CIA team or some other covert branch of government intelligence, possibly members of the OWLF shown in the film Predator 2. The Task Force reports to what they refer to as “Control”, and has recruited members under false or incomplete pretenses from various sectors. These members of the Task Force work out of a station in Tucson, Arizona and out of a mobile operations van in Chicago, IL.

But unlike others of its species, this alien intruder is no sport hunter, but a blood-crazed psychotic, a butcher of its own kind, an unhinged killing machine. While a massive manhunt sweeps the Barrens, a stalker of a different kind searches for the killer-a second Yautja, bent on bringing down the rogue monster.
A special task force sweeps the New Jersey Pine Barrens in search of a psychotic Yautja, a blood-crazed butcher bent on killing any living creature it encounters.

And if this cast of spooks and psychos weren't enough of a potential powder keg, enter another Yautja, here to wreak vengeance upon its unhinged brother -- and anything that gets in its way.

And as the humans square off, so does the Yautja -- against another Yautja, that's tracked its quarry through the depths of space to earth. Will anyone survive the ensuing insanity?
The New Jersey Pine Barrens echo with the roar of a rogue, serial-killer Yautja. He's just taken out another Yautja sent to kill him -- and now he's gone berserk, attacking anything he encounters. Now, ex-CIA agents Poppa John and friends face a horrific extraterrestrial and the wrath of the U.S. military.

Two days ago, the crew of a Chilean fishing vessel saw something fall from the sky. They were into the Humboldt current, watching the approach of a fast-moving weather front, when they heard a roar like a huge turbine in the sky. The rain swept over them, and through the sheets coming down through the clouds they saw a vision that at times took on material definition and flickered with an electricity of its own. Captain Rafe Cromartie has a pretty good idea what's down in those cold waters - he's pretty sure he's fishing for Yautja. But knowing what you're fishing for and knowing how to catch it are two totally different things.
One crew member is dead, his skull and spine ripped out, and Matteson is missing. That leaves the team no choice - they have to go back into the waters to search for their absent comrade. They're prepared to battle a Yautja, so they believe they're prepared for the worst, but the horrible truth is that the Yautja may be the least of their troubles.
As if a Yautja weren't problem enough! Rafe Cromartie has already lost a good part of his crew to the undersea hunt for the Yautja. Now it looks as though the rest of the crew - and Rafe himself - are about to fall victim to another undersea horror: a huge, tentacled worm creature! It looks as though Rafe and crew are caught between Hell and Hot Water!

Naturalist Maya Bergstrom and ex-combat photographer George Maxwell have just met a Yautja for the first time -- an ancient, legendary warrior unlike any other Yautja. But he's not here to hunt humans. His mission is to bring down three young, thrill-kill Bad Blood Yautja that don't follow their race's warrior code. But Maya and George are on to something: the real reason Yautja are flocking to Earth. If they're right, the human race is in for one hell of a wake-up call!
In the dense wilderness of Yellowstone National Park, a photojournalist named George witnesses the carnage brought on by three young renegade Bad Blood Yautja. Maya, a naturalist, has stumbled across a noble elder of this alien race, every bit as tough. Its purpose is a mystery to her but soon becomes clear: As the renegades mercilessly carve a wake of death, they are unaware that one of their own has come to Earth to hunt them.
In the heart of Yellowstone National Park, terrifying events are unfolding. A trio of thrill-kill Yautja has been using Earth as their own private slaughterhouse. However, these killers don't realize that they are being hunted by one of their own: a noble but deadly warrior who is the granddaddy of all Yautja! But, as this death match comes to a boil, a nameless government agent has his own plans for this otherwordly race.
When Yautja clash with other Yautja, look out! It all comes to a head as the ancient, mysterious Yautja warrior faces off against the young, merciless trio of his race. Will discipline and experience win out against youth and raw power? And what of Bergstrom's chilling hypothesis that Yautja were Earth's original inhabitants eons ago?!
Predator: Xenogenesis

|

Part of a crossover with AvP: Xenogenesis and Aliens: Xenogenesis
For decades, the Yautja have come to Earth, hunting humans as prey. But their actions haven't gone unnoticed . . . years of research have revealed their secrets. Now, the ultimate strike team of rogues and mercenaries--armed to the teeth with state-of-the-art technology--has banded together to eliminate the Yautja . . . permanently.
Yautja live for the hunt. So does the black-ops team known as Spearhead. But this band of mercenaries and ex-heroes might be too confident for their own good. Though armed to the teeth with enough weaponry to send Yautja scurrying back into the woodwork, there's one thing their enemy has that Spearhead does not: cunning. As Spearhead is unknowingly baited into battle, it wonders what the Yautja's true agenda is.
Subotai is an immortal Japanese samurai who's been fighting Yautja since they arrived on Earth. Now, as part of Spearhead, Subotai realizes that the true monsters aren't always who you expect them to be. John Dancer, Commander of Spearhead and Subotai's oldest friend, has come unglued. Has Dancer's mission to protect Earth from Yautja gone too far? And if so, will Subotai have the strength and the courage to stop him?
The showdown between Subotai, the immortal samurai, and John Dancer, commander of Spearhead, has been a long time coming. But while these two former friends square off, planet Earth has become the newest vacation spot for dozens of Yautja, all coming to hunt Spearhead for sport. One Yautja in particular has come to hunt the most challenging prey of them all: Subotai. If Spearhead falls to the creatures, will that open the door for a full-scale Yautja invasion?
There are several continuity contradictions in this report.
- Gideon Suhn Lee (AvP: Eternal) states that Subotai, who first gained extended life by eating the flesh of the Yautja, died after 200 years. However, Subotai becomes a member of Strikeforce and states that he has been alive far longer than 200 years. It is possible that Lee was unaware that Subotai is still alive.

Superman vs Predator

#1: In Superman vs. Predator, the galaxy's ultimate hunter takes on the Earth's greatest champion in a battle that holds the fate of the world in the balance. While investigating a mysterious alien ship in the jungles of Central America, Superman becomes the victim of a power-draining virus. But when the Yautja senses the arrival of a worthy opponent, the alien instantly targets the Man of Steel as his next prey. Now, a weakened and dazed Superman must find a way to defeat an unstoppable monster or witness the first step in the Yautja's domination of Earth.
In the dense forests of Central America, a S.T.A.R. Labs research team makes an incredible discovery: a spacecraft of unknown origin, which could point humanity toward new technological advances - or spell its doom. The Man of Steel quickly joins the team, only to find that the ship is somehow draining his super powers, and that a terrorist organization plans to use it to commit murder on a global scale. And as Superman struggles to focus his waning power, the ship's owner returns...
Superman is very ill, and he's been captured by a mad scientist and his band of mercenaries. He escapes, to go to the ship in search of a cure. There, Superman finds it swarming with flies and a pile of skulls, and comes into contact with the Yautja - before the ship explodes. Superman returns to the base to release the other captives, and the Yautja attacks. Superman gets to the prisoners just in time, and is able to stop the bullets with his body or catch them. With the prisoners free, they call in an airstrike and escape into the forest. As they run, behind them, a huge beam lances up into the air from the temple. Superman decides to go back...
In its cave, the Yautja gathers its weapons for the coming fight. Mercenaries fire their weapons in fear into the empty forest. Superman watches them and sneaks inside. Inside Dr Ward and Rollins are preparing to fire their weapon which will kill anyone who does not have perfect genes. As Superman searches for the power generators, the Yautja attacks. Superman and the alien fight it out - and Superman is losing...

They've hunted the Dark Knight Detective. They've gone after the Man of Steel. Now they're prepared to go after the most challenging prey imaginable: the entire Justice League of America. The Yautja have taken a cue from the world's greatest super-heroes. A cadre of Yautja have acquired their own super-powers.

They make targets of each of the JLA members -- relishing in the thrill of the hunt. They engage in the ultimate sport of attempting to kill the most powerful heroes ever known. But how can any foes, even ones as relentless as the Yautjas, possibly beat our heroes? Because this time, the Yautjas are equipped with the incredible powers of the Justice League itself! With the help of a rogue Dominion geneticist, the aliens have transformed themselves into "Meta-Yautjas" -- super-powered versions of the same ultimate hunters who stalk the universe's most dangerous game! Can even the mighty JLA withstand the savage onslaught of a squad of Yautjas with Superman's strength, the Flash's speed, and Plastic Man's morphing powers?

Dark Horse Comics set the comics industry on its ear with its comics expansion of the Yautja mythos, a comics series so true to the spirit of the original 20th Century Fox film blockbuster that concepts from the first Predator comics series were incorporated into the Predator screen universe. Now, the three core Dark Horse Predator graphic novels-Concrete Jungle, Cold War, and Dark River-and several other chilling Predator tales, some never before reprinted, are collected together for the first time, in a value-priced, quality-format omnibus, featuring over 400 explosive story pages in full color. Written by screen and television scribe Mark Verheiden (The Mask, Battlestar Galactica) and comics legend Dan Barry and illustrated by Chris Warner, Ron Randall, Dan Barry, and others, Predator Omnibus Vol. 1 is an essential piece of the Predator mythos and a great entry point into the storied Dark Horse Predator library.

Utilizing their feral instincts and otherworldly technology in the sole pursuit of the most dangerous game . . . Man. Whether haunting the blazing deserts of the Southwest, stalking the claustrophobic woods of the Pine Barrens, or infiltrating a maximum security prison, the Yautja take no prisoners and leave only death in their grisly wake.

Predator Omnibus Volume 3

Death often hides in the dark, isolated corners of the earth-in thick woods, steaming swamps, or angry seas. These natural dangers of animal, weather, and terrain often give rise to legends and folk tales of demons, serpents, and ghosts to put an understandable face to the unknown. And while many myths have a basis in reality, some are reality, the reality of the presence of Yautja: alien hunters as savage as they are intelligent, as cunning as they are merciless. And when rational men stand face to face with a sea serpent, a Gollywomp, or the New Jersey Devil bent on taking trophies, they have but two choices-fight the myth or become history!
Predator Omnibus Volume 4

Across the centuries, humanity’s capacity for violence has marked time as surely as the movement of the stars. And from those very stars have come an invisible participant in our history, the extraterrestrial Yautja, who has used Mankind’s own penchant for murder and mayhem as a shadow to cover its own bloody tracks, as a hunting blind from which to take down its human prey. But the Yautja has not passed through the ages unnoticed, and despite the alien killer’s strength, cunning, and advanced technology, there are few things more certain than how far men are willing to go when it’s time for a little payback!

Introducing the East African Yautja incursion that features in Prey to the Heavens.
Predator: Prey to the Heavens
|
|
|---|
The world's attention is focused painfully on a brutal third world Civil War, a merciless sectarian conflict sparing neither soldier nor civilian, grandmother nor child. But amidst the terror and carnage, where great nations and powerful interests jockey for position and advantage, another blood feud rages in the shadows, one no more humane but decidedly less human. Two warring tribes from the stars have chosen Earth's killing fields as their arena, with each clan sworn to eradicate the other... and all who stand between them. Each is the other's prey, each the other's Yautja.
Where there is armed conflict, there is money to be made. And in the midst of a third-world civil war, the military contractors of Graham Directive Security have sold their skills to shield their corporate clients from the sectarian violence tearing a country apart. But the GDS guns-for-hire soon discover that they are in the midst of not one, but two civil wars, one of extraterrestrial origin. And while the brutality and ruthlessness of mankind is well documented, it is nothing compared to the heartless savagery exhibited by the star-spawned Yautja, especially when warring clans of the alien terrors are each sworn to wipe the other from existence.
While the guns-for-hire of Graham Directive Security knew they were entering a third-world war zone when they signed on, they never bargained for stumbling into the middle of an interplanetary blood feud. After barely surviving a brutal firefight with a squad of Yautja soldiers, Thorpe and Briggs hightail it to the GDS compound only to find their base under siege by the offworld marauders. Thorpe and his crew haven’t got a prayer of survival -- that is, they wouldn’t if they didn’t have the most unlikely ally in the universe.
Think that a third-world civil war is messy? How about an off-world civil war? Caught in the middle of a blood feud between rival Yautja clans in an east African war zone, private military contractor Thorpe barely makes it back to base with his hide intact after a pitched firefight with a squad of extraterrestrial marauders. But clean sheets and hot chow will provide cold comfort once the alien killers and their lethal technology track Thorpe down, and he has precious little time to marshal the Graham Directive Security crew for a desperate defense. They might have had a chance had they not lost their most potent ally, a lone rival Yautja warrior, but now Thorpe and the GDS soldiers are out of options and out of time as they prepare to make their stand-their last stand.

Celebrate the 30th anniversary of one of the great action movies of all time with this collection of "core Dark Horse Predator graphic novel" sequels to the film.
Before Predator 2 was ever conceived as a film, writer Mark Verheiden and artist Chris Warner created an acclaimed comic-book sequel to Predator that took the alien trophy hunters from the jungles of Central America to the concrete jungle of New York City--where they face Dutch Schaefer's big brother, who's an NYPD detective!
Also included in this volume are Verheiden's two subsequent Predator stories -- Cold War, which finds the Yautja crash-landed in Siberia, and Dark River, in which the hero of Concrete Jungle traces the path of his younger brother to find out what really happened to him after Predator.
Three now-classic tales in one over-sized, deluxe hard cover volume designed to sit on your bookshelf beside the Aliens 30th Anniversary edition!

Baki the Grappler
|
|
|---|
Promotional material for the Japanese release of The Predator has given the famous titular hunter a cool anime makeover. In a cross promotional effort with the Baki anime series, the two series' supremely strong fighters are being set against one another in an effort to figure out which one of them is the strongest being.
Although he's a high schooler, Baki has since proven himself the strongest human being alive for going against the likes of ancient cavemen, giant praying mantises, and a line of escaped Death Row inmates who come after him specifically. So not only does The Predator get a cool anime spin, it makes a ton of sense to crossover with a fighter would immediately challenge the hunter upon seeing him. Baki the Grappler is filled to the brim with wildly imaginative, absurd fights and characters.
The special promotion will have fans in Japan vote for which of the two characters is strongest by retweeting tweets, and those that vote can be entered to win specially autographed Baki scripts and manga, masks, T-shirts, and other cool merchandise.

The essential introduction to Predator in the comics!
Brutal, invisible, nearly unstoppable. He is the hunter from the stars . . . the Yautja.
They seek the strongest, the most dangerous game--good or evil. They come in the hottest years (unless they crash land in the middle of a Siberian winter), and they don't leave until they've taken their quota of trophies (usually human skulls). But if NYPD detectives Schaefer and Rasche have anything to say about it, the hunt if over! From the Big Apple to the Russian steppes to the jungles of Central America, the detectives and their allies pursue their quarries. And they always get their . . . alien.
Archie vs. Predator 2
|
|
|---|
Four years after the two properties first enjoyed their unexpected crossover in Archie vs. Predator, it’s time for a rematch between Riverdale and the Yautja looking for the ultimate trophy. Archie and his friends will have to deal with that pesky Yautja again, and readers will have a blast finding out what we have in store for them.”
The second Archie vs. Predator mini will follow on directly from the first - and those who’ve read the original know just how unlikely that might be.
The pairing of de Campi and Hack has resulted in a series in which Riverdale’s destruction - and the fact that almost all of the familiar characters from Archie stories are dead, including Archie himself - means that Betty and Veronica will have to take drastic measures to return everything to normal…if that’s even possible. Expect to see alternate takes on beloved characters as B&V come face-to-face with newer incarnations of Archie’s Pals & Gals - including themselves. (Oh, and there are Predators preparing to attack, as well.)
The Archie characters are aware of the Multiverse Theory, refering to the alternate universes where Archie marries Veronica in one, and Betty in another. They also mention the alternate universe regarding Pureheart the Powerful, a character born when Archie attempts to tap into the "PH Factor", a superpower only accessed by those pure of heart. Pureheart is super-strong, super-resilient, and can fly using his "jet-boosters". However, his powers only exist as long as his heart is pure, leading to embarrassing situations such as him losing his powers after an appreciative kiss from a damsel in distress, causing the car he was holding up to fall on him.

The Hunters team is in Belize, where they have an acrimonious meeting with the newly arrived Russian team that is after the same quarry. Fortunately, an unexpected player from Dark Horses very first Predator series is there to prevent bloodshed.
The Hunters compete in a game of wits with the Russians to find--and kill--the Predators. As they follow the Predator trail deeper into the treacherous jungle, they make a shocking discovery--there are two Predators! The hunters may become the hunted . . .
Violence and carnage erupt! The Hunters await the opportunity to ambush the Predators, but a companion's past may cost them the hunt and their lives!
Predator: The Original Screenplay
|
|
|---|
Before there was Predator, there was Hunters. Now, Dark Horse Comics and Twentieth Century Fox invite you to experience that story in Predator: The Original Screenplay. Adapted from James E. Thomas and John C. Thomas’ 1984 screenplay Hunters, writer Jeremy Barlow, artist Patrick Blaine, and inker Andy Owens bring the original story to brutal life.
In Predator: The Original Screenplay, a team of military specialists are on a rescue mission in the jungles of Central America. The details of the mission are classified, but the team soon uncovers a trail of lies and deceit. Something is observing them—tracking their every move. The hunt has begun!
Following the purchase of 20th Century Fox by Disney, the license to produce Predator comics moved to Marvel (along with the Aliens and Alien vs. Predator lines), thus bringing Dark Horse's involvement with the franchise to an end after more than 30 years. As a result of the change in ownership, the series Predator: The Original Screenplay was canceled.

In the near future, a young girl sees her family slaughtered by the deadliest and most feared hunter in the universe: a PREDATOR. Years later, though her ship is barely holding together and food is running short, Theta won’t stop stalking the spaceways until the Yautja monster who killed her family is dead…or she is.
Ed Brisson and Kev Walker forge a violent, heartbreaking, unforgettable new chapter in the PREDATOR saga not to be missed!
This title was put on hold due to legal issues. The movie's writers, Jim and John Thomas, are seeking to exploit copyright law's termination provision, which allows authors to cancel transfers after waiting a period of time, typically 35 years, for newer works. According to the complaint, the effective termination date for their screenplay (originally titled "Hunters") is April 17, 2021. Jim and John Thomas say they served a termination notice all the way back in 2016 — and for four-and-a-half years heard no objection.
After a period of uncertainty, Marvel has now announced that the Predator comic will be stalking into comic book stores in July of 2022!
