Predator Vs. Punisher hits Marvel shelves this November
Predator Vs. Punisher, a new Marvel comic, pits two iconic characters against each other.
Marvel just dropped a serious announcement at San Diego Comic-Con: Predator Vs. Punisher, a four-issue limited series that pairs the extraterrestrial hunter with Frank Castle in a brutal crossover that's going to get messy fast.
Frank Tieri is writing the arc with Jesús Saíz on art duties. The premise is exactly what it sounds like—Predator and Punisher colliding—but Marvel's stacking the deck with Marvel villains including Kingpin, Jigsaw, Silvermane, and The Owl. That's not a fight between two heavy hitters. That's a war with layers.
The series kicks off in November. Issue one will feature main cover art by Dustin Weaver, with variant covers from Alex Maleev and Leinil Francis Yu—so if you're collecting all three, you're already planning your pull list strategy.
This is the kind of crossover that works because it doesn't need much justification. Predator as a concept has always thrived in Marvel's hands when the story leans into the hunt itself, and Punisher's entire existence is built on escalation and ruthlessness. Put them in the same space with a rogues gallery and you've got the framework for something that feels earned rather than manufactured.
If you've been waiting on something with real teeth heading into the fall, this one's worth marking your calendar for.
