Marvel reveals a crossover series featuring Predator and Punisher.

      This November, the galaxy's foremost hunter will once again set its sights on the Marvel Universe with the upcoming four-issue limited crossover series Predator vs. Punisher, penned by Frank Tieri (Alien vs. Captain America) and illustrated by Jesús Saíz (Eddie Brock: Carnage).

      Tieri remarks, “This series will resolve the long-standing debate over who reigns as pop culture's ultimate killing machine. Fans know I've tackled the Punisher before—across various titles like Punisher Noir and the iconic Space: Punisher—but this marks my first venture into the world of Predator. As a teenager who was captivated by Arnold’s ‘Get to the Choppa!’ in theaters, pitting these two against one another is particularly exciting for me.”

      “Our narrative follows the Predator inciting a mob war involving some of Marvel’s most notorious gang figures, but we’ll soon discover that the mob may not be his sole target… a certain vigilante with a skull emblem on his chest is also in his sights,” Tieri elaborates. “Readers can anticipate—SPOILER ALERT—a copious amount of blood and violence, as well as plenty of unexpected twists… including a surprising shared history between our two fighters. 'If it bleeds we can kill it.' The only remaining question is… who will ultimately meet their demise?”

      Editor Mark Paniccia adds, “Watching two legendary killers engage each other in unforeseen ways is a guilty pleasure. Frank Tieri and Jesús Saíz are the ideal team to deliver a confrontation that is brutally impactful and unforgettable. They've crafted a true classic!”

      As a Predator arrives in New York City seeking formidable prey, it crosses paths with Frank Castle! With crime lords being eliminated and the body count escalating, the streets run crimson as two iconic assassins clash in a ferocious confrontation featuring a slew of underworld villains, including KINGPIN, JIGSAW, SILVERMANE, THE OWL, and more!

      Be sure to check out the promotional artwork by Dustin Weaver, along with a variant cover for Predator vs. Punisher #1 illustrated by Alex Maleev, and a homage variant cover by Leinil Francis Yu that pays tribute to Frank Castle’s debut in Amazing Spider-Man #129.

      Predator vs. Punisher #1 is set to hit shelves on November 4, 2026.
