Predator: Badlands is the latest entry in the “Predator” film franchise and arrives in theaters on November 7. That same month, Marvel Comics will publish Predator: Badlands #1, a tie-in comic by writer Ethan Sacks and, in his Marvel Comics debut, artist Elvin Ching, a promising recent participant of Marvel’s Art Atelier program with inks by Oren Junior. Serving as the official prelude to the highly anticipated film, the one-shot is being produced in close collaboration with director Dan Trachtenberg, who will also write a foreword for the issue.

Predator: Badlands which stars Elle Fanning and Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi, is set in the future on a remote planet, where Dek, a young Predator outcast from his clan, finds an unlikely ally in Thia and embarks on a treacherous journey in search of the ultimate adversary. Taking place shortly before these events, the “Predator: Badlands” comic explores the film’s bold new approach to “Predator” franchise storytelling, introducing readers to Dek and other key characters.

THE HUNT BEGINS.

In the one-shot, a young Yautja warrior is given a seemingly simple task by his father: retrieve a piece of technology from a derelict spaceship that crashed years ago. Inside, however, an ancient and deadly threat lies in wait.
