The ‘Alien’ and ‘Predator’ Franchises Have Found a New Home at Marvel Comics!

Things got interesting for the Alien and Predator franchises when Disney acquired 20th Century Fox (now known as 20th Century Studios), leaving us to wonder what the future of the two franchises is going to look like. Well, on the comics front, we’ve learned that Marvel Comics has acquired both Alien and Predator – Marvel, of course, is owned by Disney.

IGN broke the news this morning, reporting that Marvel being the new home of Alien and Predator “paves the way for a new line of comics set in this cinematic sci-fi universe.”

As part of the announcement, Marvel enlisted artist David Finch to whip up two pieces of Marvel-branded Alien and Predator art, which you can find below. Finch’s Predator art is particularly interesting because it features a Predator holding the decapitated head of Iron Man, though IGN notes that this art doesn’t reflect any upcoming comics in the works.

IGN details, “Marvel’s new comics will expand on the characters and settings of the various Alien and Predator movies.”

Alien and Predator comics have long been published by Dark Horse. Now that the two icons are set up at Marvel, it’s probably safe to expect cross-overs with over Marvel properties.
