Marvel Comics has revealed Predator: Badlands #1, a one-shot prequel to the upcoming 20th Century Studios feature Predator: Badlands, directed by Dan Trachtenberg. The issue arrives November 12, just days after the film opens in theaters on November 7.

Written by Ethan Sacks (Star Wars: Bounty Hunters) with art by Elvin Ching in his Marvel debut, the comic is produced in close collaboration with Trachtenberg, who contributes a foreword. The story follows a young Yautja warrior named Dek on a mission to recover lost technology, leading to an encounter with an ancient threat.

The film stars Elle Fanning and Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi and introduces a new chapter of the Predator saga, set in the future on a remote planet. The prequel comic expands on that world, introducing key characters and events that connect directly to the movie.

Predator: Badlands #1 will feature multiple variant covers and is available for preorder now at comic shops.
