Alien vs. Predator: Fire and Stone #1

Part of Dark Horse's ambitious 2014 crossover event, this opening chapter drops readers straight into the collision of two of science fiction's most fearsome species. Ariel Olivetti illustrates the series while E. M. Gist's cover painting sets a visceral tone — a wounded, snarling Predator struggles against a human figure looming above, the pair surrounded by a ring of Xenomorphs closing in from every angle. Writer Christopher Sebela kicks off what promises to be a tense four-issue run pitting survival instincts against apex predators on multiple fronts.
