Predator: Life and Death #3

Part three of the penultimate chapter of this 2016 Dark Horse miniseries arrives with a cover by David Palumbo that demands attention: a heavily armored Predator stands blood-spattered and battle-worn, its glowing red eyes fixed forward with unsettling calm beneath a sleek ceremonial helmet, clutching a staff weapon as the tagline "This Time It's War!" makes the stakes unmistakably clear. Dan Abnett's script paired with Brian Albert Thies's interior art and Rain Beredo's colors brings the Life and Death saga to a fever pitch. If you've been following this crossover event, this penultimate issue looks like exactly the kind of confrontation the series has been building toward.
