За незапам’ятних часів позаземні істоти, відомі як Хижаки, прибували на Землю задля полювання на наймогутніших воїнів людства.
Але тепер уцілілі повстали проти мисливців — і Хижаки стали здобиччю!

Since time immemorial, the aliens known as Predators have come to Earth to hunt us. Now a group of survivors of those visits have begun a hunt of their own.

* A new direction in Predator stories!

''Warner and Velasco each have a firm grasp on the inherent appeal of the Predator franchise, and deserve all the credit in the world for managing to pay homage to that while simultaneously flipping the entire 'hunter and prey' dynamic on its head.'' -Big Comic Page

From the islands of the South Pacific to the mountains of Afghanistan, the Hunters go wherever the Predators appear--even if it's in a war zone and into conflict with a mysterious government group hunting the same prey!
Despite the casualties suffered during their first mission, the Predator Hunters are on the prowl again!
* New Predator movie coming soon!
''A true testament to the savagery of the Predator franchise, this series just doesn't quit...''--Infinite Earths

As the world burns, the Tokyo Gantz team manage to find their Gantz orb and use it to communicate with fellow warriors from across the globe in order to recruit them for a last-ditch assault to free the humans imprisoned on the leviathan alien mothership. And while the orb can still create powerful weapons and teleport the Gantz fighters, it informs them that it no longer has the power to heal or regenerate them. If they die on this mission, they stay dead! Hiroya Oku's Gantz is adult manga at its most challenging: violent, bizarre, erotic, and created with stunning craft and fierce imagination.

As helpless humans are brought aboard the alien mothership, the horror of war looks like a picnic compared to what the monstrous invaders have in store for their prisoners. And Kei Kurono may have only one chance to find his love before she suffers a bizarre fate worse than death!

After what seems like a lifetime trying to reconstruct the events that led to her death, Ghost finally nears the white-hot core of the truth. But like pieces of a broken window, the shards of the past can be dangerous and razor-sharp, and sometimes the truth goes deeper than anyone would want. And for the Spectral Avenger, a past revealed may mean a future destroyed.

On a distant, frozen world, "artificial persons" are manufactured in discreet seclusion. With formidable new security synthetics coming online, how better to test their mettle than against a hive of deadly xenomorphs? But as "socialization specialist" Jean DuPaul sees her ever-more-human android charges sent to their destruction, she learns that the most savage species in the universe is man. From writer John Layman, creator of the award-winning Chew, and acclaimed artist Sam Kieth comes Aliens: Inhuman Condition, a hardcover graphic novella from the pages of Dark Horse Presents that shines a dark, disturbing light on the Aliens universe.

What if, in A New Hope, instead of destroying the Death Star, Luke's proton torpedo had malfunctioned? What if, in The Empire Strikes Back, Han had not arrived on that Hoth ice field in time to save Luke from freezing to death? What if, in Return of the Jedi, Leia's thermal detonator destroyed Jabba the Hutt's palace before she could rescue Han?

Collected here are three different tales where one thing happens differently than it did in the original trilogy of Star Wars films. The familiar players — Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Han Solo, and Darth Vader — are launched onto new trajectories that send them toward dire consequences and unexpected futures!

As the aliens' merciless war machine continues its systematic slaughter of humanity, Gantz teams from across Japan are assembled against their will for a desperate assault, a strike at the heart of the invaders' mother ship. Standing against the most powerful and lethal foes they have yet faced, will the Gantz warriors seize the moment that turns the tide of the struggle, or will their sacrifice serve only as a final, futile gesture before mankind's extinction? Hiroya Oku's Gantz is adult manga at its most challenging: violent, bizarre, erotic, and created with stunning craft and fierce imagination!

With America in ruins and Gantz teams the world over slaughtered, an armada of war machines the size of skyscrapers rains down on Japan and begins the systematic extermination of the population. But even without the support of the now-silent Gantz orb, the former Osaka Gantz warriors take to the streets to fight back in what can only be a suicide mission!

Earth's skies turn crimson. A massive, unknown flying craft lays waste to the planet's leading military superpower. Chaos reigns! Gantz teams from all over the world gather in Italy only to be instantly overwhelmed and ripped to pieces by an endless stream of foes. And just as their destruction seems assured, the Gantz warriors are transferred home and released without explanation from their duty by the Gantz orb. Is this a reward for courageous service or simply an admission that Armageddon is now inevitable?

The shape-shifting, 100-point alien boss has finally been destroyed - along with much of Osaka - and Kei Kurono is back on the team, resurrected after his second death. But good times never last as the Gantz orb reveals a countdown clock showing that Earth has just over a week before catastrophe strikes, and the Tokyo team is whisked to Italy to face a new set of deadly foes on what may be their final mission!

Empowered v 7

VICTORY OR OBLIVION! As the Osaka Gantz team falls to the alien monster boss, Kaze of the Tokyo team takes the fight to the super-beast to save the mortally wounded little Takeshi. But even the powerful Kaze is no match for the shape-shifting fiend, and the Tokyo team musters a desperate offensive that could turn the tide - or seal their doom!

As the mind-boggling 100-point alien boss unleashes its horrors upon the overmatched Osaka Gantz team, the Tokyo team is forced by the Gantz orb to join the battle - but even their numbers fail to turn the tide! When all hope seems lost, the legendary alien fighter Hachiro Oka returns from exile and enters the battlefield with his fearsome arsenal of weapons. But if the mighty Oka falls to the shape-shifting monstrosity, could this be humanity's last stand as well?

The battle-hardened Osaka Gantz team has fought with courage and fury to wipe out most of the lower-level (but highly lethal) alien invaders. Now firing on all cylinders, the OG's set out to go toe-to-toe with the insanely powerful boss-class offworlders, including the elusive, shape-shifting "100 Point" boss, a creature that can appear as beautiful as it is deadly. The Tokyo Gantz squad can do little more than watch as the Osaka fighters soon realize that the constantly changing forms of the boss monster may be more than even they can handle!

A spectacle without precedent unfolds in the streets of Osaka, leaving a path of complete and utter destruction as the battle with the aliens in Dotombori continues to escalate. Beset by a growing number of ghouls, each more deadly than the last, even the battle-hardened Gantz warriors find their numbers dwindling. In the midst of the mayhem, Kato must choose between saving innocent bystanders - or himself. Can Kato's sense of justice melt the frozen hearts of the Osaka team?

A new chapter in the Gantz saga brings with it a new level of action and mayhem! The alien-hunting Gantz warriors are transported to their new mission, leaving behind their fallen comrades, Kurono and Izumi. Given no time to mourn, they find themselves in a completely unfamiliar location, well beyond the confines of Tokyo in the Dotombori district of Osaka. Even more surprising is an encounter with another group in Gantz suits. Are the members of this unknown team allies... or deadly new foes?

Like sports, the victor is he who wants it more. Unlike sports, the loser earns extinction! Mankind has fought for survival over countless millennia, but nothing has threatened humanity's existence like the murderous Alien scourge. While some have tried to use the creatures' deadly abilities to serve their own selfish ends, no one can dance with the devil, and ultimately only one species must prevail. To that end, men have turned their own lethal instincts and cold intellect against the monsters, creating engineered plagues, cybernetic fighting suits, and even bogus android aliens, but survival rides not on technology, but on the primacy of the most deep-rooted, feral instincts.
