Yes, this exists, and it is just as weird as you'd expect. It starts off totally Archie, with the gang going on spring break, but by issue two, things get dark and surprisingly gruesome. It's drawn in the classic Riverdale style, which makes the severed heads and exposed spines a bit more shocking. There are jokes all the while, some of them blacker than midnight in a coal mine, and a delightfully bonkers twist. It's good fun if you have a sick bent.

The tittle says it all.

I’m not really a fan of either Archie or Predator but I did want to read a comic where the cast of Archie get eviscerated by a bloodthirsty dreadlocked alien hunter! Is it worth explaining the premise? It’s a gimmicky comic in the vein of Archie Meets The Punisher. Predator comes to Riverdale and starts killing. That’s it!I was pleased that the comic delivered on its promise of blood-soaked Archie gore. Not only does Predator take out these morons but there’s no wimping out, off-panel deaths – h...

This is a 4 part series and I've read the first 3 issues (still waiting for the last one). I've never heard of Archie before and now I'm completely hooked! This book is so ridiculously fun and crazy - I love it :D and I'm seriously considering buying this one for my home library. Also - a teenage predator - how awesome is that :D

Not to be hyperbolic or anything, but this is the unsurpassed and unsurpassable greatest work in crossover comics.

Well, the Predator has officially crossed over with everyone now. More spine-ripping fun than you can shake a skull at. I gotta say this was a blast. I never knew I wanted the Predator gorely ripping the spine out of the cast of Archie until I saw it happen. Now I can't get enough. I love that's it's all drawn in the Archie style too. If you enjoy the supernatural Archie titles, you're going to dig this.

I received this from Edelweiss and Dark Horse Comics in exchange for an honest review.Honest, this book should have never been printed. It should have never been published. It should have never even been discussed. It is gruesome. It is gory. It contains the ultra-violent deaths over almost all of the favorite characters in Riverdale. I want more.Seriously, this was a clever take on the whole Predator and Archie universes. I wasn't expecting it to be as gory as it was, but the story worked. It f...

When Archie and the gang return from spring break in Costa Rica, a teenage Predator follows them back to Riverdale. Will anyone survive the carnage that ensues?Confession time: I read my share of Archie comics when I was 11-12 and have much love for the Predator. How could I not give this a chance?What do you get when you mix the saccharine, G-rated teen comedy of Archie with the wholesale carnage that is the Predator? You get a bizarre comic book the likes of which have never been seen!The firs...

Ach. Mein Gott.I couldn’t pass up the temptation to read this after I saw it on sale at my local Goodwill. I’ve never been a fan of the half-wit Archie and his pals...but I’m a HUGE fan of Predator, so you bet I was hyped to see my favorite dreadlocked alien slice his way through Riverdale in a G-rated teen “comedy” as Archie and his friends revert themselves back to the ways of primal man to escape from this alien terror!.../sGuys, this crossover truly sucks even on comedic levels. I didn’t fin...

There's not much story here. It's not clear why the Predator is hunting down the Riverdale teens other than it's a gimmick to sell comic books. The deaths are gory, but even that gets boring as the Predator isn't very creative with his kills (it happens the same way in most cases).

Oh, jaysis. Not good. Not good.Okay, so I thought this was gonna be more like Afterlife With Archie, or even the monthly, more recent Archie titles where Archie is actually pretty tolerable. It's a soap opera, but fuck it, so is Spider-Man. But this was like a 1950's Archie mag with Predator showing up at some point. Guys, I BARELY made it to the part where Predator shows up. The kids go on a spring break trip to some island, blah, blah blah.Which doesn't even make sense. Why wouldn't Predator j...

While not quite as compelling as the superior "Afterlife with Archie", or as thought-provoking as "The Married Life" storyline, the first issue of this mini-series is quite readable, and (dare I say it) enjoyable!While crossovers have long been a staple for Archie comincs (Archie meets the Punisher anyone?), I applaud Archie comics for continuing to keep ARchie in the public eye by allowing these crossovers with (apparently) minimal editoral/creative intervention.Where this first issues shines i...

So... Um... This was a book. And I read it. I'm kind of tempted to stop there, because this was just so damn weird, but I'm going to try to write something that will pass for a review. I won't bother to summarize the premise, because it's literally all there in the title and there's nothing unexpected about the plot. It reads basically like a standard Archie comic, except that there's suddenly and unexpectedly a Predator running around killing basically everyone in a surprisingly graphic and blo...

Boys never do anything right, Betty! 👱🏻‍♀️👩🏻After returning from a short Spring Break vacation at Los Peridos Resort in Costa Rica, the gang is surprised to find out they're being hunted... by a predator??? This was my second time reading an Archie graphic novel, not to mention crossover! I finally learned why Betty and Veronica Lodge are Archie Andrews best friends. The horror movie-aspect of the story is reminiscent of Scooby-Doo.I liked all the references to the original predator.

This one disappointed me. After reading "Afterlife with Archie", I was expecting a similar type story from this volume. But no, instead of being the serious, mature horror of Afterlife, this was a somewhat silly story based more in the traditional Archie universe.Now, to clarify, it's still pretty good. It's just that instead of it being something you wouldn't expect from an Archie comic, it's exactly what you'd expect. There's plenty of gore in the story, but its still laced with humor. I guess...

This review is for all 4 issues. I jumped at the chance to read this mini-series.The Predator & the Archie characters in one story. Sounded so weird I had to check it out.Bloody at times, but written/drawn in the old Archie comics style.In November this story will be released in a hardback collection. I will probably pick it up in that format as well. Whether you love the Archie comics or the Predator character, you will love this series. Comedy & blood!

"Wow! This is the most perfect beach I've ever seen! In fact . . . everything's perfect! We are going to have the best Spring Break ever!" -- Archie Andrews, tempting fate on page 2Probably the last time I perused an Archie comic book was way back in the 80's, when they used to litter the end tables (alongside Sgt. Rock) in my great-uncle's small town barber shop . . . which pretty much dove-tails with the release of Predator starring Arnold 'get to the choppah!' Schwarzenegger. That said, the c...

Like most comics from Archie, this one is surprisingly good, especially considering it has no right to be good at all with a title like Archie vs Predator.But. It is.The kids from Riverdale go on a Spring Break romp to the jungle and bring back a cursed knife and a new friend.A homicidal new friend that has apparently been playing just a little too much Mortal Kombat.There's not much to this story other than what you would expect from any comic that had the Predator running around in it. Lots of...

If you never imagined what would happen if a Predator ran into the gang from Riverdale I don't blame you, because why the hell would anyone ever imagine that? But thankfully we share this planet with people like Alex de Campi, who reminds us that the most unexpected and absurd crossovers can be the most enjoyable. Admittedly, I scoffed at the sight of this one. I've been weary since the first Alien vs. Predator film and the subsequent watering down of the Predator franchise. I figured they would...

Lately, Archie and the gang have been involved in some very strange makeovers and crossovers but Archie vs Predator may get the prize for strangest, sexiest, most violent and goriest of them all. This is definitely not the Archie of my childhood! The gang won a contest to an exotic locale for some surf, sun, and fun. However, in a pique of jealousy, Betty uses an ancient dagger to curse them all bringing a Predator to Riverdale who will kill anyone who is a perceived threat which, as it turns ou...
