Publisher's Summary
Mankind's most lethal adversaries battle for supremacy, and whoever wins — we lose. In a skyliner high above the Alien-contaminated earth, Caryn Delacroix can't sleep. Terrifying images of pursuit, disfigurement, and bloody death have invaded her peaceful dreams in her safe and privileged world. But they're only nightmares... or are they? The beautiful trophy-consort of corporate magnate Lucien Delacroix soon discovers that nightmares do come true and there are fates worse than death — when a Predator comes to call.
Featuring the smash-hit AVP epic Deadliest of the Species, written by Chris Claremont, plus other exciting AVP tales by a host of top comics creators.
Trivia
- Several of the individual comics in the Omnibus releases had their titles altered; from Aliens vs. Predator Volume 2, Genocide was originally titled Xenogenesis.
- The image used on the cover of the omnibus is taken from the trade paperback release of the comic series Aliens vs. Predator: Deadliest of the Species.
- The Web is presented in its original black and white in the Omnibus, thus being the only Aliens vs. Predator Omnibus story not to be colored since its original publication.
