Machiko Noguchi is the only human known to have lived among the extraterrestrial hunters known as Predatorsand she's had plenty of up- close-and-personal experience with another deadly, otherworldly life form, the xenomorph Aliens, hunting the beasts alongside her Predator hosts. Machiko thought those days were long past, but now a long-lost rival clan of warlike Predators has emerged, using specially bred Aliens as weapons, and both Predators and humans are threatened. Now, Machiko must again don her Predator armor and negotiate a possible alliance with the very same race that made trophies of humans for centuries. And when you "negotiate" with Predators, there will be blood! Featuring the creative dream team of original _AvP_ writer Randy Stradley, superstar penciller Rick Leonardi, inker Mark Pennington, colorist Wes Dzioba, and stunning cover art from Raymond Swanland, _Aliens vs. Predator: Three World War_ ties together story threads introduced in the 1989 _AvP_ series, _Aliens: More Than Human_, and _Predator: Prey to the Heavens_, setting the stage for the most epic _AvP_ brawl ever imagined.
