Following in a long tradition of all-American teenager [[Archie Andrews]] meeting unusual celebrities and pop culture icons, this comic book shows him meeting the galaxy's deadliest hunter, the [[Predator (alien)|Predator]]. The idea was first suggested in the Archie office and then proposed to Dark Horse, who holds the license to comics featuring the Predator character owned by [[20th Century Fox]]. The companies paired de Campi, a horror writer at Dark Horse, with Ruiz, a regular ''Archie'' artist. When the comic book was announced, many media outlets noted in their headlines that the new title was not a joke.
 
In ''Archie vs. Predator'', a trophy-hunting alien arrives on Earth and begins stalking high school student Archie Andrews and his classmates. After a number of teenagers have been killedmurded, the survivors realize they are being hunted and decide to fight back.
 
The book received positive reviews from critics, who enjoyed the strange [[Crossover (fiction)|crossover]] matchup and dark humor. The miniseries was the bestselling book for both publishers during its release and won a [[Ghastly Award]] for Best Limited Series.
