Surprising, but at the same time also a no brainer. Disney owns Fox now, after all. It was only ever a question of when whatever deal Dark Horse had with Fox would expire. And yeesh... what does Dark Horse even have left now?

And Finch is a Marvel guy now?

By the way, it's been confirmed that the comic based on the original Predator script has been canned due to this.
