Their motivations for visiting our planet are completely different: one alien wants to use the brains of Earth's smartest scientists, while the other alien wants to kill and fillet some of our toughest warriors. Both Exeter from the 1955 sci-fi film This Island Earth, and the Predator from 1987's action-horror flick of the same name, come with their own agenda, but both creatures have been depicted in great detail by artist Ken Taylor in a new set of limited edition posters.
Following his artwork's three-week run in June at the Mondo Gallery in Austin, TX, Mondo has announced they'll release four Ken Taylor posters based on This Island Earth and Predator sometime this Tuesday, July 1st, via their Twitter account. Taylor created two identical posters for both This Island Earth and Predator, with the second posters revealed as variant color prints. The posters range from $50 to $80 in price and range from 150 to 400 in quantity, depending on the poster. All posters are 24"x36", hand numbered and signed by Ken Taylor, and printed by D&L Screenprinting. We have more details and an early look at the posters for you to check out:
