'''''Alien Loves Predator''''' (sometimes shortened as '''''ALP''''') is a [[webcomic]] written by Bernie Hou. It spoofs the ''[[Alien vs. Predator]]'' franchise. Reversing the adversarial relationship depicted in the comics, games, books and movies, ''ALP'' presents an [[Alien (creature in Alien franchise)|Alien]] (named Abe) and a [[Predator (alien)|Predator]] (named Preston) as friends and [[roommate]]s in modern-day New York City.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.sequentialtart.com/reports.php?ID=3718&issue=2005-01-01 |title=Ginger Meyerson, ''Sequential Tart'' |publisher=Sequentialtart.com |date=February 1, 2005 |accessdate=2011-07-20 |archive-date=March 22, 2007 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070322224519/http://www.sequentialtart.com/reports.php?ID=3718&issue=2005-01-01 |url-status=live }}</ref><ref name=Taylor>Robert Taylor, [https://web.archive.org/web/20071011163001/http://wizarduniverse.com/magazine/wizard/000862589.cfm Mingling Species: Bernie Hou Q&A], ''Wizard'' magazine, July 10, 2006</ref>

The first issue of ''ALP'' was released in 2004. On August 28, 2008, the author of the strip announced that ''Alien Loves Predator'' would be updated sporadically, abandoning its regular weekly format. After a short run of a different webcomic, ''If You See Something'', Bernie Hou announced that he would once again be running the strip and updating it weekly. It stopped updating in June 2011 and as of June 2024 appears to be offline.
