Following the release of Godzilla vs. Fantastic Four #1 and Godzilla vs. Hulk #1, this new installment transports readers back to a classic era. The story unfolds after the events of 1984's Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars, shortly after Peter Parker's return from Battleworld and his initial struggles with the alien symbiote. This means Spider-Man, in his iconic black suit, will need every ounce of his power to defend his city from the King of the Monsters.
Joe Kelly, recently announced as the writer for the upcoming Amazing Spider-Man relaunch, pens this explosive crossover. The art is brought to life by Nick Bradshaw (known for his work on Wolverine and the X-Men), with cover art contributions from Bradshaw, Lee Garbett, and Greg Land.
"The moment I heard about a '80s-set Godzilla/Spidey crossover, I practically jumped for it," Kelly shared with IGN. "This comic lets us go wild with two iconic characters, capturing the chaotic energy of that era. Nick Bradshaw perfectly embodies the absurdity and gives Godzilla and Spidey (in his totally-normal-black-suit!) the gravitas they deserve. It's a love letter with an earth-shattering roar!"
This isn't the first time Godzilla has faced Western superheroes; DC's Justice League vs. Godzilla vs. Kong (with a sequel in the works) featured the MonsterVerse versions. However, Marvel's series focuses on the classic Toho Godzilla.
This announcement follows the unveiling of IDW's Godzilla vs. Los Angeles #1, a charity anthology benefiting wildfire relief efforts.
Mark your calendars! Godzilla vs. Spider-Man #1 stomps into comic shops on April 30, 2025. For more on upcoming comic releases, check out Marvel's and DC's 2025 plans.
