After tearing his way through the Marvel Universe with battles against Hulk, Spider-Man, X-Men and Fantastic Four, Toho’s King of the Monsters will find himself squaring off against the combined strength of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes in June as Marvel Comics releases the one-shot Godzilla vs. Avengers.
The fifth in a series of six crossover one-shots, Godzilla vs. Avengers is written by David F. Walker (Planet of the Apes) with art from George Jeanty (Star Wars: Mace Windu) and will pit the iconic kaiju against Brian Michael Bendis’ New Avengers lineup from his groundbreaking run.
“As a child, I was raised on Godzilla movies, and as an adult, the New Avengers was a beautiful reminder of why I love comics,” Walker shared. “The lineup of iconic characters in the New Avengers was a beautiful mix of quirky personalities and big adventures that kept me coming back every month. Bringing Godzilla and the New Avengers together for an epic showdown has allowed me to work with characters I have loved for a long time, in a way that I hope is as entertaining for fans to read as it was for me to write.”
“There are few things in life that feel better then when you get to recreate your childhood passions as a ‘serious’ adult,” Jeanty shared. “Drawing this one-shot allowed me to package two things I loved in my youth, Godzilla and the Avengers, and put it in a comic book! It has been a joy drawing these pages. I hope everyone who picks up this book will see all the love that went into to it.”
Godzilla vs. Avengers #1 will go on sale on June 18th 2025.
