New MonsterVerse series Escape from Skull Island announced by Titan Comics and Legendary

October 23, 2025 by Gary Collinson

Titan Comics and Legendary Entertainment have announced that the MonsterVerse will continue to expand with the launch of Escape from Skull Island, the official in-canon continuation of Netflix’s Skull Island: The Animated Series and the current Return to Skull Island comic series.

Launching in January, Escape from Skull Island will reunite the creative team of writer Simon Furman (Transformers) and artist Christopher Jones (Doctor Who: Once Upon a Time Lord); check out the official solicitation and covers for the first issue here…

Trapped on Skull Island, a desperate band of survivors struggles against the land’s relentless horrors while an ancient threat rises from below. But as chaos unfolds, flashbacks reveal Kong’s turbulent youth: his battles, losses, and the primal instincts that shaped him into the island’s sovereign.

Now, as hordes of monstrous beasts close in on the stranded humans, the most dangerous enemy of all regains strength to once more challenge Kong’s throne.

Escape from Skull Island #1 will go on sale on January 28th 2026.
