Earth’s Mightiest Heroes Face The King Of The Monsters In June’s ‘Godzilla Vs. Avengers’ #1
by Tony Thornley
Marvel’s first Godzilla Vs the Marvel Universe one shot hits later this month, and the King of the Kaiju’s rampage through the decades continues in June in Godzilla Vs. Avengers.
Coming from David Walker and Georges Jeanty, the one shot finds the New Avengers era team face to face with Godzilla. In the aftermath of a massive battle between the Avengers, Godzilla, Fin Fang Foom, and Jet Jaguar, S.H.I.E.L.D. has to sort out what happened. Unfortunately for them, no one is telling the same story.
“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.”
Check out the covers from Leinil Yu, Nick Bradshaw, Lee Garbett, Michael Allred, and Mitsushiro Arita and watch for Godzilla Vs Avengers #1 in June from Marvel Comics.
