Godzilla Goes Carnage in New Marvel Comic Variant

Toho and Marvel have previewed the final issue in the crossover miniseries, Godzilla Destroys the Marvel Universe, which includes an awesome variant cover that merges the King of the Monsters with the iconic Spider-Man villain. The book, written by Gerry Duggan and illustrated by artist Javier Garrón, sees a previously dormant Godzilla angrily awakened, and soon thereafter embarking on a destructive rampage that no hero can face alone. Interestingly, famed Godzilla concept artist Shinji Nishikawa is also listed as doing a “Fan Favorite Variant Cover,” so stay tuned for that exciting reveal!

Marvel’s official synopsis for Issue 5 teases the final battle, stating:

“Make way, True Believers, as Black Panther debuts the mightiest weapon the Marvel Universe has ever seen before in this earth-shattering showdown between Godzilla and Marvel MECHA! As the two titans trade blows, the rest of the heroes race to exploit Godzilla’s mysterious relationship to vibranium to help slow down the leviathan – but as the war between the King of the Monsters and the heroes of the Marvel Universe rages on, only one thing is certain: For whoever is left standing in the wreckage, the Marvel Universe will never be the same again!”

Godzilla Destroys the Marvel Universe #5 will see a main cover and Virgin Variant by Mark Brooks, a “Marvelized Carnage-Zilla Variant” by Dave Wachter, an Action Figure Variant by John Tyler Christopher, a Variant by Cory Smith, a Fan Favorite Variant by Shinji Nishikawa, and a Variant by Pere Pérez. The book will be available anywhere you find comics on November 19. We’ll update Kaiju United readers with the rest of the variant covers as they become available.
