December 2025 IDW Publishing Godzilla Catalogue

IDW Publishing has released their December 2025 solicitations ahead of the busy holiday season coming up, and there’s three great options for Godzilla fans who are following along. First up, the inaugural arc of the main ongoing Kai-Sei title concludes with a climactic sixth issue. The fate of the world is in Jacen’s hands, and the book itself promises to be one that fans will not want to miss. On the galactic end, some interesting new plot points are beginning to brew in Starship Godzilla Issue 3, as the crew expands their list of contacts. Finally, for those looking for something a little more fun and self-contained, there’s also the second issue of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles x Godzilla, which features a pretty awesome Shredder Godzilla cover.

Below are the full listings for each title as well as each available variant cover. There is one mysterious variant for Godzilla Issue 6, so be wary of potential spoilers when shopping for your variant covers, as that may very well be a reference to a certain 1995 Godzilla flick from the Heisei era.
