Everything that this seismic story has built towards is here. We’ve hit the climax! With twists and turns and battles and blood, Godzilla Destroys the Marvel Universe Issue 4 is the best issue of this crossover we’ve seen yet and is a magnum opus penultimate issue. The main highlight? Godzilla and Hulk have a devastating rematch bigger and more bulldozing than previous. Meanwhile, Black Panther and the rest of Marvel’s gang come together to form a mecha worthy of a final battle to save the Earth. This issue hits every note in what a Marvel x Godzilla crossover should be!
The Fantastic Four and Captain America can only wait with angst in the negative zone as Black Panther begins his plan of building a mecha using vibranium, a weakness to Godzilla. Bruce Banner, with a small sense of remorse, grows giant-size and the main spotlight of the issue gets off and running immediately. Godzilla and Hulk’s fight is extremely well done, with seismic art and transitions and palpable intensity. The fight is not just a climactic, action-filled bout like a movie; it is a genuine, bloody scrap fest that is realistic to imagine if two beasts like the Hulk and Godzilla came to clash.
Godzilla’s next challenger, the King of Atlantis Namor, brings forth a familiar kaiju that Showa-era fans will be delighted to see. The action continues to climb, and it reaches yet another climax, and that’s right where the issue concludes! The next and concluding issue cannot come quickly enough as any reader is left on the edge of their seat after a cliff-hanger like this one!
Gerry Duggan’s dialogue is crisp and clever as usual, and Javier Garrón’s art depicts the scale of Godzilla and Hulk’s battle expertly. The team has brought it throughout the entire crossover and fans can expect they will bring it all together in the final issue coming out November 19th, 2025!
Check out the main cover by Mark Brooks, and variants by Sergio Davila, A Co and more!
