THE DEATH OF GODZILLA TO FEATURE HOMAGE COVER BY COMIC ICON DAN JURGENS
 
"[The Kai-Sei era is] one of the most original and interesting takes on the Godzilla mythology in comic book form that I've ever read." - Robbie Billups, Pop Culture Philosophers
 
Press release
LOS ANGELES, CA (October 22, 2025) – The King of the Monsters is dead, long live the King of the Monsters.

2026 starts with a bang on January 7th in writer Tim Seeley and artist Nikola Čižmešija’s​ GODZILLA #6. This key issue of the blockbuster series will feature the gripping death of the iconic kaiju, and to celebrate the massive moment, comic book icon Dan Jurgens (The Death of Superman) has crafted a jaw-dropping “Death of” homage cover. As for how the pop culture icon falls, fans will have to read the issue themselves for the full story!
​
“When the good folks at IDW asked about the possibility of a special 'Death of Godzilla' cover that would play off the iconic cover that Brett Breeding and I did for Superman #75, I was definitely up for it,” remarked Jurgens. ”I’ve always been a fan of the big guy but hadn’t had a chance to draw him so this was the perfect way to scratch that itch. It was great fun to be able to contribute!”
 
“Allowing IDW to ‘kill’ Godzilla only six issues in to the new Kai-sei Era series just goes to show how much trust TOHO International has in both rock-star writer Tim Seeley and Eisner winning Godzilla editor Jake Williams,” stated Aaron John Gregory, Godzilla Product Development Manager. “These types of comic events cannot be handled lightly. In '92, as a young teenager I waited in a long line to buy a copy of Superman #75, ‘The Death of Superman’, and was blown away by the consequential brutality in those pages. I can tell you that the incredible team behind our new Kai-Sei era of Godzilla have delivered on that level; with all the electrifying excitement and pummeling panache you’ve come to expect in this series. You may need a kaiju-sized Kleenex.”

In true comic book fashion, this will not be the end of the beloved monster. In February’s GODZILLA #7 from writer Tim Seeley and artist Hendry Prasetya, fans will witness the mysterious return of Godzilla… freed from the constraints of its physical body and unleashed as its most powerful form ever: Kai-Sei Energy Godzilla!
​
“Comics should be insane. And personally, I can't think of a more insane way to end arc 1 of the first ongoing Godzilla series in over a decade than KILLING GODZILLA,” commented editor Jake Williams. “For anyone waiting to check out this series​ – now's the time to jump on. We're delivering a Godzilla unlike any other, and finally making good on our promise to showcase 'a boy with the power of Godzilla.'”

“Our goal is always to expand and reimagine the Godzilla mythology in bold and meaningful ways,” said Kristin Parcell, General Manager of Toho International. “The IDW comics line exemplifies that vision, offering stories that challenge expectations, captivate fans, and continue to evolve the legacy of the King of the Monsters.”

Fans have until November 24, 2025 to pre-order a copy of the can’t-miss GODZILLA #6, featuring the death of Godzilla, at their local comic shop.

While G-Force is on a fool’s errand off the coast of Bermuda, Godzilla’s rampage begins in Atlanta! But…how did Godzilla appear in the middle of the country? And after so much time without a stateside Godzilla attack, why has the King of the Monsters appeared twice in the last few weeks?
