‘GODZILLA VS EVERYTHING’ UNLEASHES THE FIRST-EVER KAI-SEI ERA COMIC BOOK EVENT

Press release

LOS ANGELES, CA (October 15, 2026) – GODZILLA’s most epic crossover comic book event is stomping into comic shops March 2027.

From New York Times bestselling writer Tim Seeley and acclaimed artist Fero Pe comes GODZILLA VS EVERYTHING, the first four-issue crossover event from the celebrated Kai-Sei era line of comics at IDW Publishing. Since the Kai-Sei era made its unforgettable debut in 2025, everything in the connected universe of comics - GODZILLA, STARSHIP GODZILLA, DEADZONE, and THE HORROR OF GODZILLA - has been building up to this jaw-dropping blockbuster. Godzilla has achieved its most powerful form yet and has its sights set on destroying the world. Can the combined forces of Earth - and beyond - stop the King of the Monsters, or will Godzilla finally destroy the world?

"When I started work with editor Jake Williams and IDW on GODZILLA, the big pitch was this was going to play like a universe of titles, but also as a universe of characters,” commented Seeley. “From the beginning, the goal was they'd all come together at some point as friends and/or enemies in a proper comic universe event title. Well, we're here, and all the meticulous plotting of our creative crew leads to a wild, weird, terrifying crossover comic that puts Godzilla, the kaiju and our cast through every epic story beat you've ever wanted."

Don’t miss the buildup to GODZILLA VS EVERYTHING in STARSHIP GODZILLA: INVASION X (#1 on sale now), GODZILLA: REVENGE OF THE DEADZONE (#1 on sale October 28), and the ongoing GODZILLA series (#13 on sale now).

Since the launch of the Kai-Sei era in July of 2025, IDW Publishing has sold more than 1 million comics and books featuring Godzilla. Contact a comic shop near you to pre-order GODZILLA VS EVERYTHING #1 (of 4), plus GODZILLA #17, the finale of the hit ongoing series which sets the stage for the must-read event.
