Marvel is set to explore the thrilling scenario of Godzilla rampaging through their universe in a new series of crossover one-shot specials. IGN has exclusively revealed the third installment in this series, titled Godzilla vs. Spider-Man #1.

This latest addition follows the releases of Godzilla vs. Fantastic Four #1 in March and Godzilla vs. Hulk #1 in April. Godzilla vs. Spider-Man #1 is set in the early '80s, specifically after the events of 1984's Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars. In the story, Peter Parker, fresh from Battleworld and dealing with the effects of his new alien symbiote costume, must confront Godzilla's destructive path through the city.
The creative team behind this issue includes writer Joe Kelly, who is also set to helm the upcoming relaunch of The Amazing Spider-Man series, and artist Nick Bradshaw, known for his work on Wolverine and the X-Men. The cover art is brought to life by Bradshaw, Lee Garbett, and Greg Land.
Joe Kelly expressed his excitement about the project, saying, "The second I heard that there was going to be a Godzilla x Spidey crossover set in the ‘80s, I almost leapt across the table to claim it. This book is a chance to go nuts and have a blast with two iconic characters and channel the chaos of the time period that I was actively collecting Spider-Man. Nick Bradshaw really captures the absurdity of the concept and the vibe I was going for, while at the same time giving Godzilla and Spidey (in his perfectly-normal-nothing-weird-here-black suit!) the prestige and gravity they deserve. It's a love letter served with an earth-shattering roar!"
This crossover isn't the first time Godzilla has clashed with Western superheroes; DC recently released Justice League vs. Godzilla vs. Kong, with a sequel planned. However, while the DC series focuses on the MonsterVerse versions of Godzilla and King Kong, Marvel's issues highlight the classic Toho Godzilla.
Additionally, this announcement follows the reveal of IDW's Godzilla vs. Los Angeles #1, an anthology special aimed at raising funds for wildfire relief.
Godzilla vs. Spider-Man #1 is slated for release on April 30, 2025.
