This 1980s-set showdown follows the recent Godzilla vs. Fantastic Four and Godzilla vs. Hulk one-shots. The story picks up after Secret Wars, with Peter Parker still adjusting to his new symbiote suit. He'll need every bit of its power to face the King of the Monsters.

Joe Kelly (The Amazing Spider-Man relaunch writer) pens the script, with art by Nick Bradshaw (Wolverine and the X-Men), and cover art by Bradshaw, Lee Garbett, and Greg Land.

"The moment I heard about an '80s-set Godzilla/Spidey crossover, I practically jumped for it," Kelly shared. "This book is pure fun, pitting two icons against each other in a chaotic '80s setting. Nick Bradshaw perfectly captures the absurdity while giving Godzilla and Spidey (in his awesome black suit!) the gravitas they deserve. It's a love letter with a monster-sized roar!"

This isn't the first superhero vs. Godzilla crossover; DC's Justice League vs. Godzilla vs. Kong series (with a sequel in the works) featured the MonsterVerse versions. Marvel's series, however, stars the classic Toho Godzilla.

This announcement follows the reveal of IDW's Godzilla vs. Los Angeles #1, a charity anthology benefiting wildfire relief.
