Godzilla's reign of terror shifts from Tokyo to the United States in IDW Publishing and Toho's new series, Godzilla vs. America. Following the Chicago installment, the series continues its destructive path with Godzilla vs. Los Angeles #1, a four-story anthology showcasing Godzilla's attack on the City of Angels. The creative team boasts renowned artists including Gabriel Hardman, J. Gonzo, Dave Baker, and Nicole Goux.

The release timing of Godzilla vs. Los Angeles #1 coincides unfortunately with the devastating wildfires impacting Los Angeles. Acknowledging the sensitivity of the situation, IDW has pledged to donate all proceeds from the comic's sales to the Book Industry Charitable Foundation (Binc), supporting bookstores and comic shops affected by the fires. This commitment is detailed in a letter to retailers and readers, emphasizing the publisher's dedication to its community and highlighting the unintentional mirroring of real-world events by the comic's theme. The letter also clarifies that the comic's themes explore the human condition in the face of overwhelming tragedy, not capitalizing on the recent disaster.
Associate editor Nicolas Niño shared his enthusiasm for the project, emphasizing the collaboration with Los Angeles-based artists and the comic's portrayal of Angelenos uniting against Godzilla. He highlights the diverse stories featured, including Godzilla battling giant lowrider mechs and navigating the city's subway system, emphasizing the celebratory spirit of the comic despite the challenging circumstances. The donation to Binc is further highlighted as a positive response to the wildfires.
Godzilla vs. Los Angeles #1 will be available April 30, 2025, with final orders due March 24, 2025. For further updates on upcoming comic book releases, explore anticipated titles from Marvel and DC in 2025.
