We said last time that Godzilla was returning to a unique place. This time, he’s returning to the original. The Horror of Godzilla is an upcoming comic book from writers Ethan S. Parker and Griffin Sheridan, alongside artist Tristan Jones, and Publisher IDW. Set in 1954 Japan, Horror of Godzilla is a retelling of Godzilla’s original attack on Tokyo, set with a horror angle. All three creatives have experience with horror; Parker and Sheridan worked on Marvel Zombies, while Jones worked on Event Horizon. The Horror of Godzilla is set in IDW’s “Kai-Sei” era, a shared world that focuses on a post-apocalyptic setting; Horror might provide some insight into how it came to be.

Of the project, editor Jake Williams had this to say, “The Horror of Godzilla is for fans of Godzilla Minus One, Shin Godzilla, and Godzilla ’54. It’s a terrifying look at the Kai-Sei era’s first Godzilla attack. It grabs the reader and places them on the ground in the middle of the most petrifying night in human history… the arrival of Godzilla. Through the power of Tristan Jones’ visceral art style, this is the first Godzilla comic we’ve released that goes 100% in on horror. It very well might become the best Godzilla comic ever made… it’s certainly the scariest.” Fans can pre-order The Horror of Godzilla ahead of its planned July release.
