Godzilla
On August 12, 2026, Godzilla collides with* The War of the Worlds*, H.G. Wells’ classic 1898 sci-fi novel that has since been adapted across radio, film, television, stage, games, comics, and more. Among its most famous adaptations are Orson Welles’ legendary 1938 CBS radio broadcast by the Mercury Theatre on the Air, the acclaimed 1953 and 2005 film adaptations, and the BBC television miniseries.
Now, The War of the Worlds and Godzilla are set to collide in IDW Publishing’s* Godzilla’s Monsterpiece Theatre Presents: Roar of the Worlds* #1 by writer and artist Kyle Baker. The 48-page one-shot will be available in comic shops and digitally for $7.99, serving as the latest installment in IDW’s Godzilla’s Monsterpiece Theatre Presents anthology, which reimagines classic works of literature by inserting Godzilla into their stories for unexpected crossover chaos.

While the Wizard of Oz release is still several months away, fans of the Kaiju only have to wait less than a month for the War of the Worlds crossover. Fans looking for a better idea of what they can expect from such a mashup can find the official synopsis below, which also confirms that the issue will contain part three of Robin Hood and the Monster of Nottingham :
In this oversize one-shot, comic book legend Kyle Baker joins the fun to help Godzilla defend the planet against invaders from Mars! The War of the Worlds regaled readers with the story of what happened in England when faraway invaders arrived. This comic asks a much more important question… what was going on in Japan? The answer: Martians were getting smashed left and right by the King of the Monsters!
And that’s not all — this issue contains part three of Tom Scioli’s “Robin Hood and the Monster of Nottingham.
IDW Publishing’s* Godzilla’s Monsterpiece Theatre Presents anthology is one of the most fun ** Godzilla*** projects in recent years, and hopefully, it is just the beginning of more wild crossovers for the King of Monsters.
***Godzilla’s Monsterpiece Theatre Presents: Roar of the Worlds #1 ***from IDW Publishing will be available to read on August 12, 2026!
