Line editor Jake Williams shared his vision, stating, "We aim to make Godzilla’s world as engaging as the King himself." Expect superpowered humans, kaiju hybrids, and narratives unfolding across Earth and space. Williams emphasized the comic’s goal to deliver stories that thrive within the vibrant universe of comic books: dynamic, daring, and undeniably cool.
IDW Dark: Horror Beyond Expectation
