If there's one kaiju capable of corrupting the isolated beauty of Iceland, it's the Smog Monster Hedorah. Fortunately, humankind won't be alone in fending off the toxic tyrant as Mothra joins the comic book melee in Godzilla Rivals: Mothra Vs. Hedorah from IDW Publishing this June.
Written by Josh Trujillo (Blue Beetle) with art by Joshua Cornillon (Pool Boys), the 52-page one-shot comic will feature an A cover by Cornillon, a B cover by Rebecca Ann, and a retailer incentive cover by Sara Pitre-Durocher.
From IDW's official solicitation description:
A strange meteor crashes outside a small Icelandic village just after their annual Mothra festival, suddenly bringing the remote town to the attention of a dying trillionaire. As he seeks the secrets to eternal life in the crater, twin villagers Astrid and Aurora deal with the death of their festival-organizing grandmother. But what is waiting to seep out into the village, and who could defend it? It’s a cycle of death and rebirth in Godzilla Rivals: Mothra Vs. Hedorah!
Godzilla Rivals: Mothra Vs. Hedorah arrives in comic book stores and online on June 25 for $7.99. Check out all three covers below:
