Godzilla: Aftershock is the prequel comic to King of the Monsters movie!

Legendary Comics has announced a brand new Monsterverse graphic novel titled Godzilla: Aftershock! This new comic will take place between the events of Gareth Edwards' 2014 Godzilla movie and the upcoming sequel King of the Monsters, directed by Michael Dougherty.

Written by Arvid Nelson and illustrated by Drew Edward Johnson, Godzilla: Aftershock takes place after the first film and will introduce readers to a new threat which is bringing with it devastating earthquakes, and unstoppable urge to destroy.

The brilliant and driven Monarch operative Dr. Emma Russell races to stop the threat as clues emerge to reveal a terrible secret—a tragedy, of apocalyptic proportions from the distant past that changed the course of human history, is returning to threaten it once more. A shadowy figure stalks Emma’s every move as she travels the globe to uncover secrets, while Godzilla clashes in an ancient rivalry as old as the earth itself. The fate of the world lies in the balance in an epic confrontation that no Godzilla fan will want to miss.
