Blockbuster Crossover SONIC X GODZILLA Begins This Summer

IDW’S BLOCKBUSTER CROSSOVER EVENT BEGINS THIS SUMMER
Two pop-culture titans. Two fan-favorite universes. ONE UNSTOPPABLE COMIC EVENT.

For the first time EVER, the high-speed world of SONIC THE HEDGEHOG™ collides head-on with the earth-shaking fury of GODZILLA in comic book form and it’s going down this summer with SONIC X GODZILLA #1 from IDW Publishing.

This is not a drill.
This is speed versus scale.
This is Blue Blur meets King of the Monsters.

Written by Nick Marino (Godzilla Rivals) and illustrated by Jack Lawrence (Sonic the Hedgehog), Sonic X Godzilla is a full-throttle, stomp-heavy celebration of two legendary franchises coming together exactly the way fans have been dreaming about for years.

When Godzilla and other iconic kaiju mysteriously crash into Sonic’s world, chaos erupts instantly. And of course, when massive, world-ending power shows up, Dr. Eggman smells opportunity. The mustached menace sets his sights on harnessing kaiju energy for his latest plan of global domination but standing in his way is Sonic and his all-star crew.

We’re talking Amy, Tails, Knuckles, Shadow, and more racing, punching, and powering up to stop Eggman and send these towering monsters back to their own dimension before everything goes boom.

Writer Nick Marino describes the creative challenge as pure joy designing wild scenarios that give artist Jack Lawrence room to unleash jaw-dropping spectacle. At the heart of it all is a fascinating contrast: tiny speedsters versus colossal monsters, micro versus macro, momentum versus mass. The result? A crossover that doesn’t just mash worlds together it understands them.

And IDW’s Sonic Editorial team knew exactly what fans wanted.

This crossover goes BIG:
🔹 A mysterious portal
🔹 A massive kaiju invasion of Sonic’s world
🔹 Dr. Eggman leveling up his evil ambitions
🔹 Knuckles and Shadow charging into the chaos
🔹 Amy and Tails right in the mix
🔹 And yes… PLENTY of Sonic AND Godzilla

IDW also made it clear this kind of crossover doesn’t happen without the right partners and massive respect goes to SEGA® and Toho, who were hands-on every step of the way. Add in colorist Reggie Graham, and you’ve got a creative team firing on all cylinders to deliver a crossover that’s been worth the wait.

This isn’t just fan service.
This is event comics done right.
