ANOTHER UPDATE: IDW Publishing has released some more information about the Godzilla Rivals books announced at SDCC 2022, including a release date for my Biollante Vs. Destoroyah comic, currently slated for Spring 2023.

UPDATE: The panel was @#$%ing awesome!

Tons of fantastic fans turned out to hear us talk about the rad Godzilla comics we've been working on and I loved it.

Nola Pfau from the three-peat Eisner-winning WWAC did a totally sick tweet thread about the panel, covering all of the announcements including the upcoming Godzilla Rivals: Biollante vs. Destoroyah comic book that I'm writing with art by Sean Dove. IDW shared the pencils for our variant cover drawn by Andrew MacLean.

ORIGINAL POST:

Rosie and I will be on IDW's Godzilla comics panel at Comic-Con in San Diego on Friday, July 22 at 4pm in Room 4. Rosie's incredible Godzilla comic is on sale in just a couple of weeks, and I hope everyone gets to see a ton of Oliver Ono's rad art. As for why I'm on the panel, well... you'll just have to wait and see!

I wrote a Beast Machines campfire story for the Transformers: Beast Wars 2022 Annual, in comic book stores on April 20, 2022 from IDW Publishing. Sitting with me underneath the night sky are Andrea Bell (art), Jake M Wood (letters), and Jazmine Joyner (edits).

Here's a little preview of the weird world you'll visit in The Morphlings...

I hope you dig what you see! I'm a huge Beast Machines fan, so I was stoked to bring a bit of that flavor to the IDW comics.

And... the first review of the Beast Wars 2022 Annual is already in, thanks to Megan Peters at ComicBook.com!

UPDATED WITH A SNEAK PEEK FROM HASBRO PULSE! In their April 12, 2022 Fan First Tuesday video, Hasbro revealed a first look at Andy Bell's art for our Transformers tale. It's a spoopy Beast Machines inspired campfire story called The Morphlings.
