Eggman in Sonic the Hedgehog x Godzilla #1

I've been hitting the press circuit to promote Sonic the Hedgehog x Godzilla, talking to some wonderful people about this exciting crossover that's been years in the making. This post was originally intended to get you totally up to speed on everything I've been doing over the past couple of months, but frankly I just don't think I can put it all into one post right now. A big reason for that is I've been going through a significant life change by getting separated from my wife Rosie. It was a tough decision that wasn't reached lightly, but we eventually felt it would be for the best. So I'm sure you can imagine that blogging hasn't been at the forefront of my mind.

I'm in my own place now, focusing on getting ready for the imminent release of Sonic x Godzilla and running a small comic shop inside of Crafted at the Port of Los Angeles, where you can find me most every weekend. But not this weekend! That's because I'll be a guest at Fan Expo Anaheim.

Speaking of conventions, my attendance was recently announced for Portland's Rose City Comic Con and San Diego's Sonic Blast. I'll also be at San Diego Comic-Con in late July, and my schedule for that show should be released soon, including signings with SxG cover artist Natalie Haines as well as a panel appearance or two.

As for other appearances, I've had the opportunity to do some great interviews recently. The best place to catch them all is on my YouTube interview playlist. I have a similar playlist for reviews of my comics, which is my way of segueing into the reviews of Sonic the Hedgehog x Godzilla #1 that've been hitting the internet for the past few weeks. I'm thrilled to say the reception for our debut issue has been strong. We're currently sitting at 8.2 on the review aggregator ComicBookRoundup.com.

Okay I'm getting tired so it's time to wrap this up! I'm doing a Sonic x Godzilla Reddit AMA when I wake up so I need my beauty sleep. I'll leave you with some fun images as I get ready to drift off to dreamland. Catch ya soon!

Nick Marino podcasting

I've been making the rounds since Sonic the Hedgehog X Godzilla was announced. Most recently, my in-house recording for IDW's new Creator X Creator podcast dropped. I'm in one-on-one conversation with the new ongoing Star Trek writer, Chris Cantwell, and we dig into the philosophical ramifications of our upcoming comics. Here's that interview followed by three more great SxG conversations with my friends, both old and new.

Sonic X Godzilla #1 by Jack Lawrence and Reggie Graham

This summer I'm teaming up with Jack Lawrence, Reggie Graham, and Ed Dukeshire for Sonic the Hedgehog's BIGGEST challenge yet! Godzilla is stomping its way to Station Square for a comic book crossover of massive proportions. Announced at the start of IGN Fan Fest 2026, Sonic the Hedgehog X Godzilla brings together Toho and Sega's most famous characters in a huge event miniseries from IDW Publishing.

Sonic X Godzilla fans

My journey with Sonic X Godzilla began years ago in the middle of 2022, so it's honestly such a relief to be able to talk about this project now. I'm honored by the ecstatic fan reaction to our reveal and I can't wait to share more as we get closer to the first issue's release. That said, our IGN announcement includes a short interview that'll have to tide you over for the time being. For now, I'll let these amazing covers by Jack and Reggie, Mauro Fonseca, Min Ho Kim, Clayton Crain, Mico Suayan, Natalie Haines, and Miles Arq do the talking!
