SRP: $4.99What’s going on inside the Deadzone?! Find out in the second book of the KAI-SEI ERA, IDW’s new connected Godzilla universe!
Inside the new IDW Godzilla universe, there exists a mystery larger than any other… what is the Deadzone? Inhabitants of this new world know the Deadzone to be a walled-off portion of the Pacific Northwest, sequestered after the most disastrous Godzilla attack the country has ever faced. The government would have its citizens believe that nothing is still alive inside the Deadzone… but do you believe that?
There are stories of a man. Or rather… a half kaiju, half man… who travels freely throughout the Deadzone. Some say he can even kill a kaiju. Some say… he’s not the only of his kind.
Journey into this mysterious new world in Godzilla: Escape the Deadzone with the Eisner-nominated writing duo Griffin Sheridan and Ethan S. Parker (Kill Your Darlings) and fan-favorite artist Pablo Tunica (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Sea Serpent’s Heir).

The second entry in the Kai-Sei era continues! The Wanderer is a kaiju/human abomination who rarely sees something he hasn’t before, and never sees anything that scares him. That is, until the chest of the largest kaiju he’s ever seen bursts open to reveal a human girl controlling the monster. Before the Wanderer can learn more about this girl, they’re both captured by a mysterious cult known as the Church of Godzilla! What does the church want with them? And more importantly, can they escape alive?!
