This is Comic Book Club News for April 15, 2025.
Michael Giacchino To Write Werewolf By Night One-Shot:
Michael Giacchino, the composer and director behind the Disney+ Werewolf by Night special, is going to be writing a one-shot comic book for Marvel about, you guessed it, Werewolf by Night.
Titled Werewolf by Night: Blood Moon Rise, the comic will feature art by David Messina, and rather than set in the MCU, it’ll be in the Marvel Comics Universe — and find the title character going up against Dracula.
Said Giacchino to EW, “It could be a lost story from the original run, in a way. There’s a fun twist to it that I think is going to be really interesting for people who are into Jack Russell and that lore.”
The one-shot will also feature a backup story by Jason Loo, bonus material, and a cover by Tyler Kirkham. Werewolf By Night: Blood Moon Rise #1 hits stores on July 30.
Godzilla To Destroy Marvel Universe In New Miniseries:
What’s next after Marvel’s series of one-shots pitting Godzilla against individual Marvel heroes and teams? The whole shebang, of course, as Godzilla Destroys The Marvel Universe will pit the King of the Monsters against… Everyone.
The five-issue series debuting in July will be written by Gerry Duggan with art by Javier Garrón and will find Godzilla fighting a Celestial, a symbiote bonding with Godzilla, and Godzilla breaking up Spider-Man and Mary Jane’s marriage. Just kidding about the last thing.
This is a busy time for the kaiju, as IDW will be relaunching their own Godzilla universe of books starting in July, and a month earlier, in June, DC Comics will release the first issue of Justice League vs. Godzilla vs. Kong 2.
Godzilla Destroys The Marvel Universe #1 hits stores on July 16.
One World Under Doom #6 To Reveal Doom’s Secret:
For the past few months, Marvel has been portraying Doctor Doom as the savior of humanity in the One World Under Doom event. But as of One World Under Doom #6, it seems like we’ll finally find out the Doctor’s true motivations.
In the issue, per Marvel, the “dark truth behind Emperor Doom’s power is exposed.” That doesn’t necessarily mean he’ll lose, as there are three more issues to go. But it does mean this tricky line the title has been walking in terms of Doom maybe actually being “good” — it’s hard to fault universal healthcare, education, and open borders — may be built on a foundation of lies.
We’ll know more when the issue hits stores on August 6, 2025.
