Godzilla returns, and the world will never be the same! Next up in the Library Collection series is the finale of the Rulers of Earth series!

The Godzilla Library Collection is a comprehensive line of books that will collect every Godzilla comic series by IDW! Volume 5 collects the final 13 issues (#13–25) of the Rulers of Earth series by Chris Mowry, Matt Frank, and Jeff Zornow.

Giant monsters are appearing across the globe and leaving complete devastation in their wake. A mysterious Russian industrialist offers to rid the world of them with his new Mechagodzilla units. Will the new fleet of weaponized robots be enough to stop Godzilla when he returns? Will Godzilla be able to battle the newly created Mecha-King Ghidorah? It’s a war of the machines with Godzilla caught in the middle!
Chris Mowry is a veteran of both the U.S. Navy and the video game industry, having worked for Midway and Sega. For over ten years he has worked as a senior graphic artist for IDW, where he has also written a number of titles. His first project, Transformers: The Reign of Starscream, led to more Transformers-related books, like Transformers: Alliance and Transformers: Defiance (which both appeared on the New York Times bestseller list). After that, Mowry, a lifelong kaiju fan, had a dream come true writing the longest-running Godzilla series in comic history, Godzilla: Rulers of Earth. He’s also written for several other Godzilla series as well as other franchises like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Street Fighter.
