Slugfest | Marvel in June brings us Godzilla, Silver Surfer, Joe Quesada + more

Miles Morales got Ultimate, the X-Men go Giant Sized, Deadpool turns 350 and much more in Marvel’s June solicitations. Did we mention Jeff the Land Shark?

Slugfest is a roundup of cool announcements about projects coming to a shelf near you. This edition focuses on Marvel’s June 2025 solicitations. Hit the links for more information.

David F. Walker and Georges Jeanty present the latest Godzilla vs. Marvel one-shot, as Godzilla continues his trip through time and comes into conflict with the Avengers team circa Brian Michael Bendis’ run in 2004 and beyond.
