“The Coming!”
★ 1st appearance — Godzilla

In "The Coming!", Godzilla emerges from an Alaskan iceberg to wreak havoc on an oil pipeline, prompting S.H.I.E.L.D. to intervene with a laser cannon—only to be overpowered. As the creature retreats, Nick Fury arrives with a Japanese scientist, his assistant, and his grandson, who may hold the key to stopping the rampaging monster. Written by Doug Moench and illustrated by Herb Trimpe and Jim Mooney, with colors by Janice Cohen and letters by Joe Rosen, this 1977 issue features a cover by Herb Trimpe that captures the beast’s terrifying arrival.
