Secret Wars featuring: Zoids

Secret Wars featuring: Zoids was a seven-issue limited series published by Marvel UK in 1985, tying the blockbuster Secret Wars crossover into the world of the mechanical Zoids toys. Writers Ian Rimmer and Simon Jacob, who also contributed art, crafted a story where the alien Beyonder’s cosmic battle arena is reimagined as a conflict between the giant, animalistic Zoids machines. This series stands out as a unique, licensed oddity in Marvel’s 1980s output, blending the high-stakes superhero event with a toyetic sci-fi war.
