The big lizard doesn’t look a day over 69.

Believe it or not, the Godzilla film franchise turns 70 this fall, and IDW Publishing will mark the monstrous occasion with a special one-shot, 100-page comic book. Check out the five covers for the collectible comic on this page.

Godzilla: 70th Anniversary–hitting comic book shops May 8–will contain nine original stories headlining the King of the Monsters from such creators as Joelle Jones (Catwoman), Michael W. Conrad (Wonder Woman), Matt Frank (Godzilla: Rulers of Earth), James Stokoe (Godzilla: The Half-Century War), Adam Gorham (Ms. Marvel: The New Mutant) and Dan DiDio (Metal Men).

The striking covers are handled by E.J. Su, Sophie Campbell, Jeffrey Zornow, Tom Whalen and Arthur Adams.

The stories–according to IDW–take Godzilla from the American Old West to modern Tokyo and beyond–fighting with allies like Mothra, against old enemies like Mechagodzilla “and reshaping the lives of all who fall in his path.”
