Trivia
- The series will feature the first ever official battle between Godzilla and Zilla since Godzilla: Final Wars. The battle starts in issue #1 and ends in issue #2.
- Zilla possesses the explicit design and abilities of the 1998 "Godzilla," despite being a direct incarnation of the 2004 Zilla.[1] It was confirmed by Chris Mowry in an interview that they used Final Wars' Zilla so that Zilla did not have Godzilla's green atomic breath, and that Zilla first appeared in the 1998 film.
- This marked the first ever comic appearances of Gezora, Manda, Jet Jaguar, Gaira, Sanda, Varan, King Caesar, M.O.G.U.E.R.A., Orga and Biollante, as well as Gezora's first non-video game appearance.
- This comic series also became the first official piece of media to use Gezora, Sanda, and Gaira's copyright icons.
- The Series marked the return of main human protagonist Steven Woods from Godzilla: Kingdom of Monsters.
- This series marks the first time a new monster has been introduced in the IDW Godzilla comics.
- At 25 issues, Godzilla: Rulers of Earth is the longest-running Godzilla comic book series of all time, beating out Marvel Comics' Godzilla: King of the Monsters series by one issue.
- Many cameos and easter eggs are present, including the appearance of Gamera foe, Zigra, appearing outside a Devokian ship.
