Kingdom Kong is a graphic novel prequel to Godzilla vs. Kong and sequel to Skull Island: The Birth of Kong written by Marie Anello, illustrated by Mohammad Yazid (credited as "Zid"), and published by Legendary Comics on April 6, 2021.

Description
Template:Quote-no-it
Development
This graphic novel was first alluded to at a Los Angeles Comic Con panel in 2019 when Legendary revealed the first look at the comic's antagonist: the giant bat Titan Camazotz. Mohammad Yazid, or "Zid" as he is credited, was confirmed to be returning as the comic's artist after illustrating Skull Island: The Birth of Kong. Another look at Camazotz was posted on Twitter during Legendary's MonsterVerse Watchalong event in March 2020. During a May 20 digital WonderCon event, Legendary confirmed that Marie Anello, writer of "Fifteen Minutes or Less" from the Shout Out anthology, would be writing the Kong-centric graphic novel and that it would follow an F-35 pilot as the main human character. Several panels from the comic were shown, revealing new images of Camazotz, Kong, the scrapped Icarus Tigris creature from Kong: Skull Island, and the character Houston Brooks.
Plot
Following the events of Skull Island: The Birth of Kong, King Kong clashes with the giant bat Titan Camazotz.
