When those terrifying gods came, and they transformed this place... they did so with purpose. They rained fire and death and destruction... down on a godless people to remind us of who we really are. We are ants. We were made to kneel. Designed to worship at the feet of unimaginable power. We are not lost, my children. We are the subjects of their kingdom. The kingdom of Godzilla.

History
- Godzilla: Escape the Deadzone #2–6 (2025–2026) [mentioned in #3; indirect mention in #4]
Godzilla: Escape the Deadzone
Issue #2
After the Wanderer was captured by the Church of Godzilla, Mother A personally visited his holding cell. She remarked about his appearance and the mutant's ability to sniff out her stockpile of Kai-Sei energy. The Wanderer threatened that he would be able to get out his chains soon, which Mother A did not dispute, merely retorting he wait till after she completes her sermon. Addressing new arrivals to her cult seeking purpose and community, she gave her sermon about how they should honor and worship the kaiju that have reshaped their world and who have emerged to remind humanity of their true purpose as lowly subjects beneath their feet. Before she is able to complete her sermon however, the Wanderer bursts out of the floor and begins causing chaos. While momentarily awed by the Godzilla-esque form of the mutant, she quickly ordered a few of her followers to lock up the twins Glasseater and Runt during the carnage, only for the Wanderer to tear through the guards and escape with the twins. In disbelief, Mother A ordered anyone available to search far and wide for the fugitives, and commented that there would be nowhere safe for them to hide this deep in the Deadzone.
Issue #3
After being questioned about whether or not their names were real or just nicknames, Glasseater and Runt explained to the Wanderer that they chose the names for themselves, something that Mother A refused to use for them.
Issue #4
While searching for the Wanderer, Glasseater, and Runt, Norman informed his teammate to notify Mother A about having finally made visual on them.
Issue #5
In the midst of the Wanderer and Sherry Dottsman's fight with the kaiju Baragon in a kaiju gladiatorial arena, Mother A and her followers arrived to face down the Deadzone suburbanites that arranged the fight and retrieve the fugitives.
Issue #6
Sometime after the initial escape of the Wanderer and the twins, Mother A was approached by two G-Force operatives under orders by Major General Daniel Onishi. Mother A expressed her frustration at his late response, but accepted their offer to help retrieve the trio. Norman, a member of the new arrivals to the Church, offered to be part of the scout team, to which Mother A complimented him on his dedication to the cause. Upon arriving to the kaiju cage match between the Wanderer, Sherry, and Baragon, Mother A instructed some of her followers to keep the Deadzone residents busy while she lead another party to look for Glasseater and Runt. She would manage to find only the former before Godzilla arrived to wreck havoc. After the mayhem, she would eventually find Runt with the Wanderer, and prepared to face off against the mutant. Before the two could fight however, Godzilla intervened and nearly crushed Mother A, Glasseater, and Runt underfoot, only being saved due to the Wanderer sacrificing himself for them to get away.
