California, situated on the west coast of the United States, is the country's third-largest and most populous state. It was prominently featured as the battleground of the MUTOs and Godzilla in Godzilla, and repeatedly features in IDW Publishing's myriad of Godzilla comics, most notably in their mainline series.

Godzilla
"The Eartheater"
San Francisco was evacuated due to freak earthquakes that swallowed up buildings. At the same time, the Calico arrived at the city so Quinn Darian could attend a science conference. Noticing the Golden Gate Bridge beginning to crumble due to the amount of cars on it, Carl Majors summoned Godzilla, who carried away the broken chunks of the bridge to safety with minor help from Godzooky. Leaving the Calico, the crew descended into tunnels beneath the city, where they encountered the Eartheater. The monster follows them to the surface, where Godzooky called Godzilla again to fight it. The Eartheater fled after a brief battle, and the Calico crew dropped smoke grenades into the tunnels to lure the creature out again. It comes out to attack them, but Godzooky again calls Godzilla, who is stunned by the Eartheater before it retreats. Scouring the city, Godzilla and the Calico crew found the Eartheater perched on the Golden Gate Bridge. With Godzilla's laser eyes and Godzooky distracting it, the bridge crumbles under the Eartheater's weight, dropping it into San Francisco Bay where it turned to mud. After the creature's demise, Pete and Godzooky waterskiied behind the Calico in the bay.
"The Deadly Asteroid"
As the Frios asteroid drew closer and closer to Earth, San Francisco Bay dried up completely.

Reptilian
The Galaxions sent Yonggary to Los Angeles after the monster's revival. He began to rampage through the city, resisting the U.S. military's attempts to stop him until the Daemon was destroyed, freeing Yonggary from the Galaxions' control. Desperate for their invasion to succeed, the aliens sent their own monster, Cycor, down to kill Yonggary and take over Earth. After an intense battle, Yonggary defeated Cycor, and the Galaxions retreated, fear the awakening of Yonggary's "true powers." Afterwards, Yonggary was transported away from the city to an island he could have to himself.

Godzilla
After it was studied for a time, the second MUTO spore was taken to the Yucca Mountain Nuclear Waste Repository, where it lay dormant until the male MUTO's calls awoke it from its slumber 15 years later. Bursting from the mountain, the female MUTO attacked Las Vegas as she made her way to the male. Meeting up in San Francisco, the two MUTOs exchanged a stolen nuclear war head before the female began digging a nest. Godzilla arrived in the harbor, and after a brief skirmish with the military resulting in the destruction of the Golden Gate Bridge, entered the city. Godzilla engaged and killed both MUTOs while Ford Brody took the nuclear warhead out to sea on a tour boat. While Godzilla left the city, relief efforts were set up to help those effected by the Titan's clash.
Godzilla: King of the Monsters
In the wake of the MUTOs and Godzilla's fight in 2014, San Francisco was abandoned and was swiftly reclaimed by nature due to the Titans' radiation.

Heritage
Emergency sirens blared on Batavia Island off the coast of Northern California. United World News reporter Jack Martin, his wife, Kaori, and his colleague Mitch Lawrence ran out of a building and into a fleeing mob as cries for help filled the air. In the chaos, a large explosion echoed in the background, illuminating the silhouette of Anguirus. They fled from the creature, with Mitch reporting that there are two Anguirus in the area. Jack kissed Kaori before he ran off to pursue the rampaging pack. The Anguirus pack, now known to be two adults and one offspring, moved deeper into the city, with Jack following. The next morning, Jack ran down an empty street, only for the building behind him to collapse and reveal a skull-faced Anguirus. The monster heard Godzilla's roar in the distance and walked past Jack, but its tail damaged a nearby building, burying him in the rubble. Godzilla made landfall and destroyed another building near Jack with his atomic breath. Kaori and a limping Mitch found Jack unconscious and injured, but still alive. Once he is conscious again, the group argues over Jack's obsessive willingness to continue chasing the monsters. Suddenly, Godzilla reappeared and faced off with the Anguirus pack. The monsters roared challenges at each other.
