Godzilla: Rulers of Earth[]
Megaguirus was first spotted in a flash back where she attacked the hunting Gorosaurus only to be downed by a kick from the massive theropod. She was later seen as part of the sky monsters on the Infant Island cave mural.
Megaguirus is next seen in issue #18, where she emerged from her nest in the jungles of Brazil and flew to Sao Paulo, where Godzilla, Ebirah, and the Meganulons were battling. Megaguirus and the Meganulons forced Ebirah to retreat and Megaguirus turned her attention to Godzilla. Megaguirus used her incredible flying speed to avoid Godzilla's atomic breath and tried to sneak up behind him. Godzilla used a nuclear pulse before Megaguirus could reach him, knocking her into a building. Megaguirus stung Godzilla on the leg and drained his energy, then blasted him with a giant atomic fireball. With Godzilla incapacitated, Megaguirus grabbed him and carried him off to her nest. Megaguirus dropped Godzilla into her nest, where hundreds of Meganulons and Meganula surrounded him. Godzilla used his nuclear pulse to destroy the Meganula, and was lifted in the air by the enraged Megaguirus. Godzilla bit into Megaguirus' neck and the two monsters crashed down in Machu Picchu, Peru.
Just as the two monsters prepared to continue their battle, a pod was sent to Earth by the Cryogs, which released several monsters called Trilopods. The Trilopods attacked both monsters, pinning them down and biting them. Some of the Trilopods managed to absorb Megaguirus' DNA and merged together into a Megaguirus-Trilopod hybrid. Megaguirus attempted to fly away, but Godzilla threw a Trilopod at her and knocked her down. Godzilla was then carried away to Los Angeles, California, while Megaguirus was not seen again, leaving her fate unknown.
