Toho brought King Ghidorah back for the Heisei series in Godzilla vs. In the chronologically final film of the Showa series, Destroy All Monsters, King Ghidorah was unleashed by the Kilaaks in a desperate final attempt to defend their base of operations from Godzilla and the Earth monsters, only to be killed in battle by their combined might. In Zone Fighter, King Ghidorah was one of the Garogas' Terror-Beasts, and did battle with Zone Fighter twice, managing to escape with his life. Once again, King Ghidorah was beaten by Godzilla, this time aided by Anguirus, and retreated back into outer space with Gigan. Gigan, King Ghidorah was now under the control of the M Space Hunter Nebula Aliens, who deployed him alongside their cyborg monster Gigan to assault the Earth. Godzilla and Rodan teamed up against King Ghidorah again, sending him back into the void of outer space. King Ghidorah was unleashed on Earth once again by the Xiliens, along with Godzilla and Rodan, now under the invaders' control as well, but a group of humans managed to sever the aliens' hold on the monsters. He was driven off by the combined might of Godzilla, Rodan and Mothra, but returned in Invasion of Astro-Monster as a pawn of the Xiliens in their invasion of Earth. Widely considered to be Godzilla's archnemesis, King Ghidorah made his debut in Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster, where he arrived on Earth inside a meteor and prepared to destroy it just as he had done to Venus ( Mars in the American version of the film) thousands of years in the past. King Ghidorah (キングギドラ, Kingu Gidora) is a three-headed dragon kaiju who first appeared in the 1964 Godzilla film, Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster.
