Is it a socialist monster?

[proteus_lives]

Greetings True Believers!

Here's another fun thing I picked up at C2E2. Godzilla: Kingdom of Monsters #1. It's a cool retailer variant I got, they did a fun launch gimmick. They sent special variant covers to supporting comic stores that showed the Big G stomping on their store.

Here are a few fun pages. Enjoy!



Godzilla's back and there is a reaction theme.




I like that picture of Godzilla. It's like he's saying, "Hi everyone, Godzilla, King of the Monsters here."

The military attacks Godzilla and does jack-shit. They decide to nuke him which doesn't have the desired.....effect.



Meanwhile at the Hall of Justice, I mean White House, there is the one man who could stop the beast.



Ha, oh Obama.

Wasn't that Cloverfield?

Cept it didn't have giant mechas, just phenomenally stupid kids with a camera. A real shame.

Not ALL movies with giant monsters are Cloverfield.

Besides, in Cloverfield the monster was an ancient beastie that was hibernating off the coast of New York for millions of years before getting woken up by a falling satellite bashin' it on the noggin. No rifts in reality there.

Though it could definately have been improved by mechas, like a lot of things.

Except Gulliver's Travels.

Or else it was something alien that hitchhiked down with the falling satellite. Frankly, by the time we got round to seeing it I just wished it would hurry up and kill at least the main character for being such a prick, and if it could manage to get the rest of the cast in if it had time, then mavzel tov.

It was...whatever that alien was in Resistance Fall of Man.

Seriously, the moment i actually saw the myriad of beasties, all I could think was how they pretty much just copied from video games. No originality and just banal random fangs and gummy parts.

Also they copied the basic frame of the thing from the alien/grouper/cancer monster in Patlabor 3 which was FAR more impressive and actually horrific (it had a girl's cancer cells spliced in, was going through puberty and developed breasts, AND had some sentience to understand shame so it pulled parts off robots to 'wear' as clothes).
