Godzilla in Hell #1

[baihu]

Exactly what it says on the tin.













And then Godzilla falls through a pit and goes into the next level of Hell, presumably.

First issue doesn't actually say why this is happening, but the next issue preview sets it up that he's fighting demonic versions of all his past enemies. This first monster's Ohga, I think, 'The Thing' style alien monster that can mimic/absorb genetic material like Godzilla's. He killed it in the movie in a very similar fashion, blowing it up from the inside.

Next issue is demon Rodan, and the interior artist is different, I think it looks better. 

So yeah, Dante's Inferno meets kaiju. Gotta say it's pretty original. One thing I didn't add. The first thing Godzilla saw were demonic nuclear power plants, and he approached them like he was hungry. But they were full of tentacle demon offal or something. So maybe we're on the Circle of Gluttony or something, which maybe explains Ohga as well (cause it's thing in the movie as to try to eat Godzilla with its giant mouth).

Yeah also #2 explains WHO sent Godzilla to hell.

Lucifer: ... And trust me when I say that what I'll do to the ones responsible will be /legendary/... Just as soon as I manage to prevent this overgrown lizard from leveling another Principality...
