Review: Godzilla: Kingdom of Monsters #1

Godzilla returns to comics with a bang. With Eric Powell and Tracy Marsh writing the series and Phil Hester penciling it, I think we are in for something good.

 

THE GOOD:

One of the best things about this comic book was seeing Godzilla in something again. I haven't seen Godzilla in anything for a good while. I really like this issue because it takes into account that people may be barley starting learning about Godzilla. I feel that they are starting a new with a fresh new start. Phil Hester draws Godzilla perfectly to me and I loved the pannels because they aren't just your rettangles and squares. They make them interesting and I really enjoyed it. This issue had some great art and I'm glad to see Godzilla as more of a villian instead of a monster that does a happy dance.. when he wins a battle.

 

THE BAD:

I love Phil Hesters Godzilla, but his people could use a little detail (I acctually sometimes think that this gives the book feel diffrent and is sometimes quite enjoyable) . I think that his Godzilla makes up for this so it dosen't seem that bad.

 

THE VERDICT: 4.5/5 (Amazing)

I'm a huge fan of Godzilla, I have every movie of his and I really enjoyed reading him in a comic book because I love comics a lot. I'm really excited about what is going to happen in this series. I have seem the covers of issue to come and there are Rodian and Angirus so I'm happy about seeing some more monsters coming to the series. Anyone that cares about Godzilla shoud gets this. Anyone who likes reading a good comic should get this!

Godzilla shows up in Tokyo and the Japanese try what they can to stop him!  The Good It's the reintroduction to Godzilla! What's not to love? The creative team of Eric Powell and Tracy Marsh on writing, Phil Hester on pencils, Bruce McCorkindale on inks, and Ronda Pattison on colors a great combination of talent, and that being said, this book is a light and fun read, but it's the per...

   Timing aside, the return of the King of Monsters to the world of sequential art is one that should be heralded.  Headed by a dynamite creative team, does Gojira make a strong first impression? The Folly of Man The story in this Godzilla adaptation is much the same as it is most every Godzilla iteration; the dreaded reptilian beast rises from the shores of Japan and proceeds to go on a rampage.  Although the military attempts to intervene, even their strongest attempts are brushed aside.  With...
