IDW's GODZILLA General Discussion

[KaijuX]

Teaser of sorts from Gane himself. Someone at the IDW forum posted this... Man, this is going to be crazy!

The night sky?

I am sort of digging Gane's art. It's been improving since Legends #2.
I have yet to pick up Godzilla #2, but once I return home in August, I am going to order both #2 and #3.

The Moon SKreeeeonnnking!!! At Godzilla.

Pretty sure that's just Godzilla skreeonking with the night sky and the moon in the background. Still looks nice.

Contrary to Popular belief, this is not how the space program operates. In fact, at the size and speed SG goes, they probably wouldn't even notice it, and if they did, assume it was a stray meteor that would get skreeonk up in the atmosphere and hit the ocean at only 25% it's original size.

Are they... are they trying to make the "Godzilla vs. Hedorah" sequel that never was? Or something close, at least. This makes my day.

[KaijuX]

Wow, convincing! Do wonder if Urv is going to take vengeance against Kumonga anytime soon. Also cool to see that a semi-adaptation of GvsH2 is underway.

[GreenAiden555]

*sigh* STILL milking KoM? I have every cover, and I ain't interested in this ultimate mega collection of DOOOOOM.


HCW and the ongoing still look nice.

Now this sounds very cool. A shoutout to the scrapped 'Godzilla vs. Hedorah 2' and exploration of something that could definitely use it.

[kaiju115]

Finally we'll be seeing Mothra again, I do hope there will be a fight between her and Godzilla.

[Megaton17]

I'm PSYCHED for Half Century War.

One thing I've liked about the IDW comics is the inclusion of world wide exotic locations. There's been Sydney in Legends 1, Mongolia in Legends 5, and now Vietnam and Ghana in HCW. I hope to see India and Brazil in the future, maybe Canada like it was seen in the Dark Horse comics.

When does issue 3 come out?
