I have them. I always thought they were kinda cool since (unlike Dark Horse Godzilla), the Gamera books had a few of Gamera's enemies in it. I definitely remember Gyaos and Viras. I forget who the others were.

It was Gyaos, Zigra and Viras. Unfortunately, the series ended before anyone else could show up.

This sounds really cool, wish I could get my hands on a couple of these. Never knew they existed until today.

They're not that great and this is coming from a HUGE Gamera fan. The art is kind of lacking, the story merely so-so and the characters non-existant. But, if you're a big Gamera fan it might be worth checking out if you can find these cheaply. Just don't get your hopes up too much.

Horrible comics. But better then the IDW KOM books.

I think this was the series that started DHP buying the rights to comics to either adapt to comic form, or just use movie images on their books.

They are ok (I have the 4 issue series). But I really like that this inspired Trendmasters to do a line of 4" figures, those were pretty cool! I wish I still had those.
There has never been a "Scientifically Accurate" Dinosaur portrayed on any Television Show, Movie, or Documentary. Only what the human imagination can conceive, and I'm ok with that.
