This third
entry in the series introduces one of Dark Horse's better-done
creations in their Godzilla comic line, Bagorah; a bat-like
space creature capable of emitting a sonic-based attack
from its throat. Bagorah doesn't actually fight Godzilla
in this issue, as the cover might lead one to think;
instead, the story revolves around introducing Bagorah
and its fight with Cybersaur. Despite the false promise
of a battle between Godzilla and the space monster,
this issue is fairly entertaining. The issue takes a
more traditional approach in handling the new monster,
having him briefly fight Cybersaur as his sonic power
is revealed, and then facing off against the metal monster
again near the end of the issue before Godzilla awakes
to lead into Godzilla
King of the Monsters #4. The dialogue here is
adequate, a little better than the previous issues.
The artwork, however, appears to be on a downward spiral.
It's even worse than last issue and the difference in
quality between the first is more than apparent. Coloring
is about on par with Godzilla
King of the Monsters #2, which means not as
detailed or precise as it could be. The cover, on the
other hand, is once again awe-inspiring as Arthur Adams
gives a very detailed, however misleading, shot of Godzilla
and Bagorah facing off with the fallen Cybersaur in
the background and Type 90 Tanks on the ground. |
